Ancestry and family tree sketches

September 14, 2026Personal use

"Old photographs are notorious for being small, discolored, or similar problems. I find the Line Sketch style a very nice alternative to bring all the images together in a consistent feel that is at a scale large enough to print and publish well."

Todd uses the ColorBliss Line Sketch style on old family photographs. The sketches give faded or tiny originals a shared look that is large enough to print and publish with his ancestry research.

See the photo and sketch pairs on his ColorBliss Samples page.

"After discovering the variety of images that ColorBliss is capable of making, I decided to follow the long held goal of making a coloring book. Once again based on the seminar, but this time using the cartoon and anime styles more heavily. Some of these are entirely from text prompts rather than renders or photographs."
