The Graphite Pencil Portrait - Classical, yet Modern
The Graphite Pencil Portrait goes beyond timeless; from before the colored photograph,
the black and white pictures were and are still popular. Now you can have your favorite photograph hand drawn as a pencil portrait.
The pencil portrait is shaded to capture features, expressions, personalities and light.
I am a pencil artist who lives in Littleton Colorado. I specialize in pencil portraits of people and pets,
drawn by hand using graphite pencils and charcoal. I draw pencil portraits from reference photographs of the people and pets you love.
A pencil portrait is more than a sketch but a piece of art that you will proudly hang on your wall.
Pencil portraits are the perfect wedding, shower, graduation, anniversary, Christmas and birthday gifts.
Pencil portraits are more than a gift for one occasion because they become heirlooms that last throughout the years. They make
wonderful personalized gifts to friends or loved ones.
Why not present someone you love with a timeless graphite pencil portrait as a unique gift for your next gift giving occasion.
Or start a family tradition of pencil portraits to preserve your ancestry through the generations.
My hope is that I will have the opportunity to bless you with a graphite pencil portrait of someone you love.
God Bless,
Linda Bissett
What's Up Lately
My current pencil portrait commission is a memorial of beloved parents who recently passed. I was hired by thier son to
create this portrait from an old photograph from the 70's.
My hope is that this pencil portrait will be a blessing to the family.
And that the family will enjoy this portrait of their parents as more than just a
pencil sketch but as a family heirloom for generations to come.
