How much is a portrait commission? 

Please contact me above for a quote :) The total cost to commission a portrait can range from $500 to $2,5000/head, which varies primarily by size due to cost of materials and total labor time. I work with oil paints, and there will be an option to choose whether I use traditional brush OR knife techniques (preferred).  

What does the commission process look like? 

The following steps are taken to ensure you're satisfied with your commission: 

  1. Contact - Contact me regarding your commission project, and I'll work with you to provide a vision and a quote. 

  2. Contract - We sign an order. The first half of the payment is due at this time.  

  3. Composition - You will get to review and approve an underpainting (monochrome) before color and detail is applied.

  4. Changes - You'll get a few chances to make non-compositional changes as I work through the background and figures. 

  5. Completion - When it's all done, I'll share the final portrait and walk you through the work. The work is then stored safely to dry until it can be delivered. The second half of the payment is due before delivery.  

This process overall takes a minimum of 6 weeks.

How long does it take to paint a portrait? 

A portrait can take anywhere from 8 - 25 hours of painting spread across multiple days or weeks. Once completed, oil paint takes at least 2 weeks to dry.

Can I commission ceramics? 

New ideas are very welcome as I explore my own interests. Please note that pricing will vary based on size and designs. Local pick-up available. Drop-off or shipping is available at an additional cost.  

Can I buy one of your pottery pieces? 

Yes, please. Let me know which piece you're interested in, and if it's available, we can make a deal :) 

Terms & Conditions

A Legal Disclamer

The explanations and information provided on this page are only general and high-level explanations and information on how to write your own document of Terms & Conditions. You should not rely on this article as legal advice or as recommendations regarding what you should actually do, because we cannot know in advance what are the specific terms you wish to establish between your business and your customers and visitors. We recommend that you seek legal advice to help you understand and to assist you in the creation of your own Terms & Conditions. 

Terms & Conditions - The Basics

Having said that, Terms and Conditions (“T&C”) are a set of legally binding terms defined by you, as the owner of this website. The T&C set forth the legal boundaries governing the activities of the website visitors, or your customers, while they visit or engage with this website. The T&C are meant to establish the legal relationship between the site visitors and you as the website owner. 

 

T&C should be defined according to the specific needs and nature of each website. For example, a website offering products to customers in e-commerce transactions requires T&C that are different from the T&C of a website only providing information (like a blog, a landing page, and so on).     

 

T&C provide you as the website owner the ability to protect yourself from potential legal exposure, but this may differ from jurisdiction to jurisdiction, so make sure to receive local legal advice if you are trying to protect yourself from legal exposure.

What to Include in the T&C Document

Generally speaking, T&C often address these types of issues: Who is allowed to use the website; the possible payment methods; a declaration that the website owner may change his or her offering in the future; the types of warranties the website owner gives his or her customers; a reference to issues of intellectual property or copyrights, where relevant; the website owner’s right to suspend or cancel a member’s account; and much much more.
