Can't see this page being used much, but I'm told - by cleverer people than me - that it should be here...So, for what it's worth, here it is...
SALES: If I still have it, all my work is for sale!
COMMISSIONS:You can commission me to do several things (I hear a suggestion coming up that I will totally ignore!) You can either...
1: Choose a canvas from the galleries and I will reproduce it for you.
2: Choose a scene of your own, and maybe send me a photograph. Or...
3: Simply ask me to paint a picture for you. All these suggestions assume that you are currently suffering an attack of the head-staggers and have temporarily lost your ability to think straight.
In case you can't quite visualise the various canvas sizes
involved, use the links below to see what they look like in relation to myself...
Not the most popular size, but good for effect. You can have several of these on your wall and not appear cluttered or overwhelmed
This is generally considered to be a "normal" size for a painting. Since a lot of my work is sold here in Cornwall, and people come to Cornwall on holiday, they might see a problem in carrying a larger canvas back home with them. (And nothing wrong with that!)
And yet this size seems to be the most popular! From a painter's point of view, this is just as well; because it can take as long to complete a small canvas as it does a large one. So a pro-rata price (brush-stroke for brush-stroke) appears vastly unfair. Right?
Delivery time? Not easy, this, since an oil canvas requires some
4/5 days to dry enough to be shipped...Rule of thumb? Say 2 weeks from instruction to delivery. I use several shipping companies and have never experienced problems of any kind on that score.
Cost? Well, this is dependant upon size, subject matter and complexity. (It's not an exact science)
Commissioned work adds about 40% to an off-the-shelf picture. Smaller size
canvasses are not priced pro-rata...but close enough.
But why am I bothering? - who's reading this, anyway!
