Email me to discuss your requirements and when you need the completed artwork by. Minimum time needed is at least 4 weeks but it can vary so please get in early.
We will need to discuss things like colours, clothing and poses and personal touches.
Once you have decided on the details and provide the artist with a clear photo of your face, a contract will be sent out to you and on receipt of a 20% non-refundable deposit, work can begin! The deposit covers any materials or time used to create your artwork if things go pear-shaped (Please note this has never happened yet!)
Near completion of the painting you will be sent an image of the artwork so you can see if it was what you were expecting and make any final changes within reason before accepting the finished work. A final image will be sent to you for approval and once you have made the final payment it will be shipped to you.
I paint in high quality artist’s acrylic paints and use a satin varnish to finish my work.
$290.00 NZD
For this price the artwork measurements are –
400mm x 300mm x 40mm deep.
This is a standard size that I feel works well with the concept, however any special sized commissions will be considered and a quote given.
Unless requested all paintings are on stretched canvas, and are ready to hang.
For any overseas purchases canvas can be removed from the frame and rolled to send. This is usually a much cheaper option and less likely for artwork to suffer any damage. Please ask for shipping costs as they vary from country to country and over time prices unfortunately increase.
New Zealand courier costs including signature required -
$14.00 NZD Urban NorthIsland
$20.00 NZD Rural NorthIsland
$28.00 NZD Urban South Island
$34.00 NZD Rural South Island
My concept here is that I put your face on pin-up bodies but if you have a photo of yourself in pin-up then I can paint that also. (All photos in that instance only remain the property of the person who supplied them with the copyright belonging to the photographer.) Please note - signed permission from the photographer to use their image for this purpose is required before work commences.
All photographs will be kept in strictest confidence and returned with the artwork. Your privacy is valued by me.
