Should you wish to have your own favorite photo of family or friends hand drawn as a beautiful gift for you or someone one special I would be honored to be your Artist.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
How does this work ?
E-mail me a photo of your choosing, from which I will create a custom portrait in graphite ! The drawing will be done on 8 x 10 ,, 11 X 14 ,, or 16 X 20 Bristol Vellum paper, which is very good quality, and will be fixed so it will not smudge to a light touch.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The quality of the photo you choose greatly determines the quality of the portrait.
I can not take a poor photo and make a great drawing.
Can I work from a poor photograph? Yes. But keep in mind I can not draw what I can not see and the quality will reflect.
Preferably a large photo of high resolution .
Please keep this in mind ( I can't stress this enough ! )
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Photos sent by postal mail will be returned with completed artwork.
If your reference photo is precious to you I suggest you have a copy made and send that to me instead..
I do not insure what the mail may do to it once it leaves your home.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Waiting time is typically 2-3 weeks , but varies according to how many are ahead of you. If you would like a special portrait for Christmas or special occasion I recommended you contact me as early as a 2-3 months time frame to insure it arrives on time.
It is important to me that you are satisfied.
Once your portrait is finished, I will email a digital image and will only ship to you after I receive your approval and payment.
Keep in mind that each computer monitor is different and the resolution could vary but I will work as hard as I can to get it as close to the original as I can for you to approve.
