This is a portrait I did for two friends who's 18th birthdays were very close and so they had their parties together. They are also a couple which have been together for... a year and around 3 months I think. So this was a joint present which they liked very much. I think I caught Jasern's cheeky expression which suits his character very well, but I wasn't quite as happy with charlotte. She looks like charlotte and I like her warm giggly expression which matches what she is really like; but as always, the mouth let me down slightly. Still a good attempt though; best pencil portrait I have made so far. I like the ink trees in the back ground which adds a new dimension to the peice; and gives it a colder feeling. Part of the sentiment is a close couple keeping together, sort of looking out for each other; as they are both wearing scarves suggesting it is cold and the opressive trees give a darker feeling. But the smiles on their faces show they really dont care; and not a lot really does matter between people if there a layer of love in between. Best of luck to them both; hope i know them still years down the line.
