If you're outside the Portland, OR Metro Area (or just can't make it to a live sitting) I can create a custom oil portrait for you based on photos you send me. These are the same small, illustrative head-and-shoulders portraits I create in live sittings, painted from a reference photo instead of an in-person session.
Photo-based commissions are painted in my studio in between my live sitting sessions, so they're queued in the order deposits come in. Once I receive your deposit, I'll send you a short guide on the kind of photos that work best (lighting, angle, resolution) so your portrait turns out well.
Turnaround is typically 2–3 weeks from when I receive usable photos. The painting then takes an additional 2 weeks to dry before it's ready to ship.
Small (8-10"): $250
Medium (11-14"): $400
Large (16-20"): $600
A non-refundable $20 deposit is required to reserve your place in the queue, which goes toward purchasing the materials for your painting. The remainder of the payment is due before your painting ships.
