Enhancing Resource Photos




How often do you meet a problem where you are attempting to do a portrait of someone who is deceased, but lack a good resource?
I would like to do a portrait of my uncle as a gift to my cousin (his daughter). Shortly after her parents' divorce she was separated from her father only to re-unite with him years later when he was dying of cancer. This being a year since his death, I think it would be a fitting gift.

Is it possible to enhance mediocre photos to resource quality?

All the good photos of my uncle were taken in black and white, so this portrait would have to be a drawing, unless I can find a stand in.

Matthew
