Sketch Portrait illustration

Introducing the Sketch Portrait illustrationĀ ā€” a custom, hand-drawn silhouette created with delicate pen and pencil by a portrait artist. This style offers a more expressive and artful take on traditional silhouettes, celebrating every unique curl, bow, and feature with vintage-inspired charm and storybook softness.

Each portrait is lovingly illustrated by hand, capturing the profile of your child or loved one with intentional lines and timeless detail. The result? A one-of-a-kind digital keepsake you can cherish forever.

Once complete, your artwork will be delivered as a high-resolution digital file, giving you full printing rights to bring your portrait to life however you’d like.

This sketch-style silhouette is perfect for marking milestones, celebrating childhood, or gifting something truly sentimental.

A special note from your illustration artist, Janina.
“At the start of each new drawing, my goal is to capture the essence of your loved one in a single moment in time. I focus on the subtle interplay of light and shadow to bring each illustration to life, using color and line to blend style with elegance. While my traditional tools have included red pencil, fineliner pen, and acrylic markers, Iā€™m now shifting my process to the digital realmā€”using an iPad and Apple Pencil to deliver the same level of detail, emotion, and artistry in a new, modern format.”
