Portrait Commissions: Timeless Oil Paintings Hand-Painted for You
Each portrait I do is a unique work of art, hand-painted in oils on premium stretched linen canvas. Designed to endure and captivate for generations, my work reflects over 25 years of experience as a professional artist. My style has evolved significantly over the years, and the portraits of Angelina Jolie and Bob Dylan featured at the top of this page exemplify the refined approach I've embraced in recent years.
Whether you prefer to work from photographs or through in-person sittings, the process begins with a collaborative conversation to understand your vision, preferences, and the story you want your portrait to tell. If working from photos, I'll ask you to share 4 to 5 images that resonate with you. Once we've selected the perfect reference, I'll dedicate approximately three to four weeks to bring your portrait to life. Completion times may vary slightly due to seasonal factors—paintings dry faster in the warmer months allowing me to layer more efficiently. After completion, the painting requires an additional there weeks to dry thoroughly before it can be safely shipped to you.
