About My Commissions

My portraits are unique one of a kind photo based mixed media art. I start by photographing the subject (you, your children, your spouse, or pet) at my studio or nearby surroundings. If this is not possible I can work from several snap shots, with signed permission from the photographer to use the image. Or I can travel to you if compensated.

Once I have selected a photo or photos to use, I will transfer the image onto a wood panel and then work back into the image with paint and other media. Initially I will consult with you about background, outfit choices, color palette preferences, symbolic elements, and theme so you will not only get a beautiful portrait but also a unique piece of art specific to you. For a minimal additional cost I can also provide prints of the original for you and your family, which framed make beautiful gifts for relatives.
