Those WSJ stipple portraits are done by a human artist?! I've been seriously assuming all this time that they were a Photoshop filter's output.

While the artist often use the exact same pose from the picture they're working from, yup, always done by hand. You can't get that kind of control by running a PS filter over an image, and fixing the stippling would be a nightmare. (And she's not the only stipple artist they've used, either.)
