For a truly meticulous portrait, pen-and-ink is unparalleled.
Painstakingly crafted with a pen, which has a nib that is the fraction of the width of a needle, pen-and-ink portraits are built up by carefully applying literally millions of tiny dots, which are expertly and individually placed by hand to coalesce into mindboggling precision.
This medium generates a likeness akin to an image on the silver screen and is ideal for capturing a film star look. In fact, we have created works for many film and television actors, including Patrick Macnee and Charlton Heston.
To set the faces of those you love into a Hollywood-style of hall of fame, an ARTS UNIQUE™ pen-and-ink portrait is the perfect choice.
