Selena & Trish (Nationwide Gas Care, Kinghorn Fife)

Here's a double portrait of these two everyday heroes from yesterday morning. Selena and Trish from Nationwide Gas Care in Kinghorn have generously allowed me to sit in on their work day to observe and draw them in action. I love drawing people in their environments, be that home, work or play. Double portraits are especially interesting because the energy between people is a rich source of extra knowledge to draw on. It's impossible to come to a drawing with no knowledge. You bring all of your experience & emotion to the page so a blank page is, in a sense, never a blank page. Thought for the day! I'd call this drawing a success & I'm back with them next Friday. Stay tuned.
