“All I need are your own photos to work from. I work closely with you using the photos you supply, together with your insights into the subject’s personality and character. Your portrait painting is created using oil paint on canvas, with traditional fine art techniques, in a classical and photorealistic portrait style. As a figurative painter who is also a working illustrator, I have a lot of experience rendering likenesses.”
