COMMISSIONS
I am available for portrait commissions. The lead in time for commissions can be a while though, so get in touch early!
The below information explains my portrait commission process. If you're interested or have further questions, please email me: george.art.design@gmail.com
PRICE INDICATION:
An oil portrait on a 40x50cm pre-framed canvas (as pictured), would begin at $1,500 NZD + shipping. Please get in touch for pricing of other sizes or requirements.
PROCESS:
Discussion about the size and price of the commission.
Once the price has been agreed, we choose a photo. I prefer to take my own photos for reference, so the portrait subject needs to be local to the Bay of Plenty region in New Zealand (I will charge for travel if outside of Tauranga).
Sharing of ideas about colours and agreeing on which photo to use as reference.
PAYMENT:
Once we have agreed on a reference image, a 20% deposit will be required before I begin the painting. When the commission is complete, I will request full payment. When this is received I will courier or deliver the work to you.
If you change your mind and do not wish to go ahead with the commission after I have begun painting, there is no need to pay the balance but the deposit is non-refundable and I am free to sell or exhibit the finished artwork.
