Questions & Answers
Will the portrait look like the photograph I send?
-
I offer a likeness guarantee. Before I start work I will agree with you what sort of portrait you have in mind and, if requested, can give you updates along the way. I am happy to make up to three amendments included in the price.
I love seeing a happy customer and want you to feel a rush of love when you see your commission 'in the flesh' or 'in the fur'!
How much does a commissioned portrait cost?
-
We will agree the cost of the portrait after our initial FREE consultation and I will only start work when I have taken into account all your special requests.

-
Your portrait is a bespoke and unique artwork. I ask for a 50% deposit when you order and the final payment when I have sent you a finished digital image of the portrait. I'm sure you will be delighted with the results, but if the portrait is not as originally agreed, for any reason, no further payment will be required and I will hang onto it in case you change your mind.
