Why not just snap a photo?
A photo is fleeting.
The portrait an artist creates is intimate.
Every feature and nuance is accounted for: freckles, scars, wrinkles, color variation is studied and drawn. There is movement and grace that can be seen with each stroke. A relationship is happening between the subject, the artist, and her tools.
A photograph captures light; a portrait captures the soul.
Thank you for your interest in a portrait. You are purchasing a one-of-a-kind work of art. I will create a beautiful portrait that you will love and treasure.
Portrait pricing depends on size. Every portrait is unique and requires time to get the details and personality perfect (55+ hours).
100% Guaranteed Satisfaction!
*pricing starts at $600 for a 8"x10" portrait size
A NON-REFUNDABLE deposit of $100 is required to begin your project, with the balance due upon completion. You are welcome to work out payment arrangements with me.
Calendar spots are reserved on a first come, first serve basis. By placing a deposit, you are reserving your spot on my 2021 commission calendar. I'm currently booking for October commissions. 
POLICY: If you are not able to send me pictures by or within a few days of your begin date I will need to reschedule your portrait for another date. My calendar books approximately 6-12 months in advance so that might mean having a new begin date at a much later time in the year. Thank you for understanding!
