All
portraits (except miniatures) are retouched, cropped, and custom-printed as
needed. Finished portraits are flush-mounted on a rigid surface and signed
by the artist. |
|
|
|
Basic
facial and skin retouching is included. Corrective digital modifications to
whiten, straighten, or fill-in missing teeth, to remove braces, to remove
stray hairs, and glasses glare, to open eyes, and switch heads (expressions)
are at an additional cost. See image modifications price schedule. |

Here's an explanation of what the various finished are: |
- Canvas - This is one of the most elegant finishes I offer, and is also
one of the most popular. At least half of my clients select this
finish. First, the image is printed on paper; then the emulsion layer
(that contains the actual photograph) is separated from the paper and
is placed on an actual canvas. With heat and pressure the emulsion
layer is then permanently bonded to the canvas, and the resulting
portrait has all of the characteristics of the canvas surface with all
the clarity of a photograph.
|
- Classic - This is a portrait printed on paper but texturing is
applied to the paper to give it various effects. My two most popular
classic finishes are:
|
 | The
"Brushstroke" finish, that looks like an actual painting with
brushstrokes clearly visible, but has all the clarity of a
photograph. This would never be mistaken for an actual painting but
it is a very pleasing effect. |
|
 | The "Linen"
finish that looks like the photograph was printed on an actual piece
of linen. My clients have always selected this finish as a
compromise because it comes the closest to looking like the canvas
finish without the additional investment of canvas. |
|
- Paper - This is a semi-matte surface that is very flattering for
portraits. It is definitely not the glossy kind of 4x6 prints
you get from the one-hour photo finishers.
|
-
Impressionist Watercolor
- This is a portrait that has been enhanced to look like it is an
Impressionist painting. The work is done with Photoshop and other
programs to add the image characteristics of an impressionist artist.
The image is then printed on fine art watercolor paper. This is an
amazing transformation of the image without distorting expressions.
It's amazing!
|
- Masterwork
Giclee - This is a print
made with a high quality commercial ink-jet printer on watercolor
paper. It is the finest and most artistic mechanically produced
finish I offer.
|
- Hand
Painted Oil - This starts
out as a print but is transformed by an actual human artist who paints
over the print and produces a real oil painting of your portrait. The
final price will vary depending on the number of people in the
portrait.
|
|
Usually, most images will look great with any of these options.
However, occasionally a particular finish will jump out as the best one
for a special image. This has to be judged on a case-by-case basis. |

I
hope these explanations help. As with anything, it helps to actually
see examples of each finish to get the best understanding of what they
look like. Please call me with any questions you may have - I'm always
available to help you with your decisions. |
