A portrait is an instant heirloom. Choosing to create one with an artist of unique abilities, is an investment. Not only a material investment but also an emotional one. What uplifts you? What inspires you? What experiences do you come from? It is important for us to see ourselves and our loved ones in positive roles. A favorite story is a wonderful way to craft a positive message into a portrait. An artist from a literary family is just the one to do this!

Lis Zadravec's award-wining colored pencil portraiture is internationally recognized.

Artist & Best in Show at the Strathmore, 1st Place in Manhattan Arts International, just to name a few awards. Her work has been included in numerous publications. Created in colored pencil, with superb detail and composition, masterful treatment of features, and a myriad of textures, with articulated light and shadow, her style is reminiscent of the masterful illustrations and paintings of generations past, when portraits were a standard luxury. With such uncanny ability, her work is today's essential.
