I offer bespoke oil painting commissions, with prices starting from £300 for a 10' x 12' oil painting.

Lots of size options are available to create your perfect painting, I would love to discuss your idea, whether large or small!

​Please contact me to discuss your bespoke painting and I will be happy to provide a no obligation quotation.

Commission Information

 Reference Photograph(s)

I work from photographs, so it is important to provide clear, high quality images. These can be taken on a smart phone (the cameras are typically very good these days) or a digital camera, ideally taken outside in good light. I can also use any professional images you may have. For multiple subject compositions, I am able to combine individual photographs into the same piece, providing they are of similar light aspect and quality.

If you have a treasured favourite photo of not such good quality, it may be possible to use some additional images for detail reference - so don't despair! Please contact me and we can discuss the options. 

​Timescales

This will depend on current workload, but please allow at least 4 weeks for your finished painting or drawing (Requests for shorter timescales can sometimes be accomodated upon request!)

An estimated completion date will be discussed at the time of order. Oil paintings do require at least 1 week drying time from completion, in order to be 'touch dry' to post, so please bear this in mind.

 Payment

A 50% deposit is required at the time of booking a commission, with the balance payable upon completion, once you are 100% happy with the finished piece. Payment via bank transfer or PayPal is preferred. 

Postage and packaging

A quote will be provided at the time of order as postage costs vary greatly dependent upon size. I am also happy to hand deliver local orders.

​Materials 

My oil paintings are created with artist quality oil paints on the highest quality linen panels.

​Framing

Framing is an important and personal part of the overall look of the finished portrait, and some would say an art in itself! I work in partnership with a local framer, and framing options and quotes can be individually discussed.
