Love portrait contest!

Hi everyone!
I am Jullia :) and I'm a traditional art lover. As you can see on my profile (or on my blog www.jullia.eu ) I like to draw portraits very much.

I would like to start a little contest here, in this group.
Because the Valentine is getting closer, and so is the International Women’s Day, I thought that it would be nice to make a free commission portrait for the winner of this game. What do you have to do? Just add a portrait of your lover between 15 - 22 January.

On 23 - 24 January I'll make a poll were you can vote the most beautiful photo :) The winning photo will be transformed intro a nice drawing portrait.

So start posting and good luck!! ;)

Lovely pictures so far.
The picture doesn't necessarily have to include you as well. It’s preferable for it to include only him or her, your loved one. This is because the portrait will be A4 (21 by 29.7 cm or 11.7 by 16.5 inches) and that format would look nicer if it included just one person. However, it really depends on the photo you send.
Let's see what's next!!

Very interesting photo luminarphotography, and indeed they are deeply in love. But is it you and your bf/gf (sorry, I don't know what you are, boy or girl). You should post a photo with your lover, which if will win, I'll make it a drawing.. as a nice present for Valentine's Day. See the details up.

Great photo Sergio ;)
