Sibling Portrait – Pencil Drawing Commission

This portrait was a wonderful commission to work on. The brief was to capture a warm, natural moment between a brother and sister — a pose full of personality, closeness, and that unmistakable sibling bond. I used my signature pencil‑drawing style, building up layers of cross‑hatching, texture, and tonal depth to bring out the gentle folds in their clothing, the softness of their hands, and the subtle interplay of shadows.

What I loved most about this piece was the energy between the two figures. The way they’re wrapped around each other creates a sense of comfort and connection that is timeless, making it a truly touching commission to bring to life.

If you’d like a custom sibling portrait — or any family drawing in this traditional pencil style — feel free to get in touch. Bespoke commissions like this are always welcome, and I’m happy to discuss sizes, layouts, and the style that fits your vision best.

Labradoodle Portrait
Labradoodle Portrait@Linda Harris
We lost our 13 year old labradoodle in September. She was the love of my husband’s life, so I ordered a bespoke portrait of her for his Christmas present. The whole process was extremely easy. I sent several photos to Robert and he chose one that he could work with. He kept me informed of the process and sent a photo of the finished portrait for approval. He had produced a beautiful picture in coloured pencils that exactly captured our doodles expression. I chose the option to have it framed and it was finished and sent to me in plenty of time for Christmas. Needless to say my husband cried when he opened his present and the portrait now has pride of place in our living room. Thank you Robert for giving us not only a wonderful present, but one that we will cherish forever.
Weimaraner Portrait

Our son presented us with a beautiful portrait of our Weimaraner completed by Bobby 2 years ago. We were so delighted with it that we commissioned Bobby to do a portrait of our now companion, Amber the Vizsla. Absolutely delighted with the portrait just received, thank you so much Bobby, you are extremely talented. I would recommend Bobby for any portraits you would like, perfect results everyone. Christine and John, Isle of Lewis
