About portraits
Portrait is an artistic representation of a person in which the face and its expression are dominant. The purpose is to show the person's image, personality and even mood. For this reason, a portrait is generally not just a picture of a person. It contains the emotions and energy expressed by the person portrayed.
"I started drawing as an amateur, but later I discovered and created much more. It was not only my drawing technique that progressed, but my personality. I created myself."
A portrait is not just a depiction of a person...
A realistic portrait is the product of decades of invested energy, perseverance, technical development and personal growth. Over the years, I have developed a drawing technique that allows me to show significant depth and detail, allowing me to approach extreme realism.
Portraiture requires responsibility and respect, as I believe that a distorted portrait is an insult to the person being portrayed. Each portrait is special and unique, as we are, so I constantly try to improve my technique to be able to show a realistic image of a person.

Additional questions?
What kind of photos are suitable for creating a portrait?
A condition for making a high-quality portrait is a high-quality photo, based on which the portrait will be drawn. It is desirable that the photo of the person is close-up, high-resolution, sharp and properly lit, which is already possible with a high-resolution camera on a mobile phone. It is also desirable that photos are sent directly via email, with a size of at least 1.5 Mb. Photos sent via social networks tend to lose quality and detail.
How are portraits made?
The portraits are drawn in graphite and mixed technique with pastel. Quality pencils or pastels are used to create portraits. They are drawn on quality, acid-free paper that does not yellow over time and impregnated with a suitable impregnation for dry drawing techniques.
Can a drawing consist of several photos?
The drawing can consist of several different photos. In any case, it is better and easier to summarize as many details as possible if I have several photos at my disposal, even if it is a portrait of one person.
