Specializing in custom portrait sketches from photos! Popular for birthdays, anniversaries, weddings, and general memorabilia. I don't have any custom portrait listings active at the moment, but if you came here to find them, please contact me! I'm trying to keep my commission list small at the moment so I do not want my listings showing up on search.

5 out of 5 starsHeather did an exceptional job in capturing my mom's beloved dog who passed away earlier this year. My family and I were all blown away when we opened it together, and it brought my mom to tears she was so moved by it. My sister said the drawing had more life to his eyes than even the original picture did. Absolutely incredible, I would recommend 💯! My family and I will definitely come back for more in future.

For the Love of Art
Ever since I can remember, I have spent the majority of my spare time drawing and painting. I continue to nurture and improve my skills everyday and I decided to share it with others.
I started my shop on Etsy to reach a wider audience of people who would love and cherish the art I make, especially the pieces I do only for them. I love to work one-on-one to bring a person's vision to life, to put life into a photo of theirs, to make gifts for their loved ones and more.
Working from photos is something I will always enjoy, because there is a transformation between the photo and the finished piece, making that moment even more special. Drawing or painting is a much more intimate and personal medium than a photograph, and the finished product can say so much more. There is a creative freedom where detail can be added or subtracted. The photograph can become anything you want it to be.
