I saw it as a challenge and was thinking about different ways to execute the picture.
At first I really wanted to use the purple color and thought of using Photoshop, maybe Illustrator..
But in the end I just grabbed a bunch of grey pencils and started to reproduce the picture. As it was the first time I made a drawing this realistic, I was a bit worried but I found it worked really well and was amazed with the result.
It may not be the exact image but it does capture the strong eyes she has, and I think Noortje really liked it!
And yesterday I made a pencil drawing of an other friend,
for his birthday gift I wanted to draw him but so far I haven't found the time to do it.
Because I knew the first one looked real nice I thought it would be a great gift.
It is nearly finished but I will show it after I handed the picture, I do want it to be a surprise!
Here is the picture I made for Noortje (original Photo is done by her mum, Vivian van Oorschot)
And the drawing I made for Jeroen.
Because he was smoking pipe in the picture I decided to do a reference to Rene Margritte and write:
ceci nést pas un pipe?
Mais non! c'est un Joen
(my nickname for Jeroen :)
