The art
of portraiture is literally thousands of years old,
and continually evolving. My goal as an artist is
to tell a story about the subject, capturing the essentials
of their personality as well as their likeness. There
is no substitute for an oil portrait of your loved
one. Whether it's your grandchildren, your entire
family or just your favorite animal family member,
you will capture a special part of your life with
which no photograph can ever compare. Every time you
gaze upon your portrait, a flood of emotions carrying
the time, the place and the memories will rush through
your heart.
To begin
this process, first, I discuss with you what type
of portrait you are looking for; the size, the mood,
and a general color sense, so that the painting desired
will fit comfortably in the home or business. We will
then schedule a sitting (if possible) at an appropriate
location where reference photos are taken trying different
poses.
Oil Portraits
start at $600 per individual for a medium size painting.
Larger is definitely an option that will alter the
price according to the actual size you desire.
If this
is a long distance portrait, I will be relying on
you to send me photos that are representative of how
you would like your portrait realized. Consult my
Portrait
Gallery for examples of portraits in oils
I have completed.
Please
call 559-738-9808 or email
me to discuss prices and details on the portrait
waiting to become a family heirloom.
