Dual Portraits

 Close ups

Graphite on paper...approx 6x6.

This is my contribution to this week's WDE at Wet Canvas. Valri was the gracious host this week who provided a bunch of great photos.

Even though Valri and Mackenzie aren't officially blood related ( her fiance is the grandfather), I suspect a lot of love and bonding are in the offing. This just seemed like a great pair for a dual portrait.

Just a sketch in graphite and a wee bit of color pencil for variety and accent.
Approx. 6x6.

C&C welcome. Thanks for stopping to look and leaving a comment!  

Psalm 37:4-5       "Delight yourself in the LORD, and he will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the LORD; trust in him, and he will act."

    1. Thanks, Hilda....Composing like this tends to be a "head scratcher" many times.
