Pet Portraits & Commissions
Let me capture your beloved pet’s personality on canvas. Please contact me for pricing and options.
A recent Commission to do a Portrait of a friend’s beloved dog has blossomed into a love of doing Pet Portraiture. Seeing the joy and happiness a customer feels when they see my tribute to their beloved pet makes this all worthwhile. It is the most rewarding part!
I do accept Commission requests for paintings other than Portraits. The process is simple. We discuss what you would like – image, size, background, colors, type of canvas, and whether or not framing is required.
I am a Photorealist painter, so I require a photo(s) to begin. Once we have the details worked out, I require a 50% deposit before I begin. This indicates to me a commitment on your part and covers any initial expenses involved.
I keep in touch with my clients, sending progress photos to ensure that they are happy with my initial drawings, background and layout. I also send a photo when I am nearing completion of their piece, for final input from the client.
Balance owing is to be paid before pick up / shipping, and shipping cost is at the client’s expense. I will personally deliver paintings to clients who live in Calgary and surrounding area. Discounts on cost of painting are considered if the painting is to be shipped.
