Commission Information::
In order for me to draw something for you I'm going to need your help first...The most important part of a drawing is the reference photo. I will need clear photos so that fine details in eyes or hair can be seen easily, larger photos are always better. Good contrast photos make for a great drawing, by "good contrast" I mean a nice balance of light and shadows. Natural light or light to one side (like from a window) is much better then full frontal flash, which tends to flatten out the subject.
Look over your photos and email me your favorites, send a few if you are unsure and I'll let you know which one will be best for a drawing. Once a photo is chosen I will then email you prices or sample designs for different sized drawings. The sizes I offer are 11 x 14 inches up to 18 x 24, so lets say you would like a 15 x 20 that can be done. All drawings are done in graphite pencil on high quality heavy weight Illustration boards.Prices start at $300 for an 11 x 14. I can give you an exact price only after I know what I will be drawing. A down payment will be required at the start of the drawing. Convenient weekly or monthly payment plans are always available. The turn around for your finished drawing is anywhere from a week to a few months depending on the size. Updated progress images of your drawing will be emailed to you from start to finish.
Commission artwork for a Birthday, Anniversary, Wedding or any other occasion. Memorial portraits are also available. As you can see from my work I draw in the style of realism, details are never overlooked so I am sure you will be pleased with the outcome. If you have any questions after reading the above please feel free to email me.
