From photograph to pencil portrait – my drawings are easy to commission
The better the photograph the better the portrait …
For the best portrait I need a clear, crisp, photograph from which to copy. The more detail I can see within the photograph, the more detail I can include within your pencil portrait.
Your photograph needs to capture the character of the subject so that I can do the same.
Portrait size is completely flexible: I normally find that A4-size is popular for a single subject, and A3 or A2 if there is more than one subject. Separate photographs can be used to combine more than one subject into a single portrait.
Most people are keen to choose their own frame and mount so I do not include these.
