The end! I am officially retired from drawing portraits. It is bittersweet, meaning I feel a huge relief but am sad to see them go. I figured it would come eventually. After 6 months of doing them, I need time to focus on some of my own things. It doesn't seem like a big commitment but the little free time I have when I am not working the day job or doing fun things, was spent working on them. Not doing them anymore opens up a huge opportunity for me to write, watch TV, dye my hair, paint my nails, etc. Perfectly aligning with summer! This is going to be the Summer of Rachele!

How funny! She said that she found out about me through you but I didn't realize you knew her. Glad I did her justice :) Maybe one day I will do a few here and there! I'll keep you in mind <3
Feel so lucky to be one of the subjects in your last group of drawings! Thank-you so so much. Here is to a fun filled summer of Rachele!!!
