I will reply with a price, as well as an estimated completion date.
Send me a deposit via mail or paypal (theartbyanna@gmail.com).
Once I complete the portrait and you're happy with it, I'll ask for the remaining balance.
All items are carefully packaged and sent with a tracking number. I'll only mail portraits that have been fully paid for.
Prices below are for any size portrait up to 9"x12". Larger portraits can be accommodated as well, message me with what you're looking for, and I'll send you an estimate for how much it would be.
Postage is extra.
Frames are extra, and vary depending on the size from $5.00 to 25.00 for a simple black frame.
Prices are for tonal backgrounds; you can add a detailed background for $20.
How it works (in more detail):
Once I have received your initial message, and pricing and timescales etc. are discussed, I'll ask you for a small deposit to secure your booking. My lead time varies, but I'll do my best to work with your schedule.
Please send your photographs via email to theartbyanna@gmail.com. These will be my references, and I can only go by what I see! If there is not much detail, lots of dark shadows, or very low resolution images, it means I will have to guess and fill in the areas not visible. For these reasons, I recommend multiple pictures from different angles to get clear details.
Please tell me a little bit about your friend, too, so I can get a better understanding of their personality! If the subject has passed away, and you only have limited photographs, send me what you have, and I will do my best to work with them.
During the painting process, I will keep you updated by email or facebook messages. Updates will be posted to my page as well, if there is no danger of a surprise being ruined!
When I have completed your portrait, and you are happy, I will ask for the remaining balance. I will only mail portraits once they are fully paid for. Portraits can be collected in person, too!
