How I WorkHere's how I work. Every portrait is different, but I plan for four full days for each one. The price I charge varies with the requests of the client. A basic Ancestor portrait is $400.00. There would be an extra charge to work with two or more subjects in the same painting. In return you will receive a unique, signed, giclee print ( sized up to 16" x 24" ) I only make ONE print. As a symbol of this promise I provide you with the CD containing the work file and a file formatted for 5" x 7" greeting cards. I retain the rights to reproduce the image only as a greeting card but any other use of the image will be at your discretion.
The basic Pop Art Portraits are $300 for a single image. Variations on the theme will cost a little more. I know that most artists have strict break-down of prices, but I do not work from a formula. Every portrait is as different as the requests of the client and the character of the subject.
I would prefer to have at least one conversation with you before I begin work. It helps me a great deal to understand how you feel about your animal companions.
I begin work when I have received half the payment. The balance will be due after your approval of the digital image. (I do take Pay-Pal, or a check).
I require the best available pictures of the subject. Preferably high definition digital. Paws when possible in the case of Ancestors.
Thank you again for your interest. I look forward to hearing from you. valerieleonard@sbcglobal.net
