While I enjoy creating these pieces for friends and family, I do sell portraits to anyone interested. All I need from you is a picture that you want recreated (see picture recommendations below).

Picture Recommendations

When considering a picture to have recreated into a stunning & unique charcoal portrait, please consider the following suggestions to ensure the best results. If you have a very special photograph that does not meet all of these criteria, please know that I can still make a beautiful piece for you.

*Clear photographs (no blurs, red eye, or monotone colors)
*High resolution (especially if emailing the photograph, the higher the resolution, the better the detail that can be achieved)
*Good contrast (no monotone colors, no bleached out/over fill-flashed faces)
*Minimal shadows (contrast is good but half a face obscured in shade does not translate well)
*Choose a photograph that is close-up to the subject (distance shots reduce the amount of detail available)
*Choose a photograph that ideally represents your subject (reflects their energy, spirit, emotions, etc)
*Choose a photograph that you want to have enlarged and vividly on display
