Description This was a commision.. and it gives me a special feeling.. The man in the drawing is a brother of my mother's best friend.. and he passed away.. it's a sad story, cause he just found the love of his life..
anyway my mother's friend and the woman in the picture asked me if I wanted to draw this picture of them.. so I did. And I thought I shows real love.. and that's why the title is real love.. I had a hard time drawing this one.. It was the most difficult drawing I ever did.. I don't know why.. maybe it's because of my new drawing paper, or because of the fact he's dead.. and the reference picture wasn't clear, so I couldn't see sharp lines..
but I'm satisfied with the result.. and I hope they like it..

+ A3-size paper
+ HB and 2B mechanical pencil
+ Blending sticks
+ a tissue
+ 23 hours
+ and my hand

This is love. Real and pure.
Love doesn't always involve youth and perfection like most art on this site leads us to believe.

haaaaaaaaai Nienke,

Ben ik weer eens een keer. Effe mijn tekenvriendin opzoeken. lol
Hopelijk gaat alles goed met je en je familie.
Wow, je hebt weer eens iets heel moois en soul-touching gemaakt. Ik weet zeker dat je een paar mensen ontzettend gelukkig hebt gemaakt. Je geeft aan dat de foto die je ervoor hebt gebruikt niet echt scherp was. Nou, dan heb je de tekening wel zoiets wonderbaarlijks meegegeven in mijn ogen want als ik kijk naar de 2 gezichten dan valt mij op dat als ik moest kiezen wie het duidelijkst doorkomt ik voor de vrouw kies. Ik kan niet precies aangeven door wat dat komt maar voor mijn gevoel is dat zo. Ze zijn bij elkaar vanuit 2 werelden. Het mooie vind ik nu dat de liefde die ze voor elkaar voelden er nog steeds is. De tekening verteld, ook als ik hier niet meer bij je ben ik zal steeds mijn armen om je heen leggen.
Dus lieve Nienke ik vind dat je de tekening nog meer liefde en warmte mee hebt gegeven dan je mischien wel dacht.

Heel veel groetjes,

Frank

Hai Frank

Met ons gaat alles goed hoor ik hoop bij jullie ook..
ik wil je heel erg bedanken voor je lieve comment en complimentjes.. ik denk ook wel dat ik ze gelukkig heb gemaakt... ik heb de tekening laatst gegeven aan de zus van die man op de tekening, omdat die de opdracht gegeven had. en nu wilde de vrouw die de tekening kreeg, die er ook zelf op staat mij heel graag ontmoeten omdat ze het zo mooi vond. dus nu komt ze morgen (vrijdag) daarvoor. en het heeft ze allemaal heel erg ontroerd, want de familie van fred, die man moest allemaal huilen, en die vrouw natuurlijk ook.. dus ze vonden het heel mooi.. ze zeiden ook allemaal dat is helemaal fred... want hij had zijn mond altijd zo als ie lachte en als hij lachte had ie ook spleetogen.. dus ze vonden het allemaal heel mooi gelukkig ik denk ook dat dat is wat je ziet dat zijn ogen heel donker en dicht zijn.. maar dat was echt gewoon zo..
Jah wat jij zegt is wel waar inderdaad.. over dat als hij er niet meer is toch nog steeds zijn armen om haar heen legt.. daar had ik zelf nog niet over nagedacht eerlijk gezegd.. maar het is wel zo

Nou nogmaals bedankt voor je berichtje, en tot snel



Nienke!!
