Detailed Painting Information
Process:
Each painting is carefully planned directly with my client to best reflect their individual style and taste. Working together, we will swap color ideas, decide on a size and determine the best photograph from which to work. Always open to special requests and new ideas, my passion is to make every painting one-of-a-kind and timeless. This consultative process can be done in person, over the phone or by email.
Progression of a portrait from start to finish:






Likeness:


Original PhotographFinished Portrait, 28" × 28", Acrylic on Maple
Materials:
I paint directly on to a maple wood surface, and use the best raw pigment acrylic paints, which I mix myself. The entire painting is hand painted by me in my studio, and comes framed.
Sizes:
My standard painting is 23.5" square, and framed in a 2.25" wide custom wood floating frame, in a gloss white finish. I am happy to work with other size requests.
Timing:
Following the initial consultative process, I work within a clear timeframe, and provide weekly updates as to the progress of the painting. I always work with an agreed upon exact delivery date. A normal size painting generally takes two weeks.
