Posted @withregram • @farrow.karen.petportraits Thought I’d join in with #marchmeetthemaker I’m always late to the party very much like the March hare so thought I’d be organised with it being the 2nd! Here goes....I live in Rainow, Macclesfield just on the edge if the Peak District and have been living here for the best part of 12 or so years. My art life began as soon as I could pick up a pencil I guess. On leaving school I went into art college and then onto a career in graphic design and illustration. Think I’m going back 35 years. Seems a lifetime ago! My graphics career lasted ten years before I got the travel bug and went back packing round the world. I came back met my then husband and had two children whom I adore. I went on to become a single parent and my life took me down a very different path. Pub landlady to be precise. I started my little business in 2016 and haven’t looked back since. I cannot tell you how lucky I feel and privileged to be captain of my dinghy. My other passion in life ya my dogs. I have three badly behaved French bulldogs. If anyone knows me they’ll also know I have a weakness for dark chocolate and good coffee. . . . . . #marchmeetthemaker #karentorrspetportraits #feelinghumble #mydrawing #petportrait #petportraitartist #peakdistrict #everyonesdoingit #macclesfield #ukcps #drawing #draw #pencil #pencilsociety #colouredpencils https://www.instagram.com/p/B9PAkL4hUlC/?igshid=1m615wxrcfty3
