Prices above are for one sitter; cost for multiple subjects, pets, larger sizes, overly intricate elements or other factors will be discussed and priced accordingly. Prices do not reflect cost of frame, any out-of-town travel cost, shipping charges, or applicable taxes.

 

Portraits are done on museum standard archival hardwood or on prepared smooth linen, whichever is suitable or preferred by the client. All materials used throughout the portrait process are of the highest quality and permanence.

 

Pencil or Conti crayon renderings can be requested for considerably less than figures cited above, yet as always dependent upon adequate photography, preferably of the artist own making.

 

Dimensions given above are approximate, and are exactly determined in the course of the project. Subjects are usually painted life-size or just under life-size.

 

Posthumous renderings will be considered based on availability of adequate photography.
