Selecting a medium
Commissions are offered in three different art media - oil, pastel, and charcoal. Read on below to see which one is right for you.
-
Oil Portrait
Learn moreOil on canvas is the classic medium for high-quality portraits that last over time. The medium wears well, and is ideal for pieces that will become cherished family heirlooms. Oil paint offers great depth and richness of color, and can be mixed and layered in ways that cannot be replicated in any other medium. Because oil paint needs time to cure, it extends the time needed for completion.
-
Pastel Portrait
Learn moreA masterfully drawn color portrait with no drying time required. Pastels allow for a lifelike level of detail, and give the piece a velvety, matte quality. Pastel artwork is more prone to fading than oil, so it must be framed and kept behind glass to better preserve the color over time.
-
Charcoal Portrait
Learn moreA stylish black-and-white portrait for a fraction of the price. These high-contrast pieces are a great choice for any space. Since chacoal portraits require no drying time, and work with values of light and dark rather than color, this greatly speeds up the completion process.
