About the Commission of Rose
Callum Mould emailed me in 2015 as he wanted to get a really special present for his girlfriend's Christmas gift. Her horse was called Rose, and he had secretly collected lots of photos without his girlfriend knowing.
Callum picked out a few of his favourites that he felt captured Rose well and left me to come up with a design for the portrait. I took some time to create several compositions and designs for Callum to view.
He loved one particular design, and we tweaked it until we came up with the perfect composition for Rose. Callum also asked if, instead of adding Rose鈥檚 name on the portrait, I could include a drawing of a rose instead鈥攑erfect! I was very happy to oblige.
The portrait was completed at 18 x 14 inches and was also framed by our local framer. Below, you can read some emails from Callum when he saw the final portrait and after he received it.
