ubgoofy2003 Posted January 1, 2015 Report Share Posted January 1, 2015 (edited) I just finished this portrait for a customer. A friend recommended me to them & I am pleased to do these types of portraits. It is a two person portrait on a 1/4in. BBirch ply & an oak frame. I really enjoy doing portraits, although I love to do wildlife too. I'm an outdoor person. It helps to have a little art talent when doing the things that I do. I even do some painting & wood burning too. Take a look & let me know how you feel about it. Thanks for looking & Take Care.

ubgoofy2003 Posted January 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2015 Thank you all so much for your kind words. I really enjoy doing these. Yes to you Dan, I always make my own patterns for personal portraits. It is so heartwarming to know that someone is happy with what you do. In particular when we enjoy doing the work so much. I always look forward to the next one. Just a great big thank you to all of you. Take Care Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

penquin Posted January 4, 2015 Report Share Posted January 4, 2015 Well done, it looks super. That sweather had to be a bid of a stresser to do in the pattern but you really did it right. Thanks for sharing it with us. jim penquin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubgoofy2003 Posted January 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2015 Thank you all again. Penquin, I was a little nervous about doing the sweater, because of all the detail. I was afraid it would be too much & take away from the actual portrait. But, they were happy with it as it is, & I'm happy too. Thanks again.
