'Jack's Portrait'

Whilst we were on holiday in Great Yarmouth, we were walking by the sea front, when we saw some 'artists' doing 'drawings' of people...

I stopped and looked and they were wonderful...  I waited until they had finished their portraits they were drawing and asked whether or not they could do a 'drawing' from a photograph for us!

I spoke with artist, 'Philip Harvey' and he explained that it depends on the size of the photo!  I took out the little 6 x 4 we had taken with us in it's little silver frame, but he wasn't quite sure what he thought he could do, as he usually draws peoples faces which are obviously a lot larger than a photo!

I explained about Our Precious Angel and left the photograph with him, and to return in a few hours...  He kept saying it may be ok, it may not, he honestly didn't know!

So, we took the children to the pier again, then at exactly 4.00pm we went back!

It was finished, and he showed us to see what we thought!

I think my reaction was enough to show to him that what he had done for us was something that we could never really quite explain...  The tears just fell...

'IT WAS BEAUTIFUL'

We had actually taken our favourite photo with us too, which makes it even more special and we would love to share this with you all...

Philip, 'Thank You' so very much for what you have done for us...  This portrait is absolutely beautiful...  You will be remembered in our hearts always...

Philip also drew the portrait of Ben and artist 'Andy Saunders' drew the portraits of Sophie and angel Samuel...  I will include these here along with Jack's...
