Custom House Portrait: Pen and Ink with Pastel, Architectural Art (10" x 8")

What to know

Materials

India ink, faber castell firm pastel, acid free board, fixative

Dimensions

Width: 10 Inches; Height: 8 Inches

Made to Order

Yes

This sample of my original pen & ink w/ pastel overlay custom home portrait is from from a previous house portrait commission. I have been doing architectural portraits for over 30 years, working with home owners, builders, realtors, and businesses.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions and for suggestions on how to take your photos. If you want a different size, let me know and I can post it. You can attach photos to an etsy convo or email them directly to me.

ORDER EARLY FOR SPECIAL OCCASIONS

My home and business portraits are hand executed using pen and ink for fine detail and a pastel color overlay on acid free board. They are created from your photos as a reference for a one of a kind piece of artwork. I can change the season and remove distracting items such as signs and telephone poles and wires. Actual size may vary slightly in order to make the best presentation for your portrait.

It usually takes 2-3 weeks for your portrait depending on my studio schedule.

Please visit my shop for other architectural artwork, home portraits, gift tags, aceos, and bookmarks.

“My wife and I were looking to give our son an 8" x 10" custom home portrait for Christmas. There are many artists to chose from when selecting a custom home portrait on Etsy but we found Ruthsartwork and were impressed by the quality, colors and realism of her work and decided to go with her and were so happy we did. She did such an excellent job on our son's home portrait that we decided to commission her to complete a second home portrait for our daughter as well. Ruth maintained frequent communication with us throughout both projects and provided us a preliminary ink drawing to ensure we were satisfied. The quality of her work is noticeable throughout the fine details and coloring she exhibited on both portraits. We highly recommend Ruthsartwork... you will not be disappointed. Tony V.
