I painted this portrait a couple of years ago as a leaving gift for someone I'd really enjoyed working with. I had previously given paintings away to other lovely colleagues as leaving gifts, two of them surprise custom portraits in the style of Holbein. I asked Harry in advance so I didn't have to work from existing photos. This was quite a large painting for me, it looked great framed. Unfortunately I don't have good photos of it before I handed it over, but Harry loved it, and that's all that matters!!
About the Artist
Sue Summerill
I am a mainly self taught artist based in Bristol, UK. I work in oils, acrylics and watercolour, and I also love printmaking! I work in very thin layers and work full-time, so it often takes me months to complete a painting!!
