On this page I've tried to give you as much information as possible with regards to commissioning your own unique piece of art. I use two mediums, oil paints and pastels, both of which have their own qualities and both can produce beautiful paintings.
First the all important question "how much?". I've set out the price list opposite as a guide so you are better prepared to make that decision on size, oils or pastel etc. These are the most popular sizes, others are available. We can discuss whether you would like me to mount and frame the piece which I'm also happy to do.
When you are ready, please get in contact using the Contact button on the left or email me : phil@philreedart.com
I'm then going to need some good quality photos of the subject to work from. Use natural light and get down to eye level are two good tips, if you live local to Chichester I can come and take some photos as part of the process but the painting really does depend on getting good quality photos to begin with.
Once we have finalised the details of the painting I can then give you a final price which, if you are happy to proceed, I will request 25% of as a non-refundable deposit to get the ball rolling.
The painting will take around 6-8 weeks for oils and 2-3 weeks for pastels so please bear that in mind and let me know if you have a deadline you would like me to work to and I will try to make that if at all possible.
When the painting is complete I will be in touch, some clients like to see a photo before receiving the painting to make sure they are happy with it, some like the surprise of unwrapping it. Either way small changes can always be made to ensure you are 100% happy with the painting. Only then will I ask for final payment and when that's cleared we can arrange delivery on a day to suit you or if you are in the Chichester area I can drop off or you can pick up whichever is easier.
