What is an
Anime Portrait?

Search This Site:


powered by FreeFind



An Anime Portrait
is simply portraiture that is drawn in an anime style. Portraits often aim at exact visual likeness. However, artists sometimes intentionally alter the individual's appearance by embellishing or refining their images to emphasize or minimize particular qualities. This is done in order to express certain moods or aspects of the individual. Anime is a Japanese style of animated cartoon. It uses strongly outlined images, often in high detail, with simplified treatment of motion and depth.








Still Not Sure?


Let's take a look at
Anime-Me's portrait process:



We will begin with the Sitter, or the person who will be portrayed in our portrait.




The Artist makes a sketch of the Sitter to retain the likeness but alters some aspects to the anime style.




The sketch is then refined to a pen & ink drawing.




Finally the pen & ink drawing is scanned into the computer and digitally colored.

It's that simple!
