Familiar subjects, Lasting memories I've started a business specializing in personalized black and white pencil illustrations.

I celebrate your loved ones, pets, special events and anything with character by creating beautiful, hand drawn illustrations. It is in my biased belief that drawings make unique, thoughtful gifts for birthdays and the upcoming holidays. Send me a photo you'd like drawn, or a few photo's to create an original composite image. Check out the page, contact me for further details.
