This is a commission I did for someone I bumped into on the A19 outside Morpeth, and I do mean literally bumped into, (I kind of bumped my car into the back of his and after exchange details etc), he rang me up out of the blue and asked for this commission as he recalled I was an artist of sorts from my card. Doesn't life meander in weird ways!Still using the reference photo he provided me with, I sketched his parents (he wanted a Christmas prezzie) on A3 cartridge paper , and had to use my vast collection of Derwent graphic pencils (well 4H, 2H, H, HB, B 2B and 4B to be precise). The hardest areas of this sketch was the man's silver hair and the woman's floral patterned top, the latter, which I feel compliments her sketch.
