Site Description: Beautiful hand drawn pencil portraits from your photos for sale. of people, animals, vehicles, buildings and landscapes.
Editors comment: What a beautiful portrait, the humble pencil must never be underestimated, this artist has excellent skill which just shines in this image here. The trick to creating a portrait, no matter what medium, is to get it right. Angela has everything correct, the eyes, which can be a killer, are spot on, the ear is perfect, it is all perfect. If you should be looking for an artist to sketch or paint a family portrait then this artist could be who you're looking for. beautiful pencil work, absolutely beautiful.

Site Description: Artist offering pencil portrait drawings from photos of people and pets.
Editors comment: This is a portrait of Hugh Grant, not that you would need me to tell you that, the likeness is excellent. I do like the pale colour tint that the portrait is drawn on, it just adds a touch of warmth to the finished work. Mike has lots of work of the same standard for sale and is pleased to offer a commission service. His site seems to be be busy with lots of helpful links to keep you happy.

Editors comment: Why have I chosen this work! well it's because that is where I would live given half a chance. This drawing captures the loneliness of the landscape quite beautifully. The gentle tones of green give the feeling of warm sunshine on a beautiful day. Oh to live there. I can recommend you pay a visit to Phil's site as he has many drawings on display, lots to be honest.

Site Name: Sue Clinker
Site description: Realistic portraits drawn from your favourite photos. Animals,Pets & humans drawn in graphite, coloured pencil & pastel.
Editors comment: We only have to look at this painting to realise that Sue knows her art. I have always said that if the eyes are right a portrait should be a success, the eyes are perfect. There are some beautiful pet portraits on the artists site, all display the same level of drawing skill. Not content with using colour Sue has many excellent graphite portraits on show. This goes to prove you need talent, not just colour, to be successful. Lovely work and worthy of much of your time.

Site description: Animals, People, Landscapes and Buildings.
Editors comment: We don't have a description from Robin himself so I shall try and give you an idea. It seems to me that whether the subject is landscape, building or portrait the result is the same, a very nice picture. For some reason I thought colour pencils would give a soft, pastel type of result, but not so, some of the landscape work is quite strong, colour I mean, that means the artist creates a good tonal depth to his work. I love this image because I love dogs, having said that you don't have to be a dog lover to appreciate this. Excellent paintings, go and see for yourself.

Editors comment: Amazing work ! I am amazed at the quality of this artists work, it is outstanding, the site design is pretty good as well ! I am not sure where to begin, The image I have chosen is just one of many that tell a story, the artist can draw people, animals, anything really and the resulting artwork is beautiful. I cannot really say a lot more as there are so many things to talk about I could go on for ever, all I will say is visit the site and be ready for a picture feast, lovely.

Editors comment: What a beautiful piece of work this is, every fold of skin, even the bone structure is accurate, excellent. Gayle has many paintings on display, for pet lovers there is everything, I chose the one I did because I happen to like dogs the most but the truth is I could have picked any one of them as they are all in this class. Superb paintings drawn with a sharp eye and painted with a keen palette, you should enjoy these, I certainly did.
