Pencil Portrait of Faith

Dominic contacted through my website, to draw this pencil portrait of his sister, who had just passed her Leading Firefighters exam, as a congratulatory birthday present.

I was very happy to include the emblems of the two fire services she has worked for and all of her gear - athough drawing it all was quite a challenge..

Heaven knows how she manages to move with all that stuff attached!

Dear Basi,

The portrait of my sister arrived safely today and surpassed all expectation and the preview scan you kindly provided. My sister was bowled over by the portrait and all the detail you included. She was absolutely stunned and rushing to get it framed. The likeness was amazing especially with the limited material from me you had to work with.

Thank you so very much for helping create such a perfect gift for my sister passing her Leading Firefighter exams.

Kind regards,

Dominic
