Because pencil and charcoal work can smudge, I treat every finished piece with a protective fixative spray and roll it inside a secure PVC tube, ensuring your portrait reaches you in perfect condition. Whether you want a realistic portrait of a loved one or a detailed sketch of a spiritual figure, I give it my full focus. I work primarily with graphite and charcoal because they bring a classic, timeless feel to your photos. When you share a reference photo, I spend hours on the shading to get every detail right. I know how much these memories matter to you. I am based in Banswara, but I ship these sketches across India. I take your order safety seriously. Each sketch gets a fixative coat so the graphite stays sharp, and then it is packed in a crush-proof PVC pipe. You will receive it ready to be framed. If you have any specific ideas or want to combine faces from different photos, just tell me. I always chat directly with my clients to make sure I am creating exactly what you imagined. ## About Sidd I am Sidd, and I create art from my small studio in Banswara with big dreams behind every stroke. When you send me a photo, I pour my focus into capturing the exact details, whether it is a loved one's face or a spiritual figure.
