How
the commission works in practice
-
You select and send a photo from which you wish the portrait to
be painted. If you prefer, you are most welcome to call with your
photo/s for a consultation, by appointment. In either case we will
discuss your requirements until we come to an agreement.
-
The subject of the portrait painting is
not limited to persons only - your pet, house or favourite landscape
is also acceptable
as subject content. Changes to background & colour, omissions & inclusions
are entirely possible.
-
If your photo is in Black and White, another photo showing eye,
skin and hair colour, or a description of these, will be required.
All photos and other material will be returned to you in due course.
-
An agreement will be forwarded to you covering the aspects of the
commission agreed between us for your approval prior to commencement
of work.
-
Corporate and commercial commissions are welcome.
What you can expect, should you commission a portrait:
-
A professionaly painted portrait in
Oils on stretched canvas - size A3 (16" x 12", 420mm
