Framed Micro Portraits




Drawing at such a minute scale presents an ongoing challenge, achieving the finest likeness within the constraints of such a small space. With no machinery or magnification involved, each portrait is handcrafted using only graphite pencils, relying entirely on experience, patience, and precision.
There is no fixed timeline for completion. Each piece demands a unique level of involvement, with the time required dictated by the complexity of the subject. No portrait is just a picture; every face presents a new challenge, requiring multiple attempts to capture the person's depth, character, and essence.
Another major constraint is the delicate balance of corrections. In micro portraits, the eraser process isn’t what most would imagine, it’s not about wiping away errors, but rather about sculpting features within a margin of millimetres. Even the slightest adjustment can shift the entire composition, often influencing surrounding details and making it nearly impossible to reverse, sometimes requiring a complete restart.
From carefully selecting materials to executing every delicate stroke, the process is a continuous refinement cycle. It is an art of persistence, where every millimetre counts, every tool has its limit, and every attempt brings the portrait closer to perfection.
The creation process





Sharpened to a point finer than a needle




No magnification tool — just a trained mind and eye
