All portraits are drawn from personal photographs. Portraits are created with an assortment of techniques using graphite (pencil). Make sure that submitted photographs show good detail in facial areas and are not out of focus.

    Be aware that images taken by professional photographers are copyrighted. In certain circumstances, I may request that a release be sent to me by mail which has been signed and dated by the photographer on his or her letterhead.
