A hand painted portrait is a soulful way to honor an individual or beloved pet. They make for a moving gift that will last generations.
This Christmas, I’m pleased to offer portraits in devotional size (8 x 6 inches) and jewel (6 x 4 inches) sizes.
Do you need to arrange a sitting? No, at this scale I will work from your favorite good quality, detailed photographs.
Will you need to frame after? Only if you want to. I offer paintings on hand stretched (by me) canvases with a fine weave to preserve details OR a wooden panel with finished sides with height of around 1 inch; both can be hung straight on the wall.
What medium will it be in? I use the best quality and fade-resistant acrylics - Golden Acrylics. They dry much faster than oils whilst retaining all the vibrant richness of color and ethereal flow that oils offer.
How long will it take? I will always do your portrait as soon as I can whilst trying to accommodate any occasion or holiday for which the portrait is commissioned. Having said that, please allow 1.5 months for it to be completed. We’ll find a deadline that works for you in the quote.
How much will it cost? For the jewel size $1268 and for the devotional size $1614 inclusive of tax, postage and packaging.
What’s the first step? Please reach out to me on the contact page. To get the ball rolling even faster, ideally send some photos too. From there I’ll work on your quote including the details of the layout, price, timeline and deposit.
