The Process
Pet and horse portrait commissions are drawn from or based on photos. Depending on the distance, I can visit to take photos.
If the distance is too far, I can either use photos supplied by yourself. Or we can come to some agreement about travel costs.
My drawings are produced on Artist Quality paper.
The best photos are taken outside in natural daylight (not too bright or too dull), and no use of camera flash.
For instance, to get a sheen on a horses coat. The best times of the day are when the sun is on the horizon, so early morning or late afternoon.
I prefer to work from digital photos, the higher the pixels (resolution), the better.
One of the photos should be of the pose you want in the drawing.
The more photos you can supply, the better.
I will request extra photos if I do not feel that I can use the ones supplied to produce the portrait.
