Commissioning A Portrait & Price List


Guarantee
Your satisfaction with your portrait is completely guaranteed. I will make any reasonable changes that you request after you receive it. If you are still not satisfied, I will refund the full price of the portrait upon it's return to me in original condition.

Procedure
The client and I will discuss the portrait commission and all details involved. This may be done by phone, mail or e-mail.



Medium
Oil is done on a stretched canvas. Oil paintings offer more detail and will have rich tones that bring out the features of the subject.

Your painting will be posted on a private page for you to view. Please understand the quality of the portrait is somewhat disortated on line and will not fully repesent the portrait.



Photographs
Photographs should be no smaller then 5x7 inch.

Photographs are used and always returned to the client. You should look for a photograph that refects the subject's personality.

A sharply focused photo is best. If I can't see details, it can't be painted properly.

Please include your name, address and phone number with the photos.

If you have a professional photographer take the photos, get a release so that I can use the photo as a reference. Photographs are copyrightable, just as are paintings.



Delivery And Payment
Once an agreement has been reached, and subject matter has been viewed, a time frame will be given. This will be within a 4 to 6 weeks time frame depending on the portrait. A 50% non-refundable deposit is due to start your portrait. There will be an additional charge for touch-ups requested by the client.

Payment may be made by personal check, money order or cashiers check. Payment by check requires 10 business days to clear the bank before shippment of any painting.

Payment of the balance is due prior to portrait shipment.



Framing
Because of the wide range of frames and possible damage that can be caused during shipping to the portrait, framing is done by the client. I am more than happy to offer suggestions.



Pricing
Please contact me for pricing of your work.
