Illustration: Kelly Smith
This lovely lady is by far one of my all time favorite illustrators.
Her drawings are filled with such beauty, so tenderly soft and inexplicably light. It's impossible not to fall in love with her work.
So you can imagine my complete and utter happiness when she asked me if I would be willing to let her draw me!
If you are not yet acquainted with her incredible work, you definitely need to check out her amazing blog Birdy & Me.
For those who do know her exquisite work, you need to get some Kelly Smith hanging on your wall immediately!
I know I have mine and look forward to owning many more!
And for those of you who are fortunate enough to live in Australia, and more precisely in Melbourne, well my dears, you have absolutely no excuse to miss out on this brilliant artist's upcoming show, A Tale Of Two Kellys, opening on the 27th of May.
Though I love Paris, I truly wish I lived in Australia right know.
So be there or be square!

Ohhhh i'm SO glad that you like it lady.
It was so hard to choose how to draw you. You might even pop up again! You're such a lovely subject, I mean that in the most genuine way.
I'll happily send you the original but I got a grubby mark on it. I'll definitely send you a print Xx

what a great portrait!!
Haha awww!
I'm sorry about the copyright over the image too, with you wanting to post it on your own blogs.
I put little copyright credits over all of my etsy images yesterday and thought it was something I should probably keep doing. Even though it can take away a bit from the work!
Rest assured it WONT be on the prints :) Xx
just found your blog. great stuff, i'll be back!
