Family Portrait Drawing
Family Portrait Drawing
I create my family portraits in a variety of styles, depending on my client’s needs. I have been drawing professional family portraits for many years, working with many families and children of all ages.
Unlike most family portrait artists, I believe in capturing a natural family connection in the art piece, and I aim to avoid anything staged or forced. Instead, I ask my clients to produce photographs that they love, and I use these images to produce my work and their natural family portrait.
Portraits of families make the perfect gift for any loved one or friend. Sadly, some families don’t have recent photos where they are all together. They ask me to reference the photos they have and recreate their memories so that they can finally have a beautiful portrait to call their own.

Testimonial
"Beyond impressed with my A2 and A4 commission pieces from Shayne. It was only two weeks between me messaging Shayne, telling him what I was after and the pieces being ready to collect. He kept me updated through-out with photos of his progress and telling me what he was going to do next. The pieces themselves are phenomenal, I've never seen drawings look so realistic. He even packaged them in a beautiful presentation, ready to be gifted. They really are wonderful. Shayne is fantastic at what he does and I could recommend him enough. Thank you, Shayne xx"

My Love for Family Portrait
This type of portraiture is quickly becoming one of my favourite to do. They can take a very long time to complete, but when they are, they always look absolutely amazing. I love the different ages, the different textures of skin, old and new, different hair colour etc, it all helps to create a dramatic piece of artwork. When you stand back and see all of your beloved family members in one place, it can be quite emotional. As you can imagine, some family members have sometimes passed so I always feel completely honored when asked to help create a family portrait.
