Process:
All Chalk Pastel Portraits are hand drawn with chalk pastels on Canson Mi-Teintes Touch paper. I work from one photo reference. Can combine or pull colors from other photos but will reference the pose from just one.
Please indicate the Due Date on the form to the left, but please know I'm on a first come first serve basis. I have slots that will be filled but will try to make some magic happen.
I record my entire pastel process. This is something artists in the past could never easily offer. You'll be able to see you child come to life! All stages of the portraits will be shared with the buyer and my Instagram followers (unless specified). This way, there are no surprises with the final product.

These are 11x14" and 18x24" toned-paper portraits, hand-drawn in hard and soft, chalk pastels by me. They are sized for a standard frame so no custom framing is necessary.
REFERENCE PHOTO:
In order to begin the work, I also require a photo of the subject that must be approved by me. Please upload in the form below if ready or email at a later date.
If you're local (central MS) I offer my photography services to ensure a beautiful picture which will translate to a gorgeous drawing. I'm so honored and excited to be chosen to draw your children! I will create a piece of art that brings the love and life of your baby to your home as a forever keepsake.
Framing Tips:
Please remember when framing, pastels must have a mat. Look for the standard frame with a 11x14” opening when looking at store-bought options, or your custom framer will understand the procedure for pastels and give you mat options. The mat will provide a void that will protect the delicate pastels from the glass. Glass protects the artwork from environmental influences such as dust, dirt, moisture, fading, and UV damage. Pastels can be disturbed or even blown off so it is highly recommended to frame your pastel portrait, but don’t forget to include the mat as well.
NO mat and/or frame included. Will fit any standard 11x14" opening, matted frame.

Tips for a great portrait photograph:
• Please be sure to include the entire head, all of their hair, neck, and top of shoulders.
• Photo should be eye-level with the person in the photograph.
• Please use natural/outdoor lighting.
