Welcome to my pencil pet portrait of Daisy. Mary contacted me to see if I would be able to draw a portrait of Daisy for her daughters birthday gift. Her favourite photos were on a CD which she sent via FedEx with notes of her favourite photos.
I always love seeing plenty of photos of the pets I draw, especially to have lots of choice as to which ones to work with. My chosen photo was perfect! Also Barnes and Noble had used that particular photo of Daisy in a calendar which sold in their books stores too.
I drew the portrait to the size of 20 x 16. Mary emailed when she received the portrait and you can read a snippet of her email below..
Hi Melanie,
BREATHTAKING! The gentleman at the framing shop couldn’t stop looking and bragging about your work. You are a very talented woman. Left one of your cards with them. I couldn’t be more pleased, because your work is superb.

We would like to officially thank our client Mary for taking these beautiful photos of my pencil portrait of Daisy. She is now framed and standing on the display easel in their home. The frame that has been chosen is fabulous as it shows off its stunning black and antique pewter frame. It works really well with the drawing. The framer has done a marvellous job! We love receiving photos from our clients. It really allows us to see what our portraits look like in their forever home. Thank you Mary!
