  3. There's always something so satisfying about looking at your portraits. They seem so perfectly contained and yet to have such a depth of emotion. Thankyou for sharing them!

  6. oh, this is your best yet. LOVE it!

    We have a framed painting of Daniel (age 3) in our lounge room - it is strikingly similar to your style and to Casper's features. I'll take an IG shot and tag you x

    1. I usually do a quick sketch and then paint it in later, but this time he wanted to stay and watch! Although I did have to paint the shirt later on when Casper was sleeping!
