This year - 2015 - one of my morris dancing friends held a fund-raising barbecue-fete, trying to raise funds for the MacMillan nurses who had cared for him - and his wife so well in the past. There were all sorts of things going on, but I was roped in to be the "artist in residence"! 'Victims' sat in front of me to have their faces drawn! It went OK. Some of my efforts I felt were sort-of-ok, one or two I was not happy with, personally, but the recipients seemed to be happy enough! Hay-ho! I only had about 10 to 15 minutes for each one! It was good practice for me!
There was one, though, that asked me if I could do one of his daughter ..... who wasn't there! He showed me a snap-shot of her on his mobile! Having snapped this from his mobile, with mine, we came up with quite a decent image. I had all the detail I needed. Of course, at home I had all the time in world to do the job! Thought I'd do it in colour! Took me just over three hours! I thoughly enjoyed myself!
