Drawings from Photos

I draw subjects from photos and my unique drawings are hand-drawn with ivory black drawing pencils onto a bristol board drawing pad with an extra smooth surface.

Pencil Drawing Artists: Photos for Drawing Portraits in Pencil

With my pencil portraits and drawings, there are not many artists’ materials that can capture the beauty of people and pets like hand-drawn portraits from photographs.

I can draw pencil drawings from your photos of family members, friends, beloved dogs, or cherished pets to keep for a long time.

Pencil Portraits

I have drawn hundreds of drawings from photos for my customers in the United Kingdom and worldwide, and I can promise that I will be able to draw any person, animal, vehicle, building, or landscape from a photograph that you send to me. There is no image I will not try to draw.

Many people worldwide place orders with me to draw from their photos for gifts for loved ones or friends, and I would be glad to draw a hand-drawn portrait for you to give as a gift.

There are many artists in the UK; however, I am confident that I will be able to draw hand-drawn portraits from the photos that you send to me to draw from.


Photographs

Send me clear and sharp photographs. The quality and clarity of your photos have a considerable impact on the realism and detail I can draw in the final pencil portraits. Visit my drawing page to view examples of my work.

Each drawing is drawn without a background, and I aim to capture the likeness, personality, and mood of every subject from the photos you send to me. You can view some of the drawings on my drawing page. You can also view more of my hand-drawn portraits from photos of people, pets, and animals on my Instagram page.

Are you ready to convert the memories and photographs you hold dear into beautiful pencil portraits?

Custom Drawing of a Dog

Mike did a pencil portrait of my boyfriend’s dog, Bella, which I’d ordered for his birthday as a surprise. What can I say? Mike was friendly and professional from the first contact. All so timely and efficient! When the picture arrived, I was simply blown away!! What a gift you have, and we are lucky you are able to share this with us. Thank you so much! It made a birthday very special! Jenny Bridge
