James & Carine (by Alex)

(click to enlarge)

Being away for almost 4 weeks now, and I could already feel that my hands were starting to squeek :)
Anyway, this is a picture I drew for my friends who are getting married in July this year. It is not at all accurate, but I hope they'd appreciate it anyway.
So James and Carine, if you guys are looking at the blog, CONGRATULATIONS! ^^

P.S. : Thank you so much for all your kind words on my previous posts, the daisy and Rachel. I really really appreciate them ;) Happy drawing everyone!

  4. I'm sure they'll more than appreciate it - what a generous and thoughtful gift.
    Your previous portraits posted on here (ie Rachel, Anne, Philipp and Eskil) look very accurate to me so can't see why this would be any different :-)
    You've got a real talent.

    your work is so good, I really like your way with colors, The cherry blossom and Temple in Osaka is incredible, made me think of a collage.
