Digital Portrait Illustration

Turning a home photo into an original digital illustration takes time and patience. There are plenty of digital filters or apps that work with Photoshop or on a mobile device that allow the photographer to easily and quickly turn a photo into an artistic style without ever having to lay down a single brush stroke. However, these illustrations were created one stroke at a time, just as if drawn on paper.
