Commission a portrait


Interested in commissioning your own wildlife or pet portrait?

​​A large part of my work is commission based, be it a wild animal or pet portrait.

I always enjoy the variety that commissions bring and am pleased to consider any animal commission project.

Prices vary depending on size of commission and subject matter. As a rough guide a pastel painting of around 16" x 12"  can take about 3 to 4 weeks and price is around £300 - £400. A 16" x 12" detailed pencil drawing will take me anywhere between 5 to 6 weeks and the price is between £200 - £300.  These prices are just a guide and so please contact me for a proper quote.


Commissions can take up to 2 -3 months during busy periods. Again please feel free to contact me for any further information or questions you may have and I will be more than happy to answer them.

How to commission a portrait
To create a pet portrait, I need to work from clear, high resolution photographs. Please click here for tips on the best kind of photograph to send.
If you would like me to create a wildlife portrait of your favourite animal, you can either send me a photo that you would like turned onto a portrait, or you can let me pick one myself. I will email you my suggestions. As the client you will, of course, have the final decision on what photo you want to be used.

Payment
To secure your commission a deposit of 25% of the total cost is required and the rest is payable on completion. Payment is made via PayPal. 
Once I have checked the photographs and we agree on your requirements and delivery schedule I will ask for the 25%, non refundable deposit of the agreed price.

For example, if you wanted to order a 16" x 12" pastel portrait at a cost of £350, you would first pay an £87.50 deposit (25%) upfront. Once the portrait is completed, you would pay the remainder of the cost, in this case £262.50
​

Deadlines
Your booking fee will give you a place on my waiting list, however I work on a first come first served basis once the 25% deposit is received. If you have a deadline in mind, please let me know when it is and I will see if I can accommodate it for you.
