My pop up portraits events are different to my usual commission pieces as I get customers to choose a pre made printed background (that I have illustrated before the day) and then I draw them live action into the piece in 30 mins. It's a very hectic day and it's fun to work in such a fast paced way, it's a challenge to get them all done in the 30 min time slots but has to be done so I can keep on track for the day! I always meet so many interesting folk and I think it's really nice for customers to come along and see their portrait take shape in front of their eyes.

Couples, families and even 2 cute wee dogs (Gazza and Albus!) dropped by on the day and I just want to say a huge thank you to everyone who came along to the event it was such a pleasure to meet all of you and draw your lovely faces!

The Braw Wee Emporium was one of my earliest stockists and it was such a joy to set up there to do portraits for the day, Jennifer the owner been such a great support to my wee business since the early days and it's so great to continue to work together. If you have not checked out the Braw Wee Emporium it's a wonderful quirky gift shop with products all made in Scotland! They sell gifts, music and even hold workshops! 

I plan to host another 'Pop Up Portraits' event later on in the year but for the time being if you are looking for a custom drawn family portrait or couple portrait you can see some examples on my website and purchase direct from there too.
