I drew this picture because I've been a big fan of Rebecca and her music and ministry.
I've tried several drawings of her in the past but they were all rather unsuccessful.
This picture, found in her 40 Days with God devotional book, looked
so cute. It soon became a challenge because it was my first portrait
with 2 people (Becca with her little sister, Libby). I completed the task with a large range of pencil weights & an ebony pencil to
get the blackest areas. In this photo, Rebecca's about 18 or 19 and her sister's about 2.
At Creation East 2000 in Mount Union, PA, I got a chance to very briefly meet Rebecca on her
tour bus to give her not a copy, but the actual drawing of this. Although she seemed pleased,
I am still a little uncertain exactly how she "received" the drawing. I imagine she gets a lot
of portraits, but I hope she's giving it a good home!
