Jo Holden
Profile
Hi! My name is Jo Holden, I’m a self-taught graphite portrait artist, occasional graphic designer, crafty person, wife and mum to my two beautiful little kids and my lovely stepdaughter.
Drawing is my life’s passion. I love to create beautiful and unique graphite pencil portraits from photographs. My portraits strive to be photo realistic and aim to capture not only the features of my subject, but also their essence.
Portraiture has always been my fascination. I love the challenge of capturing a realistic and high quality likeness from a reference photograph. I pride myself on the high detail in my work and the layers of smooth, subtle rendering in every portrait.
I take commissions and would love to create a beautiful portrait for you. Please visit my website Fine Etch Pencil Portraits and enjoy browsing through my Portrait Gallery.
