Some of you folks have asked to see photos of the people that you see here as Caricatures. This is usually difficult because I receive many photos in many forms of dress & expression from which I create the design that my client has requested. However, here I have taken a favorite photo of my dear Husband ...& added stacks of books & an item or 2 to show a few of his many & varied interests!
This should show you all another way of creating a design sure to become a treasured family heirloom.
How To Order
- To begin the process, please contact me by phone, email, or snail mail. I will need at least two photos (full face and profile). I strongly suggest costume photos as well!
- I will then confirm your choices with revisions if any of your suggestions would prove problematic and provide price and approx. ship date.
- I'll then email you a Payment Link, providing the info you need from me. Secure and Easy! You may mail me a check or money order, just let me know if that is your preference.
- As soon as I receive confirmation of your Payment, you will have earned a coveted place in the Request Queue!
Pricing
- People Portraits start at $350 (Flat Shipping Fee $12) and includes a clay Name/Title Plaque ~ The wording is up to you! (see "Hall of Personalized Plaques" for inspiration.
- Your cost will depend largely on the complexity of your design.
- Your place is the Request and the length of your "wait time" will vary widely depending on on the time of year, my Fine Art Show schedule, and other life factors. Remember, I work alone ~ no employees or minions! All is created by my hand, so patience is an essential ingredient to our Magical Collaborative Process.
