Merry Christmas!

I just wanted to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas!  I have been so blessed to have the opportunities that I have been given in the last couple of months.   I am so excited for all of the pictures I have done and the many more that I have planned!  I will start back on pictures probably after the 1st.  I have been working graves for the last several months and I start back on a day shift starting January 1st.  Have a feeling my sleeping schedule is going to be a little messed up the first couple of days.  Once I can get adjusted again, I will jump right back into drawing.  I know that I have people counting on me, and I promise to get your pictures done as soon as I can. 

Here is wishing you and your loved ones a Happy Holiday Season!

Love, 

Kelli 

How Exciting!

I had to share this!  I have never seen one of my pictures professionally matted and framed before.  And I was so nervous about this picture but it looks so good!  I am so glad they shared this with me!

Hello!

The holidays are almost here and I have been busy working on pictures.  I am working on my last one due by Christmas.  It made me actually update my pricing page to request that pictures taken from a cell phone to not be used.  I am having a heck of time with the picture I am working on because there is just not enough details in the faces for me to know if I am accurately drawing them.   So I am having to request another picture.  I feel bad doing this but I don't feel I can create a picture that either one of us would be very happy with.  This is still a learning process for me, so it may not be unusual for me to keep tweaking this as I go. 

Hello!

We are down to one week til Christmas, the time is flying by very fast!  I just finished another portrait (below) this morning and I have one more to get done before Christmas.  I never ever thought that I would be so busy doing something that I love - pretty cool!  ;o)   I hope everyone is having a fantastic Holiday Season!

Hi!

I have posted a new picture and I am quite proud of it!  Its called "Best Friends", it was pretty challenging but I but I believed it turned out quite well.  :o)  I am finally catching up with my Christmas orders and I can't even express how happy I am that I have this opportunity to do something that I love.   I have a few more pictures to do and I will post them once they are completed.  I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday season and remember that spending time with family and friends is really what this season is about.  Take care!

New Pictures!

Hello!

I have added 3 pictures I have completed in the last week.  I am not posting them on Facebook to hopefully not give away someone's Christmas present.  I am keeping quite busy though! It feels like I have 2 full time jobs, both with overtime right now :o) But being able to get these three done and have another one almost done is making me feel much better.    The picture I am currently working on has unbelievable amount of detail in the background and its taking longer to do than I expected.  It is probably one of the hardest pictures I have done and I am trying very hard to do a really good job on it.  Though I will be the first admit that I wish I had a teacher to go to this week for advice :o)  Definitely a learning process, but I want my client happy with the end result.  :o)  I will post on here once its completed!
