Because I work from photographs, the inconvenience and often expense
associated with sittings can be avoided. Whenever possible, I prefer
to take the photographs, since my needs for composition and lighting
are rarely met through commercial studio photography.
Photos are taken at my studio, at your home, or other settings as
required; it's not unusual to shoot over 100 frames. I'll provide
recommendations, but I encourage your participation as well.
Sometimes I need to work with photos you have on hand, or to assist
you or your photographers in providing me the very best possible images;
I can help make this process easy for you.
Once the resource material is selected, you'll determine the medium
and the size
and therefore the price.
As the painting approaches completion, I'll ask you to participate
in a "proofreading review," so that any necessary adjustments
to the likeness can be made to your satisfaction.
Delivery arrangements are made in consultation with you. In general
you can expect your portrait to be completed 6-8, months from the
sitting date.
