Portraiture.



One of my this Summer's tasks was to get the boys to draw portraits of each other. I'm hoping this will now become an annual event.

Above is Harvey J's drawing of Ollie.


And this is Ollie's drawing of Harvey J.

I think they need to hone their drawing skills a bit, but the seeds of genius have been sown!

      I think Ollie's drawing is the more accurate, even though Harvey J doesn't exactly look like that (thank goodness).

    The first one looks just like you! Family resemblance. Love the waggly ear on the second and that holiday tan

      I'm not sure why they both used that Trump Tan look for the skin.

    Unfortunately the second one could be Tony Blair.

    Both boys show a good sense of humour.

      They were certainly both laughing a lot when they did them!

      I'm going to get them to do one each year, to compare later.

    Those seeds just need gentle watering now and they will take after their grandpa.

    I thought the Trump tan was an Ozzie suntan.

    Is Harvey J as happy as he has been portrayed ? What a lovely way to be seen. It will be great for them to do them on a yearly basis so that you can compare them all in years to come. XXXX

      That's what I thought, and framed and hung in their bedroom.

    There is some good there. Treasure them while they visit, before they find their own lives.

      They'll be horrible 'TEENAGERS' before too long, then they'll be banned.

      He even wrote Donald Trump on the bottom; I think he thought the same as you.

    Dear Cro, a propos of nothing please inform Lady M that I cooked an estofat de boeuf last weekend for (French) guests and it was a complete success!
