Here is the finished portrait sketch of Calpe and Capri. Specs: Arches 140# hot press (smooth) paper, HB pencil.
Details, details...
• The background scene is of a Capri seaside, complete with cool architecture built into the oceanside mountain rock formations.
• Round, big pottery vases flanking the sides of the portrait are like ones you might see in Capri
• Butterflies dotting some border details are representational and were included per client's wishes
• A small blue jay stuffie is Calpe's favorite toy
• Block "M" letter center top represents an alma mater
•Single engine Cessna Skylane aiplane depicted in the center of the sky
• Beautiful lush flowers and greenery (like you would see in Capri) decorate the border
• Ocean is represented complete with weathered boats
• Cats are posed in the same manner as when they recline in real life
Next up:
Awaiting final approval on this sketch. After that I am inking the piece. (I will have a SPECIAL SURPRISE for you when I post the inked-in portrait!)
