This portrait really doesn't need bold colors.

Our earliest couple photo made a lovely anniversary canvas. 🤍

Exactly the understated portrait I'd wanted for our wall.

Black and white was absolutely right for this particular photo.

His characteristic smile comes through beautifully in the pencil version.

Near the bookcase, the sketch creates a cozy little corner.

Familiar photograph, completely different impression.

For a retiring colleague, we chose our team photograph.

Up close, I keep noticing little areas of shading.

Pencil styling gives our casual snapshot a lovely timeless quality.

A canvas that still works whenever we change the decor.

Mom appreciates how quietly the portrait fits into her room.

Without bright colors, the moment between us really stands out.

At first glance, I noticed how peaceful the drawing felt.

Most impressed by how expressive the eyes look in pencil.

Above the sideboard, our favorite portrait now hangs in monochrome.

The simple sketch sits beautifully beside older family photographs.

Our faces look wonderfully familiar in the pencil-sketch canvas.

Fine lines give that busy photograph a much calmer feeling.

Grandpa initially thought we'd commissioned a traditional portrait artist.
