Procedures

• All portraits are painted in oil on portrait-grade canvas
• Portraits are painted by photograph. Snapshots of both full-pose and face detail are desired. I will take photos of your subject if desired.
• Special objects of detail (pets, jewelry, toys, etc.) may be added at slight additional costs.
• Completion time depends on size and detail, yet most can be finished within two months from begin date. Due to demand, there is a waiting list of approximately 6 months to one year. If needed for a holiday or special occasion, I can do a preliminary sketch on the canvas that can be shown to the portrait recipient.

• Portraits of pets begin at $350 for a 14" x 18" and increase in fees with size and additional pets.
• Artistic "Magic" i.e., using multiple photos to paint different heads, clothes, jewelry, etc. on different bodies will incur additional charges.
• A $200 deposit, along with the photos, is required to begin work. Various payment options are available.
• Paintings can be framed and/or shipped for additional cost.
