Commissions
“Working from your photographs, my aim is to capture the essential character and expression so that when you look at that painting or drawing, you don’t just see ‘a’ dog, but ‘your’ dog.”
Do you own a dog, or know someone that owns one?
Thinking of commissioning a portrait?
Follow these easy steps…
I work from photographs, so the first thing you will need to do is find your favourite photographs of your dog (or take some more - you can never have too many!).
It helps to have a selection so that I can work with you to decide what would make a good portrait. Sadly, some photographs make for a wonderful memory, but the lighting or composition don’t work as well for a portrait. Having a choice of photograhs to work from means that I can use elements of all of them, if I need to, to allow me to do justice to your dog.
Would you like a charcoal drawing, or a painting with a bright background. If you decide on a painting, what colour would you like for the background?
What sort of size and shape portrait are you interested in?
The smallest portrait size available is 6” by 6” (15cm by 15cm).
Is the portrait for a special occasion and / or do you have a deadline?
Send the photographs and information to me at fionastevensart@gmail.com and tell me a bit about your dog (I’m always interested!).
I will be in touch as soon as possible to discuss your commission requirements.
Prices start at £120 for a 6” by 6” (15cm by 15cm) painting or drawing including UK P&P.
I can ship internationally.
