Commissioned Portraiture:
Have a favorite photograph turned into a unique, mixed-media, original work of Art!

Send me a quality copy of a photograph, or email me an image with high resolution, and we can discuss what you're looking for in your portrait (mood: fun, somber, dramatic, etc.; color preferences: neutral tones, earth, vibrant, etc....; background: mountains, interior, field, desert, etc...). Depending upon the preferred price range, I will create a couple of different drafts for you to choose from. I can create a unique "uncommon" portrait on canvas (in almost any size) or quality artist paper (maximum size is 13" x 19"). I am open to working with a variety of subject matter: people, pets, cars, shoes, favorite refrigerators, etc.!!!

I accept personal checks and most credit cards. Payments may be made in installations.
