#portrait snapshot

[sea-owl]

I just had an idea. So we know Felicity is supposed to be a talented little artist right? What if she just paints all her family members around the house. Like little snapshots. It's not odd to see Felicity in a random corner of the house painting whatever or whoever is in the room.

She has a portrait of Portia at teatime, and one of Penelope at her writing desk. There's one of Prudence doing needlework, and one of Philippa brushing her hair out for bed. Of course, she has one of her bestie Hyacinth surrounded by her named flower.

She currently has an ongoing series that she dubs The Love Language of Food. She has a completed portrait of her sister Philippa and her husband, Albion Finch, lovingly sharing a plate of cheese. It was sickenly gross. She also has a portrait of that funny time where Prudence was hand feeding her new husband, Harry Dankworth, some grapes. He looked so silly, with that silly smile on his face.

Penelope technically has a portrait Felicity painted for this collection, but also technically it isn't. The person she's with isn't her partner, and Felicity supposed if everything worked out she soon could add an official portrait to this collection should Penelope marry Lord Debling.

Felicity made a face at the thought, her nose scrunched up and her lips pouted. She rather her sister didn't marry Lord Debling. Sure, the man had a love for vegetables, or rather an abhorrence for any meat, but he didn't really fit with the theme of this series. At least in Felicity's opinion.

Felicity looked over at the portrait she's unofficially dubbed as Penelope's. The portrait itself was from a tea time that got a little wild. Felicity and Hyacinth had ganged up on Hyacinth's brother Gregory, pelting him with the scones. He had tried to get them back with some jam but as always Gregory's aim was terrible and ended up hitting one of his older sisters. As there was no proper adult supervision a full on food fight broke out between the Bridgerton siblings and the two Featherington sister.

At one point during the food fight Felicity happened to look over at her sister, who was covered in food, next to her laughing was Colin Bridgerton, who was also covered in food. They were both laughing, and at one point Penelope pulled some sort of frosting out of her hair to lob it against Colin. The image stuck with Felicity and she added it to her snapshot collection.

Maybe Felicity could officially accept this portrait for Penelope's? After all isn't friendship another type of love? Felicity liked to think so. At the very least they looked fond of one another, as they always did in her portraits.

At the very least, if Felicity kept this portrait in, she wouldn't have to add Lord Debling. There's no way he beats Colin's love of food.

I’ve got one more character portrait I wanted to get out of my system before I need to work on other projects, so here’s Derek for ya! I honestly wasn’t sure how Sourwolf was going to turn out, but he actually exceeded my expectations. He was thankfully easier to draw than I thought he would be (the grumpy characters I do draw are hard AF to get right), so he was a breath of fresh air. I could definitely get used to drawing him more (and maybe doing some really cool things with his eyes). Also, swooning over that facial hair and the shadows, and this general colour palette was really great to work with. You can view Derek as part of the work Snapshots of Time on AO3. Thinking about maybe working on Scott or Lydia next, but we’ll see!

Some selfies I liked.

Hi, I'm Sanne, and I look MUCH shorter in these than I am. 😆
