Commission: Birthday Portrait

"We received today your beautiful illustration for Zachary.  He was absolutely delighted.  It's even more beautiful in person.  The colours are so vivid." Tuan

Commission: Three girls...

A fun set of birth announcements now complete, for three girls with family ties to Kenya. 

"Thanks Harriet...I was delighted to see the end result: thank you so very much.  We will now frame it and hang it above the other two:  you have no idea how much it means to us and particularly to me, 3rd child of 3 who rarely got what my brothers had received.  So, the drawing closes a big equity gap, yey! Thanks again." Emanuel
