Portraits
Send an email (or snail mail) with the photo
of your loved ones and your beloved pets, in order
to commission a portrait. I advice you to not choose a reference
photo that is
flattering, but not very close to how the sitter looks like...
Choose a photo that is clear and sharp, preferably with contrast
between light and darkness, and
has a strong likeness to the sitter, especially in the eyes - the
seat of one's personality. These portraits are always hand
painted.
Completion
time 2-6 weeks.
(Payments can now be made through
PayPal as well)

Ancestral portraits.
A
pictorial family history.
You can
also send photos of your ancestors, (parents, grandparents, distant
uncles etc). I can use these to create an image or a series of
images, with their faces and figures, their place of origins, their
ancestral city, symbols and objects related to them, or the time
they have lived, poems or art pieces they loved, letters they have
written, items they have used, etc etc. creating
in this way a kind of history of your family or a kind of pictorial
family tree if you like.
These "Ancestral portraits" are a combination of
digital and hand painted art. |

You may like to see yourself (or your loved ones) as the protagonist
of a Fantasy Art piece. For
example wearing garments of a different era, a bygone or even a
future time, riding a horse or even a dragon,
holding a symbolic object, or an animal, being part of a mythical
story, a famous play or movie, or a sci-fi world etc etc. These portraits can be hand
painted or digital. |
