About the Commission of Cassanova
Jane and Mark called me in March 2016 to ask if I would be able to create a Life Story Portrait drawing of their daughter’s horse, Cassanova. Their daughter, Olivia, was turning 18, and they wanted to surprise her with a drawing. They had been looking at my website for some time and were preparing everything needed for a portrait.
They selected one main photo for the central drawing and four additional studies to complete the Life Story Portrait. They had some great existing photos of Olivia with Cassanova but also took a few new ones at the stables to make sure they had the perfect selection.
Jane and Mark also requested the portrait to be framed so that it was ready to wrap for Olivia’s big day. I took a video of the finished drawing, which you can see below, along with some lovely testimonials and photos of Olivia with her portrait. I hope you enjoy viewing them!
