A portrait is a unique gift to give to someone who is special to you. The way light and or colour interacts with a person's features is a beautiful way of defining their character and inner state.
I've painted and drawn for 50 years initially using traditional media (watercolour, oils, gauche, pen and ink, pencil) and now both traditionally and digitally. I use a combination of traditional and digital art techniques to produce a custom piece of art that is offered in a Fine Art Giclee print using Hahnemuhle or Canson paper.
A traditional portrait fused with an energetically bold colour combination to create a vibrant mixed media style portrait. The colours can be chosen to suit individual taste but the way they interact with the portrait does have a random, unplanned, quality. Though this example is face front as a technique it works better in profile with the colours emerging from the hair/back of head.
You can have any text added if you wish.
I use fine art printing services to ensure your portrait will be printed to the highest standard. A Giclée print is a high quality archival inkjet print. The word Giclée (pronounced ‘Jee-Klay' with a soft J), comes from the French verb gicler meaning "to squirt, spurt, or spray". The printers I use utilise the latest best-in-class Epson Sure Color P9000 printers, capable of producing print resolutions up to1440 by 2880 DPI and the best-in-class art papers from the world's top producers, including Hahnemühle, and Canson. The end result is a vibrant, fade resistant, archival quality image.Your portrait can come in an edge to edge style or with a border.
HOW TO PLACE YOUR ORDER
1.Choose the style, size and finish that you would like for your portrait.
2. ADD TO CART & PLACE YOUR ORDER
3. Send me the photo you wish to use via the Etsy Chat Messenger (simply attach photo), or the ‘We Transfer' service. We can then discuss the particular requirements that you may have for your selling work. Please send the largest and best quality version of your photo to guarantee the best quality of the finished piece.I can enhance/resize small and low-resolution images but a low pixels per inch image may not allow enough detail to produce the highest quality work. If you are unsure please feel free to send me the photo before placing the order and I'll discuss the options with you.
4. I'll arrange to have a first draft of your work for you to review within 48 hours and together we can fine tune it to fully meet your requirements. Once you are happy with the work I'll send it to the printers who usually take around 3 business days to print the work after which it will ship and you can expect your new piece delivered within 3 days if within the UK and 5-7 days for international orders, allowing time for possible custom delays.
I will supply you with the digital file of your artwork free with your order.
Please note the Giclee prints come to you unframed.
