My goal is to exceed your expectations - to capture your portrait with sensitivity and spirit. I consider a portrait to be a partnership between the subject and myself. Commissions are very personal. I take time and care in painting your fondest memory.

Call or E-mail me to discuss details of your commission, including size, format, personal objects in painting, interior or exterior setting… as well as positioning from head and shoulders to full figure. Once your needs are determined you will receive a price quote within 48 hours. Upon determination of your needs, a 50% non-refundable deposit will begin your portrait followed by 25% mid-way through painting and a final 25% upon your painting's completion.

Working from Photos - or Live Sitting and Photos

I can come to your location for preliminary sketches and/or photograph your subject. You may also choose an existing favorite photo, along with several other photographs of your portrait subject in order to gather more than one view of the subject to assure best representation. Generally, photos with one directional source of natural light and no flash provide the best results.

To provide the best likeness, your photo must be of high quality resolution. If the photo is provided in digital format, a 300 dpi or greater would be required. This includes archival or old family photos.

Commission Charges

Prices vary by complexity, size, number of subjects, detail and more.  Contact me and I'll be happy to work with you in providing lasting memories in portraiture.

Thank you for considering my services!
