Hand-drawn pet portraits
Drawn slowly,
by hand, with love.
Send a photograph. It comes back in graphite, one layer at a time.
The film
A minute in the studio
Every portrait is drawn by hand in graphite, one at a time, from a photograph of the dog you already miss or the one asleep at your feet.

The work is what matters, so look at that instead.
The collection
A few of them
Each one carries the artist’s own words, exactly as she first shared them.
Pumpkin
This is Pumpkin… an adorable doggy belonging to the wonderful mom-daughter duo, Carrie Knight and Faith Knight. Both of these ladies have been a tremendous blessing to me!

The name
Multiplicity Crafts, since 2021
Many crafts, one pair of hands — that is what the name has always meant. It started with craft tutorials; the portraits came later, and they are what the studio is known for now. Scissors, a brush and a pencil, gathered into one flower.
Drawn to order
Have one drawn for you
Every piece here began as a photograph somebody sent me. Send yours and I will draw it in graphite, one layer at a time, and post it to you when it is finished.
