Custom Friends Portrait - Modernist style

  • Contains max2 figures
  • Charcoal on Paper
  • 120x100cm
  • with black frame plexi glass

This artwork is custom made for two friends: 

Claudia and Veerle are the kind of friends that have been together since they were in 1st grade. Their friendship has stood the test of time, and they understand each other without even having to say a word. When Claudia gave Veerle a tulip, it was more than just a flower. It represented all of the good times that they have shared together over the years.

The tulips that are currently sitting in the vase on the right side of the table represent all of the amazing things that are yet to come in their friendship. Claudia and Veerle have so many more memories to make together, and they will undoubtedly be just as wonderful as the ones they have already shared.

Finally, the book that is sitting on the table between them represents all of the common topics that they talk about. Claudia and Veerle have so much in common, and they are always eager to share their thoughts and experiences with each other. Their friendship is truly one of a kind, and it is a beautiful thing to see two people who have been together for so long and still have so much love and respect for one another.

Want to have an exclusive artwork in your home, that represents you and your bestie? I love to draw people in their best moments... Love to know more about who is who and what they love to do! Tell me everything about your special friendship.

Modernist style is my style,

I start with a good composition and story. Construction and composition takes a huge part of the proces. Then I will look at some of the photo's you gave me. The figures are a mix of the modernist style and a glimpse of your features. It is a simplified design of you. 

What I need from you

  • characters/names
  • photo's
  • time : 3 weeks in advance
  • a free mind = the artist creates the image, you let go of the outcome
  • let me know what you love about my work and why, I will think of your words while working

 Think of this as a gift for your friend, and special birthdays!
