I consider it a great honour to be trusted to make a beautiful personal art work. The work will be made on either a linen panel or streched canvas (depending the size and preference). I use the highest quality oil paints from brands such as Old Holland, Schmincke, Michael Harding and Winsor and Newton. Every painting is varnished with a high gloss varnish to protect your personal art work.
Examples of commissions I can do:
Single person portrait or multiple people
Portrait of a pet
A still life
A forest/wider scene (example below)
I work from reference photos only (in good resolution). I can edit or implement certain features of different photos together, however I advise not to combine or add elements from completely different photos together, this will be very unnatural. We will be discussing your more ideas and details after you have made a commission request.
Pricing
Pricing will depend on the subject and the size. Starting at 18×24 cm an indication will be around €200. Exact pricing will be informed after the commission request has been made.
Payment and Delivery
A deposit of 50% is required before I start on the painting. during the process we will maintain contact to ensure you are compeltey happy with your personal art work. Once finshed the remaining amount + shipping costs will be charged. A painting can take me around 5-6 weeks you will be kept updated on this. Once finished the painting will need to dry for at least 1/1,5 weeks to be varnished. Once completely dry the work will be shipped, this time will vary depending on its destination.
Send a email to info@liansmit.com with your photos, sizing and ideas. Thank you for trusting me to make a beautiful personal piece!
