COMMISSIONS
How to Commission
Are you looking to treat yourself or a special friend to something they will treasure forever?
You are in the perfect place!
​
I can create the perfect portrait of your beloved animals, friends & family. Below you will find my commissioning process. Here you can see what to expect from me with your bespoke art, and what I will need from you.
​
My books fill up quickly, some of these are for Birthdays and Christmas but if my books close for the current year I will gladly talk to you about your commission and give you the next available date. I’ll talk you through the commission process and help you decide on the best reference photo before booking.
​
I only use professional artist materials, so I can assure you your portrait will last a lifetime.
PHOTOS
The better the reference photograph the more detailed your portrait can be!
Hopefully you have a photo in mind that you would like to use? Most people tend to want to use their favourite photos; it's a good idea to have multiple photos to ensure I get the best likeness. Here is a little guide to choosing a good photo.
PICK YOUR PORTRAIT SIZE
Its a good idea to measure your wall space before you choose!
Measure up before you decide what size portrait you would like. Make sure you leave enough space for your frame! Take a look at my Price List where you'll find all the portrait sizes, the frame size required to take your portrait, mount and backboard. Please note Frames are not included in the Price. For more information on framing click here. If you are looking for a bespoke portrait or frame size please call me on 07985164540 or email me at Kerry@portraitsbykerry.co.uk and I will be happy to assist you.
CONFIRM YOUR BOOKING
Secure your Commission
To secure your portrait I require a non refundable £30 deposit and the balance is due upon completion. Payment can be made via Bank Transfer or Cash if you are collecting.
​
If you wish to make a booking please call me on 07985164540 or alternatively you can email me at Kerry@portraitsbykerry.co.uk with your contact details and I will get in touch with you.
WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?
Lets Talk!
We will discuss your photos and pick the one(s) you like. I then create a digital mock up of your commission or multiple mock ups for you to choose from. I do this to ensure you are happy with the size and positioning of your subject(s).
​
Once I start your commission you will be informed and will receive regular updates throughout the process. Once your commission is ready and you are happy, the balance is due and shipping if required. On receipt your commission will be carefully packaged and ready to collect or to be shipped out. You'll find more information on shipping in my prices.
