For the bigeyed portraits I need photographs of the subject matter. Any details you would like to include will add to the portrait’s personality. For example, you may be wearing a favorite piece of clothing or holding a favorite toy, album cover, etc.
12″ x 24″ is the standard sized canvas for my bigeyed portraits. Smaller and larger sized canvas’s are also available for the bigeyed paintings. Prices vary depending on size and subject matter.
I can also paint you or your subject into any sort of scene. For example, Charlotte Caffey in the jungle, Lucy as St. Mary, etc. I will need photographs of your subject matter and artwork or ideas for the setting that they will appear in. For these particular paintings, you may order any sized canvas that you would like. Prices will be determined by size and subject matter. All paintings are acrylic on stretched canvas
To begin a commissioned painting, I will need a 50% deposit. I will then schedule the painting on my calendar. After this is done, I will email or send via regular mail a preliminary sketch for you to approve and/or revise.
At the completion of your painting, I will send you a final photo for you to approve. Then, when the remainder of the balance is received, your painting will be shipped to you.
The prices start at $550. Your total cost will be determined once the final sketches are approved by you. All prices are for “unframed” canvas’s.
I accept the following forms of payment. Cashier’s Check, Money Order, and Credit Card’s thru Paypal only. No cash please. We will ship your painting via USPS Priority Mail w/Delivery Confirmation and Insurance. The cost of shipping & handling is included in the price of your painting. International shipping rates will be more.
