A State of Art Portraits

My portfolio consists of highly realistic interpretations of the model. Although I focus on realism, my goal is not to imitate the reference material used but to obtain a truthful and accurate depiction of the subject. A strong likeness happens naturally during the drawing process. My portfolio mainly consists of custom commission graphite & charcoal and watercolor portraits drawn from my client's family photos of a favorite pet, baby, child or wedding portrait.

Birthday Portrait Commission Completed

Ok, drum roll please, the portrait is complete! I made a few more tweaks to both of their mouths and darkened the son's skin. I also softened his mouth a little and furrowed his brow a bit more.
