How to order a portrait
by Chris Mosley
How to order a portrait?...
I create each portrait in a two way process, keeping you informed with e-mailed proof images and responding to your comments on any necessary changes. This ensures that the portrait is as life-like and true as possible. Simply e-mail a clear, detailed photograph and description of what you require including portrait size, portrait medium (watercolour or graphite), and what to include, emphasize or remove from the portrait composition.
I'll then prepare a draft composition to help show you how the portrait will look. When your portrait is complete I'll e-mail you a proof image to check if any changes are necessary and repeat this process until you are completely happy. Only then do I request any payment, giving you peace of mind when ordering online.
How much will a portrait cost ?...
Select the portrait price link in the top or side menus on each page to find the portrait prices. Only when you are completely happy with a portrait proof image will I request payment.
How do I pay for a portrait ?...
Choose to pay either by PayPal, Cheque or Bank Transfer.
How long will it take to complete a portrait?...
Portraits are normally completed within 6 to 8 weeks although I can often complete one sooner if necessary for a special occasion or birthday for example. Christmas portrait orders should be placed as early as possible due to high demand.
