I have completed this portrait a few weeks ago. It is of a lovely boxer called Alfie and his owner Jacqueline. It was commissioned as a wedding present for Jacqueline to remind her of Alfie, who sadly passed away. He was a very important part in her life and her friends wanted to give her a special gift of his portrait. This is what the client said when the drawing was finished:
“It’s amazing! Cannot get over it. She’s just going to love it”
I just loved the photo I received as a reference. It was taken with a phone and wasn’t very detailed, but the setting was just perfect. It is Jacqueline with Alfie taking their walk on the beach with the sun creating the most wonderful colours. The client was thinking of getting a painting, but I just knew a coloured pencil drawing would work really well. It created a really soft image of the two best friends. I hope you all like it too. The drawing is 30 x 30 cm in size and posted in a mount.
