Pastel Portrait

QUESTIONS ABOUT THE PROCESS

Can I see the portrait as it's being created?

Yes, you will have a private page on which I will post frequent updates of your portrait as it is being created. You will see it progress from sketch to finished portrait over time! You can also make suggestions and comments at this time. To view a sample page, click here.

What size portrait should I commission? What sizes are available?

Any size portrait is available. I recommend nothing smaller than 11"x14" and that's pretty small. Portraits may be as large as you want. Pastels and watercolors can be 48"x any length. Oils may be any size.

If you are doing one subject, head or head & shoulders, you can do 11"x14", but other than that, I would recommend a larger portrait so that the beauty of the art is visible. When I see the photos that you want to use, I'll give you my suggestions for size.

How do you decide what the layout should be?

You decide what the layout will be - I will study the photos that you send, draw up some ideas and put them together. Then I will EMAIL the layouts to you or post them to the private page and you can decide which one you like the best. If you don't like any of them, I'll draw up some more.
