I hadn't done any fine art for almost 25 years when I did this portrait
of my grandmother in pencil on Bristol board. This was done with an acetate grid of half -inch squares over
the original photo which matched a faint pencil grid that I measured out on the Bristol sheet.

Then I scanned the pencil portrait at 600 dpi
and colorized it Photoshop.
The final output for framing is 16 x 22.
