Step 1: Let’s Talk!
The first step is to discuss with the client the expectations, desires and the composition of the piece.
Step 2: Photo Shoot!
Lesley works from high resolution photographs either provided by the client or if the client is local, she can take the photos herself. Usually, it requires many photos to provide the best selection. Close ups and several different poses are required. Lighting is important too.
A 50% deposit is required at the beginning of the process with the remaining balance due at completion. Prices vary depending upon the size and composition of the painting.
Step 3: Delivery
Lesley can hand deliver to local clients or meet them at a preferred framing shop to discuss framing options. Framing is not included in the commission fee. Shipping is available to out-of-town clients.
