SERIOUS ART

Here are some samples of the many different types of portraits done over the last few years. They vary between creative caricatures, newspaper cartoons, and commission work.
Caricatures at Functions	Having a party or special occasion? Want some light entertainment? Invite a cartoonist! I can provide high-quality caricatures of your guests while they enjoy themselves. (See credentials for previous clients.) Fee varies according to distance travelled and hours needed, contact me for details.
Pencil Portraits	I've been drawing pencil portraits since 1974, usually from life rather than photographs.
Linear Portraits	Portraits done with line are ideal for the more budget conscious. Note that good photographs are required. The finished artwork is A3 in size and costs $154 (including GST.) Framing is up to the client, though I can organise it if needed. The standard fee is $100, which is basically my costs plus GST.
Ink and Wash Portraits	Most people prefer this style of portrait, done on high-quality A3 Watercolour paper using a classical ink and wash technique. Fee: $264 (including GST)
Colour Portraits	These images are done with either watercolours or professional acrylic paint. Images vary from extreme caricature to direct realism, depending on the client's preferences. Note: these require good colour photographs of the subject. Fee: watercolour $374 (including GST)
