Portrait Painting
Painting or Drawing
A portrait of yourself, someone you love, or even your TTRPG character: anything is possible!
I offer two types of portrait: a classical portrait and a fantasy portrait.
For a classic portrait, I’ll paint or draw from a photograph. Unless otherwise agreed, I’ll simplify the background to draw the focus onto the face. A fantasy portrait involves any kind of addition or alteration. Think of it as an edited photograph – ranging from a small addition, such as elf ears, to a completely different character.
I offer four different media. Two of these are drawing: shadows on white paper or shadows and highlights drawn on brown paper; and two are for painting: oil paint or acrylic paint.
You’ll see that there aren’t many finished pieces yet. I’m still working on them. So new works will be added soon, so that there are examples of each medium.
