@sketchyactivity - Austin Hunt Portraiture
About the artist
Welcome! I'm Austin, a professional S.C. portrait artist of 10+ years. I'm happy to answer any questions you may have about my process or pricing. The easiest way to reach me is on Instagram @sketchyactivity or via email at [email protected]. I am not currently open to commissions.
To keep things moderately cheesy, here's one of my favorite quotes from ya boy HT Thoreau:
We must learn to reawaken and keep ourselves awake, not by mechanical aids, but by an infinite expectation of the dawn, which does not forsake us even in our soundest sleep. I know of no more encouraging fact than the unquestionable ability of man to elevate his life by a conscious endeavour. It is something to be able to paint a particular picture, or to carve a statue, and so to make a few objects beautiful; but it is far more glorious to carve and paint the very atmosphere and medium through which we look, which morally we can do. To affect the quality of the day, that is the highest of arts.

Commission Rules
What I Will Draw
- People (my favorite!) - Ideally 1-2 people in a given drawing. If you want a larger group photo drawn, I recommend opting for a digital drawing rather than a traditional ballpoint drawing. If you prefer traditional ballpoint for a large group portrait, you will need to opt for a larger size (like 17x22in or larger) to accommodate the detail required for multiple subjects.
- Animals
What I Won't Draw
- Explicit content, hate symbols
- Fantasy & cartoon characters
- Landscapes, buildings, cars, or other non-portrait subjects
Turnaround Time
Turnaround time is typically 2-5 days for single-person 8x10 or digital portraits. Expect longer delays if requesting a drawing of more people!
How do you get the drawing?
For traditional drawings, I will send you the drawing in the mail! I cover shipping 😊. For digital drawings, I use Procreate, and I'll send you a high-resolution image file so that you have the ability to print the drawing on a size and material of your choice. I do not pay for printing of digital drawings.
Pricing & Payment
I do not require payment until after the drawing is complete. I accept payment via Venmo or PayPal and I'll send you my info at the time of payment. I also accept cash if you prefer to meet in person. In the pricing details, "subject" refers to a person or animal in the portrait.
