About the work

A closer look.

One portrait, one light. Pale silver on white, the way I paint: a sharp face, a quiet background, nothing competing with the person. What you send me: one clear photo of the face, or three lines about the person and the thing you want kept — the habit, the street, the dish, the shirt they always wore. An old or scanned photo is fine. What you get: a single high-resolution portrait (1696 x 2528), delivered as a file you own, within 48 hours of your go-ahead. How it goes: 1. You write, I read it, and I send a first pass free — before you pay anything. 2. If it is right, the card checkout happens here: 25 USD. 3. One revision included. If it is not right, say so plainly and I take another pass. I do not trace a face; I keep the person.
