The process begins with your photos. If you have digital
images you can email them to
anne@annesteinman.com.
If not you can send them by traditional mail. It would
be helpful to include a few good close-up photos of your subject/s
taken from different angles. I will select one to draw from and use
others as reference for unique features. The clearer the image, the
less guesswork I'll have to do, and you’ll have a much finer portrait. For best
results take photos at same level as your subject and
click on this link for additional pet photo
taking tips. Your photos will be returned to you with your
portrait.
Next, I would like to find out what your preferences are.
We will go over your options, such as your choice of medium,
(acrylic, watercolor, pastel, pen and ink, colored pencils,
graphite pencil, mixed-media) size
of portrait, color, and background
preference. For pet portraits, it's helpful to let me
know the specific breed, special markings, favorite activities, and
any pertinent information that would make it easier for me to
capture the animal's unique personality.
In order to begin work on you portrait
painting or drawing, I ask for
a 50% deposit. Acceptable
methods of payment include check, money order, or PayPal.
PayPal accepts credit cards and bank transfers and you don't need to
have a PayPal account to make a payment with PayPal.
Before sending you your
completed portrait, I will email you a digital image proof.
Balance is due
upon completion
of the portrait.
