Area served: Anyplace I can mail a drawing to. Shipping Methods: I typically use the United States Postal Service but will consider other arrangements at the buyers request. All shipping costs are the buyers responsibility and will be added to the cost of the drawing (this may include the price of shipping materials as well).

All of my mounted drawings come ready to hang. If you choose to purchase a piece without it being mounted then you can arrange for framing with your framer of choice.

Portraits are not refundable or returnable. I work carefully with my clients to create a piece they will love. Look at my portfolio carefully, I have a specific style and cannot draw other people's styles or imitate other artists. Once a piece is being drawn I do not accept cancellations.

Custom Hand Drawn Portrait

$100

Are you looking for an interesting portrait of yourself for your website, wedding invitations, or as a gift? How about a portrait of your child or other loved ones? I can draw and color in gouache a modern and colorful portrait for whatever project or memento you wish to create. All portraits are done with ink and gouache on paper measuring 9" x 11" unless you request a custom size. The backgrounds are typically plain but some patterning can be added upon request. These pieces can be used hung on a wall or used in print and digital media (as long as artist credit is given). I will send you an original copy of the piece and can also send you a high resolution digital file if needed. I consider my style in general to be folk realism though these portraits have a very pop art feel to them.

I'm a visual artist currenting residing in Portland, Oregon. I create work in a style I call Folk Surrealism using a combination of ink, gouache, and watercolor on paper. My style includes many bright colors, detailed patterns, and creatures of all sorts.

For CustomMade, my focus is on custom portraiture. I started drawing portraits a few years ago as part of a successful crowdsourcing campaign. Since drawing all of the portraits for my contributors, portrait illustration has become a large part of my artistic practice in business.

Outside portrait painting my work explores more themes such as femininity, violence, and mysticism. My work has a strong narrative drive which carries through each piece by a very thin thread.
