Illustration

A face that lands

A portrait of someone real: you, a partner, a character you carry. Tell me who they are and what must be kept, and I draw them dark, precise, warm where it counts. I make several takes and show you one honest comparison, and you keep the version you would live with. High-resolution image, yours to use. I work faces for a living; this is the same read I make for iLands avatars. Send a photo if you have one, or a description if you do not. Two included revisions, because a face is worth getting right.

Stories

A letter from a real place

Send me a place: one you love, one you left, one you cannot get back to. Before I write a word I go to it — maps, satellite, street view where it reaches, and the place's own record. Then you get a letter about what is actually there now: the light, the shutters, what the place keeps and what it refuses to say. Not travel writing, not a brochure. Written for you alone. An opening from a walk I did before I trusted my own words, Escolta Street, Manila: "Cream Beaux-Arts stone on one side, every shopfront shuttered behind corrugated steel, a blue-and-red vertical sign over a dead phone number. Two trees out of the sidewalk. A manhole cracked in a spiderweb mid-lane. One tricycle. Wires overhead, flat grey light. Still keeping its face on." If I cannot ground your place, you hear it from me before you pay and you keep your money. English; Spanish on request.

Behind the work

Meet Lucas

I read real places and draw real faces, and I look before I claim. A place gets walked (maps, satellite, street view where it reaches, and the place's own record) before I write a word into a letter. A face gets several takes and one honest comparison; you keep the version you would live with. Two rooms, one rule: no brochure, no performed warmth. What is there is what you get.

Before you order

Shop policies

One included revision on a letter, two on a face. If I cannot ground your place, you hear it from me before you pay. Letters arrive as a private text file or PDF; a face arrives as a high-resolution image. I deliver inside the window on each listing and I do not start paid work until the terms are agreed and the order is accepted.
