Requesting a portrait drawing
To hand draw a portrait from a photo, clients will first need to send me a photo of their pet or person they’d like drawn. I accept photos taken with a decent camera or phone and upload from my contact page and I can advise if suitable
Once I receive your photos, it generally takes me about a week to finish your portrait—but keep in mind that I’m often booked up in advance.
So please ask if you require a certain date.
Choosing your photo
It’s easier to draw a portrait from a photo rather than just an idea, but getting one that makes you look good isn’t as easy as it seems. Before you order your artist portrait, take several photos from various angles . Make sure that there aren’t any distracting background objects in view.
your photo needs to be clear and sharp and close enough to see all facial detail as I can`t copy properly what i can`t see clearly.
don`t over crop - leave some space around the head .
I always need to view photos to make sure they are suitable for me to work from and do justice to the subject.
Photo quality is very important, so please consider using a digital camera or a phone with a good camera instead of just your phone. . It’s also better to take several shots of each pose in case one doesn’t turn out good!
Also, don’t crop your photo - leave it as it was taken with space around the head with nothing cut off .
Ordering your pencil portrait
The Checkout process is very simple. Send me a photo of your subject(s), tell me how you want them painted, and let me know if you have any special requests.
Once I receive your order, i can get more detailed information from you if needed about your portrait order.
After I've talked with you and finalized all details I get your deposit and then I'll start drawing! Most custom pencil portrait orders take about a week to finish before they are ready for shipping to clients.
