Beautiful hand drawn pencil portraits created from your photos
I always strive to capture the likeness and mood in my pencil portrait drawings of dogs, cats, horses and people. Unlike a photograph which can have unwanted and distracting elements, a pencil portrait can eliminate these and focus on bringing out the personality and important features in the subject. Bad lighting, a drooped ear, red-eye, and overpowering backgrounds can all be removed and adjusted to suit your preference. The character of the pet or person can then be brought to life in a framable, highly realistic, pencil portrait using the highest quality professional artist materials.
Graphite pencil is a wonderful medium for creating a classic black and white portrait. It can enhance the individuality and personality of the subject. A pencil portrait is well suited for your dog, cat or other animals, and of someone special in your life. I can work from a few photos and create a life-like pencil portrait which you can treasure forever.
