Hello!
If you have arrived here via my Facebook ad, welcome! The service I am offering is simple: to create a classy, hand-drawn black-and-white profile illustration for you that will lend distinction to your Facebook page. I will be emailing you two files: a printable, 300 dpi scan that you can also use for anything, plus a smaller jpg version that will be easily uploadable into your page.
As an introductory offer, for a lilmited period of time, I am offering this for $50.
What you need to provide for me is simply a favorite picture that you would like made into an illustration, preferably a jpg or tiff file with features that are clearly distinguishable. Although the drawing will take me two hours on average to complete, finish time will vary depending on where you are in the queue. and we will be in touch about that via email.
SEND ME AN EMAIL with questions, comments and so on and I will get back to you.
Payment will be conducted via paypal. I have provided a link with the 'Buy Now' button. I look forward to sprucing up your profile!
Examples of my illustration skills are on this page. These drawings span a time period of about 25 years. Most are studies of the human form executed during art class or on my own time; some are preliminary drawings for murals, and a few are commissioned works.
