IcoPortraits are a NewNewPortrait. Icon Portraits are 32 x 32 pixel icons for desktop revealing the traditional practice of pictorial portraits through the use of files. These unique portraits are multifaceted by the nature of the files that can be temporary visualized in variable media i.e. printed on canvas, projected, and used as tools to personalize
your desktop, link folders, software and WebPages revealing a new perspective to the portrait as object.
Personal portraits are only available by commission, as it was in the past centuries. A restricted selection of portraits made for personal interest of the artist is also available.
