Graphite Pencil Drawing
1. Procedure
Send us an e-mail with your inquiries and photographs together with specifications of your preferences such as graphite pencil or charcoal and desired backgrounds.
After the details and prices have been discussed and agreed upon, we will immediately present you with a rough sketch to show how the portrait's composition will look like. Upon your approval, at least a 50% deposit shall be remitted before work on the portrait commences.
To ensure that the portrait is up to your expectations, at least 2 progress updates will be presented by e-mail or on a private page in www.ArtisticRealism.com. Upon completion, the work will likewise be presented for your final approval prior to shipment.
If you wish to receive your portrait at a specific time, please place your order well in advance. Completion of work depends on the size of the portrait, complexity, and the artist's workload at the time.
2. Choosing Your Photographs
Practically almost any picture can be worked from. However, submission of a clear and detailed photograph will produce better results. We prefer working from an actual photograph. If that will be an inconvenience on your part, e-mail us your photographs at a minimum resolution of 300dpi (dots per inch).
If commissioning for a multi-subject portrait, we are also able to work from separate photographs of the subjects and compose them into one portrait.
You may send us your photographs by e-mail or the image file box of our e-mail form.
3. Modes of Payment and Shipment
Payments may be sent by registered airmail in the form of Personal Checks, Bank Drafts, or Money Orders. Please note that portraits will only be shipped after cleared funds are confirmed.
Your portrait will be shipped flat (not in tubes) by airmail or courier, depending on your choice. Shipping and handling charges will be quoted accordingly.
