Miniature
Pet Portaits in Pencil
These detailed graphite
pencil portraits are standard ACEO (Art Cards, Editions & Originals)
format: always 2.5" x 3.5" (the size of a baseball trading
card). Ann began creating ACEOs in late 2006 - they're a collectible
art form that
started
on eBay.
A commissioned ACEO-sized portrait is $60.
A high quality, detailed photo
must be provided - digital preferred, but a 5x7 print is acceptable.
Ann will come out to take photos of your pet (if you're in the Sacramento/W
Placer County area) for an additional $15. Please note that ACEO commissions
are placed on Ann's waiting list along with all other portraits.
"Buddy" and "Blue Sky Eyes" also have a bit of color pencil. That was applied
to the eyes and background after the graphite work was finished.

Color
correcting scans of graphite pencil drawings is challenging -
even though
the tones of the images above vary, they're all drawn with
the same type of pencil and the tones are very similar from one
drawing to the next. |
