Commissions
“In the eyes of every creature, great or small, lies the essence of the truest Grace. If we stop and take a moment to look deep enough, we will see, reflected back to us … our own Nobility.” ~ Simone
You schedule a consultation via Zoom or phone. Or we can do it in person if you’re in the Los Angeles area. Email me through the Contact Me link below and we can set it up
We discuss the details (style, size, price, etc.) What are you wanting to commemorate? A special horse? A special moment? Or do you just want something unique and spectacular to fill a wall?
You send me a photo or photos to work from. If you have more than one, we select which one represents the best feel you wish to capture. (Quality images are essential. One excellent photo will save much more time than working from multiple images and having to edit them together. Although that can be done if multiple animals are a part of the portrait)
You pay the 50% deposit and sign the Artist Contract.
I do a spec sketch with the layout and get your approval.
I start the painting. If you want to be kept in the loop, I’ll touch base throughout the process to share progress.
I let you know when your painting is completed and send you a photo of the completed piece for final approval.
You pay the balance.
I pack and ship your painting. (Larger sizes will require custom packaging)
Your painting arrives and becomes a treasured part of your collection.
*Time to complete the painting depends on size, details and the length of my wait list. 6-8 weeks is a general time frame.
