Commission a portrait


Initial consultation

I would love to discuss your ideas with you. My work is entirely bespoke and can be created to your specifications.

You can tell me who or what you would like me to draw and for whom. We can discuss your timing requirements (if the picture is a gift, is it needed by a specific date like a birthday?).

I work from photographs and will ask you to email me a selection of your favourite photos of the subject and I can advise you on which would be most suitable to use as our reference photo. There is detailed guidance on how to choose a reference photo on the FAQ page.

Payment

I will ask you to pay a 50% deposit before I commence the work.

When the work is ready, I’ll send you an image to approve and, once you confirm you are happy, final payment can be made.
