The Process
Choosing a Photo
Full body portraits can work, but some can take away from the focal point, which is the face.
Pose
Poses that are in motion/action, don’t make good portraits. The picture should also be in focus.
Picture Quality
A good shot of the face, either head-on or 3/4 view, is the best for a portrait. The coloring also should be as close to accurate as possible.
Face
Painting
Once we decide together on the photo I will be using, I will paint the portrait, frame it, and send it out to you.
Framing
The portrait will be framed using a white frame with a white mat, or a black frame with a white mat. We will choose which looks best with the portrait colors.
The portrait is 8x10 in an 11x14 frame.
Shipping
Once the portrait is completed, you will be notified of shipping. Shipping within the US is included in the price.
