Before we sign a contract, here’s what you need to know.
I prefer to work with no time constraints, but if you need the portrait by a date certain, we can negotiate it.
I will not work in a dimension shorter than 30 inches, unless the portrait is of a dog.
The portrait will be oil on canvas, and you can choose the type stretchers used for the canvas, e.g., 1.5” gallery-wrapped (which won’t require a frame, and the stretchers will be painted a complementary color) or ¾” (which can be framed).
The more intricate the portrait, i.e., presence of hands, furniture, etc., the higher the price. Ditto for any changes the buyer wishes to make before or after completion of the portrait.
I work from photographs, and I will take pictures of the subject, unless there is already a photograph of the subject I can work from. The choice of the image I use is up to me.
The buyer will receive a copy of the image I choose, in the dimension ratio of the canvas to be used, along with the price quote. One-half of the purchase price will be due as a deposit upon the signing of the contract. I will not begin the portrait until the deposit is received.
The buyer will receive images of the portrait’s progress at least once a month.
Yes, you read that right. I happily paint dogs.
