Hello everyone, im new to the forum, my name is craig smith, i sell A5 portraits for £5 each(per subject). These drawings are pretty quick and take me around an hour to draw and are drawn on top quality A5 cartridge paper. I draw all kinds of animals from rabbits to horses, but as ive only just started selling at this price i only have dogs to show as examples at the moment.

If you are interested in having a £5 portrait drawn then simply send me your photo to my email address which is fivepoundportraits@hotmail.co.uk , i will then draw your photo then send you a sample photo as soon as ive finished to make sure you are happy with it and to see if you want any alterations making. You can then pay by cheque or paypal and then i will send your finished drawing out to your address:)

All of my drawings are to a high standard, even tho I draw them in a short amount of time i still take exceptional care over every drawing i do. Here are some examples of my £5 drawings i have done for other customers:

Ah wow, they're great! Not got any decent photos of my lot tho i dont think. Would you be able to combine 3 photos of my 3 dogs into 1 drawing?

hi speedDemon, thankyou very much:) erm...it all really depends on the photos and the stance of your dogs, if theyre all sitting normally then i guess it could be done :)

cheers,

I recently received 2 of these portraits - one of a friend's dog and one of my old lass Mina and I'm delighted with them, he's really captured their expressions and the one of Mina brought a little tear to my eye!

Thanks Craig.

Oooh - those drawings are wonderful! I shall send you a pic of my beagle pup as soon as ive managed to get her to sit still long enough to take one!! She seems to know what the camera is and makes a mad dash as soon as she sees it...

Is your paypal address the same email as i send the pic to?

Thanks,

Nikki.

hey nikki, thankyou very much:) yes just give me a shout when you manage to get a piccie of your pup, lol i know how hard it is to get them to sit long enough for a nice photo.
