PHOTOGRAPHS
I can work from your own photograph or I can take the photograph for you in a short photo-shoot in your own environment, where you'll feel most relaxed.
In order to create the most realistic portrait, a good quality photograph is needed. High resolution digital images are best but I can also work with traditional photos as long as they are clear.
If commissioning for a multi-subject portrait, I am able to work from separate images of the subjects and compose them into one portrait.
NEXT STEP
Once the details are sorted, (like size, background detail, and completion date) I’ll email you the commission form. I’ll ask you to double-check the details on the form and confirm you'd like to go ahead with the order. At this point, the non-refundable 25% deposit is required to secure your time-slot.
My current waiting list is 4 months. Please be aware of this when making your booking.
YOUR PORTRAIT
You will receive an email when I begin work on your portrait, and I will let you know when it is near completion.
Once completed, I will send you a photograph of the artwork for your approval or any final minor adjustments (free of charge, within reason).
The remaining balance is now due. Once it is paid, your bespoke artwork will be safely packaged and sent to you via tracked service.
