Procedure and Fees for Animal Portrait Commissions

Animal Gallery : Artist's Home Page



Animals are wonderful subjects for portraits. They are fun, less challenging than humans, so I charge considerably less. If you are serious about commissioning a picture . We will discuss your requirements and agree a price.

You pay a deposit of 33% and send several good photos, which gets you on my waiting list.

If you like the picture I paint, you buy it by sending the balance of payment. If you do not like it you are under no obligation to complete the sale.

I will always try to work to a specific time requirement such as a birthday, if requested, but generally allow at least 4 weeks from the time I get your photos, for an oil painting, less for a watercolour or sketch.
