Welcome to my latest pencil drawing of Kegan. I have been working on a beautiful drawing as a gift for Fathers Day. It was for a family who had recently lost their beautiful dog, Kegan. Their daughter Daisy commissioned a pencil pet portrait of her, for them all to remember her by. Her soulful eyes are beautiful and she was an absolute joy to draw.
Daisy very kindly sent me photos of her parents when they received the portrait. The photo below is before they knew what it was! Have a read of Daisy beautiful email below.
Hi Melanie,
They are blown away by your drawing of Kegan, they can’t believe all the details within and her signature sad eyes. There were lots of tears shared, they are still really struggling without her but that picture means more than words can say.
The first photo is them still clueless but smiling and the second was seconds before the tears started rolling. Thank you so much again.
Best wishes, Daisy Solomon
Here is another photo of Kegan with my pencils to show scale.
And finally a quick photo of the portrait with the packaging.
Pencil Drawing of Kegan
We are so grateful to Daisy for sharing her story and for trusting us to create this portrait of Kegan. It’s always an honour to be part of such personal and meaningful moments, and we’re deeply touched to know the drawing has brought comfort during a difficult time. We hope that, when the time comes, seeing Kegan’s portrait on the wall will be a source of peace and love for the whole family.
