Portraits done in graphite (pencil) in a realistic style. Both of these are based on a single photograph each, though I can also work from multiple photographs or live to create a finished piece. Both were created as gifts.
Risa Rocks It
I combine fine art with a fun, youthful "punk rock" energy. My background is in both traditional art as well as digital illustration.
My work has been featured on television, in magazines, books, and popular blogs such as The Hostess with the Mostess.
Risa was great to work with and provided a professional and timely product. We discussed my what I had in mind and she offered great suggestions to improve my design. She even added the smallest details I hadn't even asked for which made the final product extra special. Thank you for working with me and giving me a gift that will be a cherished reminder of my children's beautiful wedding. I would recommend Risa and her unique product if you are looking for something extra special.
Marisa did it again! My project couldn't have turned out better. I'm thrilled with every aspect of working with Marisa and can't wait to work with her again.
It is just as described. Thank you so much! My friend loves it.
