Christmas Commissions 2016 - Pets & Portraits

29/12/2016

0 Comments

 
This year I was extremely busy with Christmas Commissions - I had 5 to complete in the space of 6 weeks, normally a portrait can take 3 - 5 weeks each so it was a very busy time. All were completed and delivered out to the Commissionees and here are the portraits alongside information on each and the customer testimonials.
​
Springer Spaniel sat on grass in front of border plants

Buddy the Springer Spaniel  -  11" x 14"

Buddy's portrait was created using 5 different photographs. The body taken from this photo, the head from another, the tail from a third, the background from a fourth and some of the background flowers from a fifth image, all cut and pasted together to create the mock up of the reference image. Doing this can throw a whole lot of problems into the mix as different images can have different lighting, luckily I was able to ensure the correct balance as I was provided with lots of great quality photos that i could pull detail from. As you would suspect the grass took the longest as each blade of grass was applied individually and this was done in 3 layers so individually repeated 3 times!

"​​I'm sitting looking at Buddy in pride of place on the wall, photo attached! It is absolutely lovely and it had the desired effect on Steve when he unwrapped - there were tears!! Everyone that has seen it has said how amazing it is with the amount of fine detail and so Buddy. If I manage to get a decent photo of Buddy next to it I will send it on!  Thank you once again, it is lovely to have a painting of Buddy forever."

Dudley the Springer Spaniel  -  9" x 12" in Acrylics

This was a lovely composition but a tiny photo meaning that it pixelated when zooming in and the detail was lost in the face, especially around the eyes. The Commissionee loved the composition so much that I decided to see what I could do and asked if she could send some close up photos of Dudley taken in a less sunny environment and using all the photos together, I elaborated on the background/foreground somewhat and toned down the colouration on his head whilst still keeping the favoured stance. This was a challenge but I really loved the composition too and was happy with the final painting.

The final painting
"​​Just wanted to let you know that mum loves her portrait and we all cried our eyes out when we first saw it. What you've done is so special and we couldn't have asked for a better painting to remember him by. It captures his brilliant personality so well.  I'll definitely be recommending you to my spaniel loving friends!

Photo of a Japanese Akita looking at the camera
The Commissionee only had a few photos of Kita who they had recently lost and so I was limited to flash photos. This image was a nice pose but as flash distorts natural colour I had to guess the balance by using online photos as reference. The image was slightly blurry up close but I found that I was able to apply a lot of fine detail simply by being aware of the fur shortness and the final portrait was far more detailed than I thought possible due to the quality of the photo. The final painting was framed in a lovely black frame which helped Kita's portrait to stand out.

"​Hi Karen,  I just wanted you to know that I absolutely love my painting of Kita.  Thank you so much, you have done the most amazing portrait of him. He was my best friend and my little boy and the painting has been hung in the living room so we can all admire him everyday! Thank you again xx"

Diarmid E-mailed me a great photo of himself, his girlfriend Max and their little French Bulldog Kyla stood in front of the famous red phone box from the film 'Local Hero' when they visited Pennan in Aberdeenshire. As the phone box only covered half the background and the other half would add nothing to the composition it was decided to leave the background out completely and simply write 'Pennan' in the corner of the portrait. As mobile phone images tend to 'flatten' detail, the fineness of the Coloured pencils brought back the sharpness of detail and I really enjoyed creating this portrait - I always love a challenge!

"​Hi Karen , Hope you had a lovely Christmas. Wanted to drop you a note to say that Max absolutely loved the portrait! She couldn't believe how well you'd captured the detail from the photo and was thrilled to pieces!  We've already recommended you to friends and family and am sure we'll use your amazing skills again in the the future.  Have a great New Year!!  ​Diarmid"

Bearded Collies duo female and male photograph
​This portrait was the last drawing I completed for Christmas and depicts 2 Bearded Collie's called Pyppa (L) & William (R) completed in Coloured pencils. I had taken some photos of them both a year earlier but as William (R) is a rather nervous little boy, I struggled to get any close ups of him. trying to distinguish between them after a year was a challenge too! I was provided with a few great quality photos which I could also use to add in their eyes a little more too.

Murphie - Large Traditional Heart Memorial portrait


Murphie sadly passed away in December 2015 aged 20 years of age and her Mum was looking for something special as a memorial to Murphie and came across my Traditional Hearts portraits and got in touch. It is always a real challenge when it comes to black & white animals as you tend to find that a lot of definition is lost in photos as it is very difficult to strike a balance of these colours whilst still retaining detail however, through various layering of

paint colours including grey and brown tones added to the black fur and with greys added to the white fur I was able to create an equal balance of colour and detail to ensure perspectives were kept in check and the final portrait was as close a likeness to Murphie's photo as possible. Feedback from Murphie's Mum upon receipt told me that I had done a good job!

Finally at home
"Murphie arrived home safe and sound this afternoon and what can I say.  The photos were fantastic but she is even better now I can see her in "close up".   I always knew it would be hard to lose Murphie after having her in my life for 20 years but I didn't fully appreciate just how big of a hole she would leave behind.  Your painting has given me little bit of my girl back and I can't seem to tear my eyes away from it at the moment.  I attach a photo so that you can see that she arrived unscathed and thank you again for everything.  You made the process so easy from start to finish and you took good care of my girl and have created a truly fitting memorial to her and for that I am so grateful"

Bailey - 10" x 12" Coloured pencil pet portrait


Bailey is the second portrait completed in Coloured pencils for his Mum after heartbreakingly losing both Bailey and Casey (the first portrait) in close succession of each other and was gifted both portraits by a good friend. Bailey was originally sat on a green stripey rug but I thought it would suit the portraits if they were both sat on the same wooden

flooring so that they would compliment each other once framed and hung next to each other.    
" Bailey just arrived! Well, about 15 minutes of tape removal ago. We are so chuffed! Bailey was loved by all of us, but loves my husband best, he was over the moon! We are blessed by your talent!
I just love him! Thank you so much!

Obe - 11" x 14" Boxer Dog Acrylic painting


I was asked to create an Acrylic painting of Obie the Boxer dog as a surprise gift to a lady in the USA. The reference photo was a beautiful pose and of great quality and I was able to gather lots of detail from the reference image to create this special memorial painting of Obe.
Picture

All my Acrylic paintings are created using a mixture of professional paint colours and ​mediums which offer texture to the painting. The background texture was created using a palette knife and texture was limited on Obie himself except for a light layering of fur texture. Nearly 40 Facebook friends clubbed together to book this surprise portrait of Obe and it was lovely to hear how happy the recipient was upon receiving such a thoughtful gift from great friends!

Bailey the Pug/Jack Russell cross - Pet portrait Commission progress

Progress so far of a coloured pencil jack russell pug pencil portrait with caran dache luminance pencils
This is Bailey a Jack Russell/Pug cross, being completed in Coloured pencils for a returning Commissionee. The first portrait I completed for them was of their little Jack Russell Casey, who they had recently lost to the Rainbow bridge, and sadly little Bailey followed his friend a few months later - just heartbreaking.

This portrait of Bailey was adapted to also include the floorboards that Casey was pictured laying on in his portrait to ensure continuity and balance when they are both sat side by side on the wall. Bailey was originally sat on a green striped rug but things like this can be requested and if possible, adapted to suit the commissionee.

On The Easel - Airedale/Paterdale Terrier cross in Coloured pencils

26/4/2016

Airedale/paterdale terrier being completed in Coloured pencils by UK artist
This is the latest Pet portrait I have been working on recently - an Airedale/Paterdale Terrier cross being created in Coloured pencils. I was lucky enough to get to meet Dave and take some photographs of him for the reference image and so have some wonderful images with great colour and detail to work from too which is always a bonus. I don't think he was too impressed with the camera in his face for at least half an hour but he was a good boy for his Mum!

I always begin every pencil portrait by laying down the base tones which is the stage the portrait is currently at. Once all the under layers have been applied, I will then begin by layering finer detail to create the realism.
I plan on adding a background too but have yet to decide on this detail until the portrait is a little further forward.
​

Thinking of booking your own bespoke Commission?

Coloured pencil portraits are created on acid free, archival paper using lightfast quality pencils and if framed correctly, a pencil portrait can last a lifetime and beyond! (if protected & cared for correctly) Coloured pencil pet portraits start from just £150.00 and you can find more details on my COMMISSIONS page or fill in the form to request a no-obligation QUOTE.

Inside the studio of Coloured pencil Artist Karen M Berisford
I was recently approached by a pencil Magazine to write an Article on myself and my Coloured pencil Art for a forthcoming issue (more details will follow on the magazine). It is always a compliment knowing that someone likes my Art and wishes to find out more, especially when it is being published in a Magazine that goes out to a world wide audience too. I have spent the last few years creating bespoke Commissions and so decided to challenge myself by creating all new pieces of Art for the magazine, some that were specifically created to represent the 'story' that will be included alongside these pieces of Art - a story that I very rarely share publicly. 

As I only had 3 weeks to complete the drawings, I pulled a few unfinished works out the archives to complete and I also began a few brand new pieces too - these works all represent my true artistic interests from Birds which is where I first began, to Big Cats which allow me to really push my boundaries with details, a Human portrait which I just love creating and of course the Pet portraits which I have always loved to do as these animals have all brought so much joy

and happiness to their owners and deserve their memorial portraits, reminding us every day of those happy times spent together and the special bond we have.

There were a few pieces I was unable to complete for the deadline (Springer Spaniel above) as I did not want to rush them being so detailed however, all these pieces will be added to my website with their dedicated page as to how they were completed and for those available for sale, a chance to purchase the original or buy a print or 2.

Details will be added on my News page once the Magazine is out (June Issue) with a link to the website where you can purchase a Print copy or a digital copy to download. This magazine is a must for any Coloured pencil lover or for anyone simply wishing to read 'my story' as it's the one and only time I'll share it publicly.   

Costs are as follows:
Printed Copy       $5.99      £3.87*      €5.46*        Delivery (1 - 2 weeks)   USA $4.06      UK £2.96*
Digital Copy        $2.99      £1.93*      €2.72*

Step by Step Art & 1 Day Art Workshops by Karen M Berisford

6/3/2015

0 Comments

 
For anyone who does not know, I also have an official website dedicated to my Art Tutoring & 1 Day Workshops called 'Step by Step Art' - it has recently had a complete overhaul and as well as offering 1 Day Art Workshops in the UK, it has now been extended to offer online Art information and helpful articles to Artists Worldwide. Read on to find out more....
Coloursoft pencils for step by step art website header

Art Tutoring Website Update

I began my own Art Group in 2011 when I lived in Chesterfield and my website www.chesterfieldartsgroup.co.uk was created simply as an advertising tool for this Art Group - over the last few years, as my tutoring has adapted, the website also needed to keep up with these changes and the website was renamed www.stepbystepart.co.uk in keeping with the way that I tutor at my Workshops. I recreated my website to offer help and advice to Artists from all walks of life whether an Amateur or professional - why not take a look.....

Chesterfield 1 Day Art Workshops

There are now a couple of Chesterfield Workshops planned for 2015. There is a Coloured pencil Workshop on May the 9th where we will be completing a highly detailed portrait of a Shetland Sheepdog. Prices start from £42.00 and as always there are only a few spaces available so if you are looking to attend, please get in touch as soon as possible. Click the link to view Workshops available or BOOK HERE

Information available for other Artists

My Workshops website has now been adapted to offer a universal website for Artists all over the world who can access information on a variety of Art. I have always enjoyed sharing my own Artistic knowledge on a wide range of things from how to produce a pencil portrait to product recommendations that I have tried & tested myself.  I hope to bring on board other Artists knowledge too, offering further Articles not just based on mediums I work with myself which limits the market considerably but Articles from Artists working on other mediums that I could learn a lot from myself.


So if you have an interest in Art, why not visit my Step by Step Art website, there may be some tiny nugget of advice found within these pages that helps save the life of a drawing or painting! Please feel free to share this article with other Arty friends and if anyone has any interesting Articles that they wish to submit for the site, please get in touch, I would love to hear from you!   
Karen :)
