These are "traditional" oil paintings which involve layers of paint and can take several months to plan and complete. The procedure generally begins with sketches and up to two hundred photographs of the subject. Client input is important and the client will have the opportunity to review plans for the painting. There is a 20% discount for each additional subject in a painting. Highly detailed backgrounds may incur an additional fee. Travel fees, shipping, framing and applicable taxes are not included in the price.
