Field notes
The page has separate sections for choosing a style, selecting a suitable photo, understanding the process, and learning what affects price. It contrasts the service with one-filter apps and says the cartoonist decides which features to emphasize while finishing details by hand. The listed work also includes custom multi-page comics and portraits of pets that have died.
