Commission Portrait Process

To begin the portrait process, the artist and client work closely to determine the mood, size and background elements of the portrait. The subject’s clothing and where the final portrait is to hang will also be discussed.  Posthumous portraits will require a photo review.

During the initial meeting, the artist will explore poses of the subject in various gestures and lighting conditions. Preliminary sketches will be made from the artist’s observations. Whenever possible, an oil head study from life will be created, providing a valuable reference tool for the artist. Detailed photo reference will also be obtained.

Depending on the complexity of the portrait, this initial process takes place in one or two sittings, each lasting about two hours.

From these materials, the artist will return to her studio to generate a color composition sketch for the client’s approval. Upon consent, the artist will begin painting the portrait. If possible, she may request additional sittings from life to aid in the portrait’s completion. Delivery is arranged upon completion and client approval.

The artist feels that all finished works should be unveiled to the client framed so she is happy to provide a frame that is aesthetically appropriate.
