Please note that prices are for single
portraits
with plain backgrounds. Double and group portraits, complicated backgrounds
or larger portraits are individually priced. Prices do not include
framing, though David is happy to arrange framing at extra cost. Prices
include travel within a 30 mile radius of Wolverhampton, West Midlands.
Commissions further afield are individually priced.
Commissioned Portraits
David prefers to paint from life, but will paint
from photographs where necessary (eg. children and animals). When
painting from life , a head and shoulders portrait will normally take
2-4 sessions, each of 2 hours duration (with rest breaks). Sittings
can take place either in David’s studio or at the sitter’s
home.
Demonstrations and Workshops
David is available for portrait demonstrations.
He will paint a 20” x 16” portrait of head and shoulders
in oil in a two hour session (longer if required) whilst fully describing
his methods and procedures, illustrated with examples and anecdotes.
He also teaches full or half day workshops. Price on application.
