Description ©2005 Sarah B. Seiter – 11” x 14” pencil - Do not use without permission

My mother commissioned me to do this one. It is based on the above photo of her holding me as a baby She wanted us to be fairies.

I know it’s not done yet, but I wanted to show everyone anyway *grins*

P.S. I do take commissions for these types of portraits (based on a photo), so let me know if you are interested and I’ll send an estimate based on what you want.

Hi I just returned from a week long convention out of town. Sorry for the delay in replying.

I do take commissions. Pricing will depend on whether you would like color, pencil, or black & white. Also, the size you would like it to be is a factor. Please let me know a little more.

Thanks,
~Sarah~

My goodness. I'm definitely interested in a similar commission. Although I would want an air of guardianship and protection about it. I'd be happy to explain my story to you in detail and why I'm interested in such a commission. What do you think?

Well from what I can see there you did a wonderful job, I'm sure your mother loved it. I know I would have.

I'm such a dork, but I come back and look at this one all the time. It's just so beautiful, like the photo.

I did finish it so I guess I should post it lol Just have to scan it, but since it is rather large and framed, it's not likely to happen for a while.

It would be nice to see! They just need to make jumbo sized scanners is all.

You must post the completed picture when you're done. Absolutely beautiful.

unknownchild [2006-02-08 02:10:56 +0000 UTC]

this is great the baby is adorable but i think u shud make your mother's eye a bit bigger and her nose a bit pointier like a faery but besides that its amazing!

I am really touched by this piece of work and look forward to seeing it finished. I think I would like to see my babies as fairies....... the time is so very fleeting.

Hi!
Yes, your mother is beautiful That was my first thought as well

You are really good with pencil

I just wanted to give my opinion of two small things - it might be too late by now already, but - to think about next time, maybe
Take the mother's shoulder back by drawing the line behind her arm instead of before as it is now. (I don't know if I'm being clear here...) That make the stretched neckline more natural and clear, and expresses trust. You can see the line in the photo as well.
Also, give the child a wing in front of the mother's hand - you can see the baby's shoulder where the wing would be clearly. You can make the wings fragile, see-through, if you wish to show the hand, you could also make them little wrinkled, as new-born butterfly wings.

Hugs and good luck with your work
Ket
