Children Oil Portraits

There’s something so beautiful about the innocence of children, isn’t there? They are able to see a morning that has never been brighter and a world that is full of great surprises. It shows in their faces, from very young to fully in bloom as a teenager. They are ready to seize the day!

How many times have you thought to capture that essence in an image that you can keep as your son or daughter matures? Among the thousands of photos that will be taken of your child throughout his life, there will one memory that will be passed down from generation to generation. That’s what happens with oil portraits of children.

What is the best age to capture that innocence in a child portrait? Jessica Rockwell always recommends as early as possible—at least starting at 2 years old. However, when parents can’t wait and have children’s oil portraits or charcoal portraits created before that, these are priceless too, of course. If your child is already 6 0r 8 or 10 or 12 or 14 or 16 years old, don’t wait, capture that youthful beauty in a children’s oil portrait. How can you go wrong with an exquisite commissioned portrait of your child?
