Welcome to Pencil Portraits by Gene
Our pencil portraits are drawn with graphite on high quality acid free paper. Standard sized paper is used to help hold down framing cost.
Portrait Artist Gene Ellis: Pencil portraits from photos of, babies, children, men, women, and pets. A pencil sketch by Arizona-based portrait artist Gene will be handed down through generations.
Flash photos take away shadows needed for a realistic pencil sketch. High quality photos give better results. If you can see detail in the eyes, (eye lid opening) the photo will give you good portraits.
Thank you very much for your interest.
