Graphite on Bristol 8 x 10 inches |
No, not the drawing, but the two little boys - my boys - depicted in it. It was done as a Christmas gift to my lovely Wife (their Mum) and it got the exact tearful reaction I was hoping for, which is often the best confirmation of a good likeness. :)
I rarely draw portraits, in fact this is my first one in over eight years, but it was such a satisfying piece to work on that I've decided to start accepting portrait commissions!
So if you, or someone you know, might be interested in an original, one of a kind piece of art featuring a loved one, themselves, or even a pet, meticulously rendered in graphite - I'm your man!
A few extra details;
- I work from photos, so no need for lengthy sittings in person
- I'm able to combine elements from different photos (for example, five images were used for the drawing above)
- Can work to a size of your choice (if you have the perfect frame in mind this is often a good starting point for a quote)
- Include as many people/animals as you like
- Can ship internationally
"How much will it cost?" you may ask. Well, it's always difficult to provide a universal answer to this question as there are so many variables with each commission, so the best thing to do is send a message to Shane@ShaneMadeArt.com listing all of your requirements and we'll take it from there with a free, no obligation, quote. If you're not a fan of good old email then you can always get hold of me on Facebook at www.facebook.com/shanemadeart.
When you consider the cost of a professional photography shoot and prints, I like to think that my portraits are very good value when you take into account the time and care that goes into each one.
Get in there quick before the waiting list gets too long! And even if you're not interested at the moment, a share would be very much appreciated.
Thanks,
Shane

P.S. The drawing looks better in real life (my scanner isn't exactly state of the art), but you'll just have to take my word for it!
