Warm, Artistic & Uniquely Beautiful
For a portrait with a distinctive artistic character, I combine graphite and white pastel pencils on quality tan artist paper.
 
The warm tone of the paper becomes part of the artwork itself. The graphite creates depth and definition, while the white pastel pencils bring light to the portrait and help create beautiful highlights and dimension.
 
This combination produces a softer, warmer appearance than a traditional black-and-white graphite portrait and gives the finished artwork a unique, classic feel.
 
An Artistic Alternative to Traditional Portraits
Each portrait is drawn completely by hand. I do not use AI, computer-generated imagery, or digital filters.
 
I carefully work from your photographs to capture the expression, features, and personality of your child.
 
You may send several photographs, and I can use the best details from each to create one beautiful finished portrait.
 
Several sizes are available so you can select the size that best suits your home and the way you want to display your artwork.
 
If you're looking for something different from a traditional color or black-and-white portrait, this distinctive combination of graphite, white pastel, and tan paper offers a beautiful alternative.
 
A timeless portrait with warmth, depth, and artistic character.
