Another holiday is approaching… If you are looking for something special to give this Easter, a portrait created by traditional medium might be that perfect gift.

I offer several options of medium choice. If you are looking for simplicity and decor, maybe a portrait in black and white created in graphite pencil or pen and ink would be an option. Looking for a way to portray a colorful character… a portrait created in colored pencil or pastel would be your choice.

Look forward to hearing from you.

COMMISSION VALENTINE’S DAY ITALIAN GREYHOUND DOG PORTRAITS FOR CHARITY

Happy Valentine’s Day…

For the month of February, in honor of Valentine’s Day, I will be offering realistic portraits of your Italian Greyhound at the reduced price of $175.00.  All portraits will be created in graphite pencil on 11″ X 15″, 140lb art paper. For a limited time, I have taken $50.00 off the original price of these portraits and will also contribute $25.00 of each portrait sale to the Italian Greyhound Rescue. (Please note that sales tax and shipping charges will be applied to the balance.) 

This offer is in honor of the meaning behind Valentine’s Day. This day has slowly evolved into an act of selflessness representing the true expression of one’s love for another. What better way to describe your dog’s unconditional love… What better way to help another dog to a better life by part of the proceeds being donated to Italian Greyhound Rescue…

In significance of Valentine’s Day falling on February 14th, I am accepting the first 14 portrait submissions at this price and for this charity. Please note that only one subject will be accepted per portrait. Due to the amount of time it takes to complete a single portrait, commissions will be completed in the order they are received which will exceed the date of Valentine’s Day and follow through into the next couple of months for completion of all portrait submissions… (Only orders placed on or before February 28, 2009 will apply at the discounted rate and for the rescue donation.)

If interested, please visit Prices & Commissions on my official website to follow through with your submission. The detail and quality of the artwork is largely dependent upon the quality of the photographs sent, so please be sure to view the photography tips before submitting your photographs.

Please read and accept the terms required for this portrait service. Once your photograph is submitted, I will contact you via email to ensure the photograph is acceptable to work with and to invoice you for the service of portraiture.

Throughout the portrait process, I will keep you updated on the progress of your portrait…

My Best,
