Family Portraits 2009


Cindy Tonkin - August 3, 2009

While I started my art blog in 2007 it seems that these family portraits did not make the cut. So here they are.

I started by copying a family portrait where the faces were easy to copy, from a famous artist whose name I have lost.

Once i’d worked out how to represent faces. Then i went to my old family photos and copied the configurations and poses, enough that my mother can actually recognise some of the people (mostly because of the composition, i suspect).
