Valentine's Giveaway: A Hand-Drawn Portrait!

I'm currently doing a giveaway through my other blog, The Blue Basket, for a free hand-drawn portrait! These portraits are perfect for weddings, anniversaries, birthdays, Christmas... or Valentine's! The winner of this giveaway will receive one free portrait (up to 2 subjects—a $175 value) It could be of you, your parents, your kids, a friend... whoever you choose. Go to my blog to enter.

Personality

Some of my favorite portraits to do are the ones where the person is looking away or making a face that shows their personality. These drawings of R and M show a side of their personality that a straight forward, shoulders and up portrait might not. Such cute kids!

And the winner is...

Kasee! Congratulations! Kasee is the lucky winner of the free portrait drawing. But if you had your heart set on a hand-drawn portrait of you, your spouse, your kids or someone else close to you, then you're in luck! You can still have it done. It just won't be free.

Enter to win a FREE PORTRAIT!

You could win a FREE PORTRAIT! Enter your name in the drawing by leaving a comment on this post telling me who you would have me draw (no specific names needed). A child, your parents, a couple soon to be married... whoever it may be! For additional entries you can like my Facebook page or become a follower of this blog. Up to three entries per person. Drawing will be held February 1. Winner will receive a FREE portrait (up to 2 subjects). Good luck!

Capture your child in a unique way

Have the youthfulness of your child frozen in time with something other than a photograph. This portrait will always remind T's parents of her beautiful eyes and sweet smile.

Portraits make great wedding gifts

A hand-drawn portrait makes an unforgettable and meaningful wedding (or anniversary!) gift. For this one, I used T & E's engagement picture to capture this moment in time they will never want to forget.

Some favorites

Here are a couple of my favorites. You can click on the image to get a closer look at the detail of my drawings. This first one is one of my little boys. I've always loved his smile!

The second one is my parents-in-law when they got married. I used pictures from two different photographs and combined them into one. They make a handsome couple!
