PHOTO SUBMISSION:
To order your own drawing of a pet or person, you first need to send me a high-resolution photograph of the subject. It must be the EXACT one you want, unless you’re getting a digital manipulation or a graphic montage (which costs extra). For example, if you want a portrait of your dog, make sure the feet are not cut off, because if they are, that is how it will be drawn.
BACKGROUNDS:
The portrait will be drawn with the subject only. If you’d like a background or something else in the drawing, please contact me first so I can give an accurate quote if additional items are wanted.
MEDIA:
The standard media I use is graphite pencil; a standard 0.7 non-toxic lead.
SIZES:
The standard sizes for a portrait are 5×7, 8×10, 11×14, and 16×20. If you need a custom size or other size(s) than this, please contact me first, before ordering, for a quote. To display your art, professional matting and framing are recommended.
SURFACES:
Natural mixed media paper is the standard surface for all portraits. It is archivable, non-toxic, acid-free, and recycled.
