  • I offer a range of custom, hand-crafted artwork tailored to your preferences:

    • Pencil Portraits – Detailed, realistic portraits created from your photos. These can feature adults, children, pets, or more complex multi-subject compositions.

    • Soft Pastel Portraits (Colour) – Vibrant, lifelike portraits in colour, capturing the same subjects as above with added depth and softness.

  • To create an accurate and lifelike portrait of someone I haven’t met in person, I work primarily from one main reference photo. I’ll help you choose the best image to ensure a strong likeness.

    The quality of this main photo is very important — the clearer and higher resolution it is, the better the final portrait will be.

    As a single image can sometimes be limiting, it’s also helpful to provide a few additional photos. These give me a better overall understanding of the subject’s features, personality, and details. Even simple snapshots are perfectly fine for these extra references, and this applies to both people and animal portraits.

  • Yes, as I work from photos I can mail portraits out to just about anywhere!
