Your photograph redrawn in black ink on white paper, with every tone built from line alone — crosshatching, layered fine strokes and solid masses of black, never gray shading. The result has the energy of an editorial ink illustration rather than a filter run over a photo.
Faces, hair texture and clothing stay true to the picture you upload, and the place you were stays with you: the same room, the same table, the same background, simplified into line work. The eyes get the most care of anything in the drawing.
Works with
- People
- Couples
- Families
Good for
- A portrait that suits a study, an office or a gallery wall
- Black-and-white art for a room where color would fight the décor
- Groups and couples, kept in the setting the photo was taken in
