While you may simply want McKenzie Birnie to create a portrait by copying one photograph, you may also want her to use her creative and artistic talent and create a portrait from several photos. Here are two examples of McKenzie's work.

The first is a portrait that McKenzie did from photos of Ariki founder, John Corney, and company mascot Kiwi. the portrait captures the two subjects enjoying Sunday morning coffee and paper on the patio.

The second is another example of a family portrait from photos that McKenzie was commissioned to do. The person requesting the commission wanted his grandmother painted as he remembered her sitting on her back porch at the family ranch in Mexico, but no one photo existed of her in this location. However, from three different photos that were supplied, McKenzie painted a creative portrait of the grandmother on her porch.
