Portrait Commissions and Gift Vouchers
As a portrait artist, I capture your child, pet, or a loved one in a singular moment in time. Each portrait is a unique work of art, conveying presence, personality, and character in a way photography alone cannot. These portraits become heirlooms, one-of-a-kind pieces to be treasured for generations.

SHORT NOTICE COMMISSION
Digital Gift Vouchers
I also create digital gift vouchers, ideal for a meaningful gift at short notice. Once a 50% deposit is paid, a voucher can be prepared almost immediately. The gift-giver can print the voucher themselves, and the recipient may redeem it whenever they are ready.

Tips for Choosing/Providing Photos:
-
Use focused, high-resolution photos with clear reflections in the eyes.

Opt for softer smiles or neutral expressions for a timeless feel.

For taking your own photos, position the camera slightly above eye level, avoid using flash, and ensure natural lighting without direct sunlight on the face.

Choosing a size (Pencil, Pastel and Sanguine)
​
12 x 14' The largest sized portrait will become a statement piece within the room you choose to hang it. This size also allows me to apply a lot more detail, especially in the eyes!
​
10 x 12' This is the standard size (most popular!) which is approx. A4. This is a great size if you want the portrait(s) to be noticed from a further distance in a room but also not too large as to have to stand back. The portrait is just under life-size to the child / subject facial proportions.
​
8 x 10' A little under A4 in height. This is a lovely size if you are to hang 3+ portraits together in a line on its own wall. Or in a pyramid format.
​
6 x 8' A miniature portrait and works beautifully if hanging amongst other collections of small art works or in small spaces, such as a coving in a room or a small bathroom.
​
I do get booked up rather quickly, so if you have a particular date that you'd like the portrait(s) to be completed / delivered then do contact me as soon as possible (contact tab).
