Work can be commissioned from your submission of images via e-mail and a
determination will be made if they are usable as reference. If submission is
marginal in quality or does not offer enough information about the subject, I
will request for additional images or set up a time for me to take digital images.
A fee will be determined depending on travel time within the surrounding Atlanta
area only but more often than not, I can work with your images.
All portraits are created in pastels, color pencils, and watercolors and are set
against a white background for simplicity. The image size is approximately
12" x 18" on acid free watercolor paper and are priced at $650 each.
Additional subjects within the same portrait are $100 each and will need to
be requested prior to the start of the work. Pricing does not include travel for
photo/reference shoots. Shipping is included in the price unless other
arrangements are made or for international shipping.
OIL PORTRAITS
Oil portraits follow the same process with the standard size of 22" x 28",
unframed, requiring 4-7 weeks depending on schedule, work-load demand
and drying time. Fees for oil portraits are $1800 per subject with additional
fees of $200 per subject. I recommend no more that 3 or 4 subjects per
painting at this size. If you wish for a larger size, please contact me for
pricing, scheduling, and other details. Unlike mixed media portraits where
shipping is included in price, oil paintings require a shipping charge of $25,
added for insurance within the continental US. Requirements exceeding
regular shipping, such as over-night, etc. will be charge accordingly.
Most of the portraits (Except OIL-see above) can be completed and shipped in
3-4 weeks or sooner depending on workload. I want you to be totally satisfied
with the finished art but time is an important factor so rush work is usually not
accepted but contact me as there may be spaces in scheduling that may fit
your time frame. Prior to shipping, a jpg file of the work will be sent for
your review to make sure it is to your satisfaction.
A 30 percent deposit will be required prior to start, with the rest due upon
completion and notification of shipping address and shipping cost if is an oil
painting and/or if there are special shipping requirements. Upon receipt of
the balance, your portrait will be shipped to you for your enjoyment.
