Ten days of "a drawing a day" and still going strong!
Yesterday I drew one of our lovely cows.....
We have about 140 cattle and they all look different.
Each have their own unique "hairstyle" tufty thing on top of their head. This one was pretty tame - some have quite alarming mops up top!
This girl is a Limousin cross - so a lovely caramel colour with blonde highlights on her face.
Ain't she a stunner?
Today's portrait is my Princess Mia - at 7 years old (last year).
Took ages to get right - I think it's harder when you draw your loved ones cos they need to be SO exact or they just look plain weird!
Really happy with the result though - a very close likeness.
Right down to the freckles and the long long dark lashes Mia is known for.
She is wearing a hoodie - fabric folds are tricky!
See you soon.
