Body Positivity

Overview

Affirming portraiture - in two styles: fast 10 min or full color45 min. Fast and personal or Intimate, freeing and affirming. All kinds of parties from family weddings as party favors to adult and spicey adult themed parties, even healing events as body positivity. In any case, the experience is without comparison.

Scroll through the gallery to see examples of people who say that the experience has made them feel more free, powerful and appreciated. Please, shamelessly ask for examples of the more spicy if you are considering something wild.

As affirmation specialists, we paint what others see that make an impression and it is usually quite different from your own perspective.

Beyond Caricatures is great

This is the first and certainly not the last time we will offer caricatures during our annual picnic for Multiple Sclerosis clients and their family members. On top of being skilled artists Joseph and Lisa were very warm, patient and kind. We certainly would hire them again and encourage you to do the same.

Really fun

It's really fun to find out how you look in a FaceScapes drawing. Not a typical sidewalk sketch portrait, but an original drawing of you. Joseph and Lisa are a lot of fun to sit for.

About

Lisa and Joseph have drawn people since childhood. Schoolmates, teachers, bosses, coworkers and passengers on public transportation have given ample opportunities for practice and fun.

After attending Hipbone Studio in east Portland for years they offer portraiture from fast black and white (down and dirty) to full figures of body positivity.

Influences and inspiration

The casual observation of anyone's face influences us to find the unique shapes that are the essence of one's likeness. We have been influenced by our many teachers, combining many techniques into each
drawing or painting.

Other artists also influenced our talents and interests.
