Captured in Pencil
by artist Andrew James Holmes

A self taught artist, I specialise in graphite pencil drawing to create greyscale artwork with exceptional detail.

I offer a popular pet portrait service that allows me to create striking artwork of your pets, and my wildlife drawings are an expression of detail in nature.

Pet portraits - celebrate the unique beauty of your beloved companions

With over 10 years professional experience and over 500 pets Captured in Pencil, I seek to capture every last detail of the subject to create a portrait that reflects your pets personality and spirit. The love you have for your pet is matched with my passion for drawing and dedication to create the perfect artwork for you. The result is more than just a drawing, it is a tribute to your beloved pet and a cherished keepsake that will last a lifetime.
Andrew Holmes is a genius with a pencil, and a favourite artist at Dogs Today.
