Why would you get a painted or hand drawn portrait when it's so much easier and faster to take a photograph of your loved ones?
There's something eternal captured in a portrait painting. It takes time to study the face, to draft in the features, to bring those unique features out of the once blank canvas. It takes time to go through life with our loved ones. The painted portrait exemplifies this. It tells everyone this is a story of worth. The person painted is valued with each brushstroke. The layers of pencil marks built up on the paper, just like the memories we treasure with each other through life.
And when the portrait is framed and hung upon the wall to be admired and to remember, we declare the love and time we invest in our loved ones.
Transform your photos into an original painting, or a drawing.
Treasure those special moments with a timeless work of art...
Pencil Portraits
Step 1:
The Vision Email me to discuss your custom order. We'll chat back and forth to align your creative vision into a work of art. We'll discuss sizes, prices, materials, and any other queries you may have. I'll quote you a price and give you a time estimate for when the work will be completed. Email me any photos you have that you want me to work with. I do offer matting and framing services at an additional price.
Step 2:
The Creation Once payment has been made, I start with sketching up your vision. I email you the sketches; any changes or alterations you want made will be adjusted at this point. I like to send you my progress. It's my favorite part: transforming that blank canvas into a work of art. I hope you get as excited about it as I do! As I develop the painting/drawing, I'll email you the works in progress, and you can enjoy the development of your vision.
Step 3:
The Reveal I email you photos of your completed artwork. Minor adjustments can still be made at this point, if needed. Please bear in mind that if it's an oil painting, it will take several weeks to dry completely before I can mail it to you. Your art work is now securely packaged and mailed with tracked and insured shipping.
