Commissions and Pet Portraits
For
pet
portraits
please
select
a
few
photographs
with
the
pose
you
would
like
your
pet
to
be
in.
Please
make
sure
your
photographs
are
taken
at
the
eye
level
of
the
animal,
in
focus
and
with
the
right
colouration.
The
quality
of
the
painting
really
depends
on
this.
I
can
advise
on
backgrounds,
size,
aspects
(landscape
or
portrait
orientation) and provide a quotation.
Price
-
depending
on
size
and
complexity,
pet
portraits
range
from
£250-500
for
typical
sizes
(e.g.
10x12”
10x14”,
12x14”, 16x20”).
Other subject matter, such as landscapes, can be commissioned and can be discussed on an individual basis.
Timing
-
paintings
typically
take
4-8
weeks
to
complete
as
they
are
often
performed
in
stages
that
require
drying
and
I
have
to
fit
them
around
other
commitments.
An
approximate
completion
timeframe
is
provided
once
the
commission is accepted, but please leave plenty of time if it’s for a special occasion.
I
will
provide
interim
photographs
during
the
painting
process
so
you
can
see
the
portrait/landscape
progress
and any feedback can be incorporated.
When completed, I will prove a final photograph of your painting for your approval.
All
paintings
are
done
on
quality
stretched
canvases,
or
boards
using
traditional
techniques.
Paintings
are
supplied unframed and postage costs are not included.
A framing service is available and digital mock-ups of frame options will be provided.
