We do oil portraits from photographs.  Our method of painting portraits differs from most other "paint by portrait" sites.  Many of these other sites simply print the photo on canvas, and then paint over it.  We use several photos to arrive at the final composition.  Before we begin painting we do a pencil portrait.  We submit the pencil portrait to you for your approval before we begin the final painting.

If the pencil drawing is to your satisfaction, you notify us, sign the portrait contract. We send you a final quote and you send us the money for the portrait. We guarantee satisfaction. Our prices vary, depending on the size and by the number of subjects in the portrait.  At the present time, a 16" x 20" portrait, of one subject, typically runs $300.00, not including any framing or shipping.
