Planning the Portrait…The client should gather any photographs that they have on the portrait subject they would like painted. Carol (the Artist) will review the client’s photos, by appointment, email or by mail.
After the photo(s) has been selected, background colors, size of painting, composition, etc. will be discussed. A portrait contract will be completed and notes taken on any special client instructions. A 50% non-refundable deposit is due at this time.
You will be notified when your portrait is completed, and delivery of the painting will be made once final payment is received by the Artist. The portrait will bring you or that special someone great joy for years to come.
