Owning an original piece of art can be a unique and pleasurable experience, especially if it’s a piece that is meaningful to the collector. Commissioning a portrait is one way to ensure that your artwork is something that you will cherish for years to come.

The price for an oil portrait painting will depend on a number of factors including the size of canvas, the pose, the number of subjects to be painted, and the amount of background detail you want in the painting. The following price list will give general guidance for a commissioned portrait, however the prices may vary depending on the factors discussed above.

For a more specific quote,
you can send me your photo, the desired size of the finished painting, and then I will contact you with my thoughts on how the piece should best be approached. We can discuss further from there.
