A custom couple portrait is a beautiful way to capture a special moment. In this A3 size graphite and charcoal drawing, I focused on the tender emotion and connection between the two, ensuring every detail from the hair to the subtle smiles was preserved.

This is my completed pencil sketch of Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark. Created on A4 size Brustro paper, this piece of fan art shows the level of realism I aim for, capturing the character's intense expression and the texture of his suit.

This A2 size portrait sketch of a child captures a moment of pure joy. I worked meticulously to render the soft texture of the knitted sweater and the cheerful expression, showing how I can create large-scale, detailed artwork from your photos.

This A3 size pencil sketch was a commissioned piece for a client in Indonesia. It's a heartwarming mother-daughter portrait where I used graphite and charcoal to create a lasting memory, focusing on their close bond and happy expressions.

The eyes are the window to the soul, and I love capturing their realism. This detailed study of an eye, drawn with a sharp pencil, showcases the techniques I use to create depth, reflection, and lifelike texture in my portraits.
