pencil drawing from Art From Scratch by Rachel

JAMES DEAN (click to enlarge)
Charcoal 16" x 20"

From childhood, I had been told I had a talent for drawing. As I grew older I started creating family portraits, drawn from a favorite photo, with clothing, hair, etc. changed to create that perfect portrait.

 

I have combined separate individual photos, for clients, to produce a group portrait for those who are far too busy in their normal life, to make time for a sitting, yet desire a personally created pencil or charcoal drawing.

 

Black and white photographs, which could be of your family from a few generations back, are normally a wonderful avenue to make that perfect charcoal or pencil drawing to display, yet color photographs may also be used.

 

I truly enjoy the challenge of taking any type media image, from old photos to computer images, and creating that very personal drawing for you to treasure.

 

You will find, in the gallery, a very small sampling of work done both recent and from years back. The creative, original work displayed uses a wide variety of media, as I love to experiment using different pastels, pencils, brushes and surfaces.

 

Please feel free to explore this site, and return on occasion, as the gallery will be updated often.
