FAQs

CAN I COMBINE PHOTOS INTO ONE DRAWING?

ABSOLUTELY. 50-75% OF MY DRAWINGS ARE MADE FROM SEVERAL PHOTOS STITCHED TOGETHER.

HOW LONG SHOULD I EXPECT TO WAIT FOR MY PORTRAIT

I TYPICALLY TAKE ORDERS THREE MONTHS IN ADVANCE SO I HAVE ENOUGH TIME TO PUT THE EXTRA DETAILS ON THE DRAWING. THE WAIT TIME FOR A HAND-DRAWN PORTRAIT IS AFFECTED BY A FEW THINGS; THE MAIN BEING THAT I AM A ONE-WOMAN SHOW.

HOW LONG DOES THE DRAWING TAKE TO MAKE?

I SPEND ABOUT FIVE HOURS ON EACH FACE, SO FOR A FIVE-PERSON PORTRAIT, I EXPECT TO SPEND 25 HOURS ON THE FACES AND ABOUT 10-15 HOURS ON THE REST OF THE PORTRAIT.

WHAT MATERIAL IS THE PIECE MADE FROM?

I USE A BRISTOL SMOOTH PAPER WITH A RANGE OF GRAPHITE PENCILS TO MAKE YOUR FINAL PIECE.
