SPECIAL GIFTS & CERTIFICATES - Take advantage of the ½ off sale to buy gift certificates. If it is too close to a special event to receive a finished portrait or painting in time, then I will send you a certificate upon downpayment that you can give as token of the upcoming artwork.
Send photos per instructions and contact me for discussion of your best photograph(s), portrait size, special requests, written statements, timeframe, and cost. A downpayment of 50% of the fee will start contractual work on your painting. The second payment will include the rest of the fee plus costs of crating/shipping/insurance and taxes (if applicable). It will be invoiced and due after your inspection and approval of the commissioned work, which I will email you, in its final stage, for review (see GUARANTEE). The painting will be shipped to you upon receipt of this payment.
NOTE: commissioned fees are for unframed work and do not include crating, shipping, insurance, or applicable taxes.

GUARANTEE It is assumed that, by commissioning art from me, you place trust in my talent and artistic judgment. I guarantee my work to represent the likeness in your chosen reference photograph(s). Your satisfaction is further assured because I show you the portrait or any custom painting you commission in its final stage by email. You can then see how my recommendations and your requirements come together in a beautiful and meaningful likeness or image. You have 1 week to let me know your thoughts. If any adjustments are advisable, I will implement them without losing the integrity of the painting until you are satisfied. If I don't hear from you within 1 week, I will take it as approval and will finalize the portrait. Please note that no one has ever returned a portrait!
