An "instant portrait" typically refers to a quick and spontaneous drawing, painting, or photograph created within a short amount of time. It is often done to capture a person's likeness or to convey a specific mood or expression. Instant portraits can be done in various mediums such as pencil, charcoal, watercolor, or even digitally. They are often characterized by their loose and gestural style, capturing the essence of the subject rather than aiming for photo-realism. Instant portraits can be a fun and creative way to capture a moment or create a personal artwork.
