Pencil & watercolor portraits from your photos. Welcome! I'm Mike Theuer, a professional portrait artist. I turn your photos into pencil portraits and watercolor portraits by hand. My style is expressive, so you'll see pencil lines in my drawings and brush strokes in my paintings. I also pay close attention to light and shadow so my drawings and paintings appear to glow.
