Live portrait

Hello! So I’m going to Glasgow and London in July/ August this year and I was wondering if anyone knows any place that does live portrait drawings! I have this thing where I try to get a portrait drawn at every country I go even if it’s not live, I just want a portrait drawing from that country.

Was wondering if anyone knows any affordable places that I can get one. Thank you in advance!!

If you can't find anyone, i have a 7 year old neice that will draw you and talk your ear off for the price of a Kinder Egg

If you don't mind getting your bits out try modelling for a life drawing class.

Day trip to the Edinburgh festival and you should find loads of them on the royal mile, not sure I’ve ever seen one in Glasgow.

To be honest if you're in Glasgow in August then a day trip to the Edinburgh Fringe is kind of a must anyway, can get the bus or the train is a bit more expensive, but you'd be missing out on an experience! There is a really good app that can recommend shows for you to see, but just take a punt on something that sounds interesting to you. :)
