Character Practice Portraits for School Fair...!

These are two practice portraits I’m doing as preparation for a local Primary School fair I will have a stall at in a few weeks time. They were designed and painted by me.

I want to do some simple character portraits in gouache paint on site as well as the possibility of completing them once the fair is over if demand is high. I’m trying to complete them in about 40 minutes each.

20% of the money for these particular portraits will be given to the school to help raise money for their own purposes.

I hope to be able to complete a few whilst I’m there. I’m looking forward to it!

A small painting for my mum!

It was my mum's birthday a few days ago, so I decided to paint her a little something. It took longer than I thought as the brush I used wasn't small enough! But that said, I enjoyed painting it.

This is inspired by Jan Pienkowski's illustrations in his 'Snow White' book belonging to my mum. I used to read it a lot as a child and it still inspires me to this day.

This was painted with gouache.
