How to order your portrait
I will need clear photograph to work from, either one that has been taken with the portrait in mind or a high quality photo that you already have. I cannot work from photos that are in any way blurred, the better the photo the better the portrait will be as there will be more detail for me to work with.
Step 2 – Sending your photo/s and medium and size requirements
You can send your photo or photos to me by email or post, it is always preferable to have more than one to look at and then I can let you know which would make the best portrait. Please look at the size and price guide to decide on your requirements for the portrait and whether you would like it in pencils or coloured pastels. Once you have decided or would like to discuss it further please get in touch.
Step 3 – Acknowledgement & Deposit
Once I have received your photos and requirements I will be in contact to confirm that your photo will be ok to work from, I will also confirm the price and take a £20 deposit – you can pay via Paypal, direct bank transfer or cheque. I’ll be able to let you know how long the portrait will take to complete. Once you confirm you are happy with this I will get to work.
Step 4 – Approval and final payment
When the portrait is finished I will scan and email it to you, once you confirm you are happy with it I will request final payment (Paypal, direct bank transfer or cheque).
Step 5 – Receive your portrait
Your portrait will be mounted (included in the price for UK) and well packaged and posted Special Delivery for UK.
