Commissions and Paintings

I do take commissions for portraits and paintings. If there is something that you would like me to paint for you , you are welcome to send me what you have so that I may quote you. If you are interested in a nude portrait, I also offer a private photography session that is included as part of my offer. I take up to 300 photographs in the session which we can go through together and decide on what you would like me to use in the painting. I will copy all the photographs to a cd for you to keep.

EMAIL ME HERE and remember to include all the details of your request.

If you have a photograph that you are willing to share with me that you think may make a great painting, you are welcome to email it to me too or to post it on the Painting Cave wall on facebook. Please be certain that if it is not your photograph that you have permission from the photographer to use it.
