Pencil Drawing Of Ellie
Welcome to the Pencil drawing of Ellie commissioned by returning client Jo and her family. I have been working with Jo’s family for a number of years. You might have recently seen the Cuddly Toy of Piggy drawing she commissioned for her niece just before Christmas. Consequently Jo’s niece loved her portrait. I received a beautiful photo of her and her portrait for posterity!
The portrait of Ellie was for Jo’s brother and his wife who wanted a pencil drawing of their dog called Ellie. They also opted to have a double portrait with a drawing of Ellie as a puppy, incorporating a full body of Ellie sitting behind.

The photos below are of the portrait with my pencils on my plan chest in the studio before framing the portrait. They tend to show the portraits in a more natural way. The drawing was a 16 x 12 pencil on Italian Fabriano paper which is definitely my favourite paper to draw on.


Pencil Drawing Of Ellie Framed
The Albony Onyx Frame is one of our favourite frames for pencil drawings. Hayseed and mushroom colour mounts also really compliment the frame well. The mushroom colour mount really enhances the pewter frame, as the colours vary within the frame itself in different light. Ranging from silver to a warm silver bronze colour, it really catches the light well. Hopefully the photos below show the frame well, so you can see how pretty it is.

If you would like your portrait framed using the Albany Onyx frame, please do drop me a line from my website. Also let me know yours ideas for a portrait and I can get a quote for you from our framer.
