It's all about the Portraits

One of the tasks I was set for the summer break was to create portraits that reflect certain words. It has been and is still an ongoing task but here's a little sneak peek of some more to come!

Three of the words provided were "Me" with the chance to make it something a little more interesting than just your average self portrait. I therefore broke myself down slightly and this "portrait reflects who I am in a few key icons.

Party like Gandalf

So my dad reached the big 5-0 a few weeks ago, and despite my demanding deadlines I knew I had to sort a card out, especially as he still hadn't forgiven me for never sending a card last year...despite having demanding deadlines again! 

Therefore as a nod to Lord of the Rings being one of my Dad's favourite things, and always teasing that he's just so old, Gandalf the party wizard came forth and became the star of his card!
