I somewhat recently started pet portraits for friends who either lost their fur babies or just REALLY wanted portraits done.
My friend had a kitty that had a lot of health problems his whole life but she gave him the best life imaginable. He was a lucky guy! Unfortunately he ended up losing his fight with cancer and she was/is devastated. She kept asking how she was going to get through the day without being able to look into his eyes and talk to him. I decided I wanted to do something nice and give a little piece of him back to her and draw a portrait for her, so she can still look into those beautiful eyes and talk to him whenever she wants.
Here is the photo and the drawing I did using colored pencils:
sorry for the terrible cell phone pic!
I created the look of a painting by pressing REALLY hard and blending over top.
The best part....She LOVES it! <3
That was so sweet of you to do!! It is gorgeous!
