CLASSICAL PORTRAITSI strive to capture the hidden essence, personality and mood of all my subjects in all of my portraits, making them unique and atypical. I also help people honor and immortalize their loved ones with a work of art that will last for centuries.

TO ORDER A PORTRAIT:
Please fill out the contact form on my ABOUT GALANES page. I would first schedule an appointment to meet the subject in person and work on some preliminary sketches. If an appointment cannot be made due to distance, you may send me several reference pictures, until we can agree on size and the best image for the painting. A 50% installment by check, cash, Paypal, Venmo or bank transfer is required for all works. Balance and cost of delivery is due upon completion of artwork, in which I will email images of the completed work before shipping. |
