Commission Questions & Answers



​
I would like to commission you to produce a piece of Artwork - What information do you require?

Take a look at the 'COMMISSIONS' page which goes into detail on specifics but I would need an idea of the size you may be looking for and which medium you would like it in, Coloured pencils or Acrylics.  It is also important to know if you have a preference on stance such as 'full body' or just head shot. All these questions will be sent to you in an E-mail but the best option to begin with would be to mail me photographs of the commission subject.


​How long does it take you to produce a piece of Artwork?

It varies from medium to medium, for example a Coloured pencil piece can take anywhere between 1 - 8 weeks and Acrylics takes around 1 - 6 weeks, both mediums are highly detailed and so  it all depends on the size and complexity.

I would like a commission producing of a deceased pet but have no good quality photographs. What do you recommend?

You are more than welcome to E-mail me the ones you do have so I can advise - sometimes I may be able to edit and improve the photograph by using an editing software program or I will search the Internet for other reference images and use them for detail that may be lacking in a poor reference. There have been times I have not been able to work with a photo but I will try my best, however remember that the quality of the Artwork is greatly improved with great detailed photographs.

I would like a piece of Artwork producing for a certain date, would you be able to do it?

That all depends on the 'date' it is required for and obviously the requirements of the piece.  I will happily work to deadlines if it is possible so please drop me a message with the details or stipulate it on the BOOKING FORM and I'll see what I can do.

How much do you charge for a bespoke piece of Art?

This all depends on requirements such as medium, size and subject(s). You can take a look at one of the galleries either ACRYLICS or COLOURED PENCILS, to view prices and sizing which gives a breakdown of costs dependant on your preferences. Each Gallery page has a price list at the bottom of the page so you can view past portraits also, however, you can always drop me an E-mail if you have a specific commission idea.

I do not live in the UK, do you offer the option of commissions from Overseas?

Yes, as I work from photographs and can post progression shots on my website, it is very easy for me to produce a commission for anyone, anywhere in the world. Payments are made via Paypal which is a secure and trusted online payment site.

Do you offer framing with the commission?

I offer a full framing service for my Acrylic paintings - details and examples can be found on my FRAMING page.
My coloured pencil portraits are sent unframed. Pencil portraits can be framed in so many different ways and as it is a personal choice, I would always recommend you are able to spend some time with a local framer who can help and advise on the options they offer, also there are sadly no delivery companies that will insure glass and in case of damage, I prefer not to offer a framing service with my pencil portraits unless a portrait is being collected in person.
