  • Read below for selecting the right pictures.
  • Know what medium you want us to use (oil, watercolor, acyrlic, etc. excluding glassware).
  • The size of the 'painting or drawing' or the type of glassware item.

Selecting the Right Pictures

​Photos that are sent should be clear, large in size, and true to color.  Blurry, dark, or small pictures should not be sent.  It is better to send a few photos so that I can see the colors.  We can both decide what is the best picture to use for the painting.

Too small - a photo given to me that is too small is very hard to make out the details.     Same dog but this is a much better photo to work with.  


  






​The photo pixels should also be large enough for me to increase the size without destortion.

​Full Head and Body Photos - Photos with chopped off heads if painting a head portrait or chopped off body when do a full painting should not be submitted.  We can't paint what we don't see!








​Other photos that are hard to work with - The sun behind the subject will bleach out the edges and the face will be too dark.  Photos in a dark room will not show the colors correctly.  The pose of the animal should be looking at the camera.












Remember that the better the photo, the better the painting!
