Looking for a freelance artist who can do a portrait commission from your favorite photograph? I have a special love of graphite artwork and have been doing pencil portrait drawings for years. Maybe you are looking to capture the charm of that sweet grandchild who warms your heart and you want full detail, or maybe you are looking for the perfect personalized gift for that special someone, but you are on a budget. Pencil artwork may still be just the thing. With my Name Your Price options, i hope to make fine art drawings available to anyone.
The likeness of the subject will be present at any price point, and the higher price that you choose, the longer i will spend adding detail. See the examples for an idea of the difference in detail. See tips below for help in choosing a photo and price.

*Hand drawn on heavy artists' quality paper
*Ships in a protective bag and mounted to hardboard
*Ready to ship within 3 weeks (if there is no waiting list)
Tips for photo selection:
*Any favorite photo of yours will do, as long as the subject is clearly visible, but ideally it should be a non-professional photo, taken in a natural setting in everyday life.
*It should be taken in good light, but not be overexposed. (dark areas should also be visible.)
*The non-toothy smiles tend to have a more natural charm.
Tips for price selection:
There are several features which are somewhat time consuming to draw. Avoiding the following things will allow you to get the most detail for your dollar:
*more than one subject
*teeth visible
*glasses
*curly hair
