ARTISTS PRICING AND PROCEDURES
Portrait fees start @ $10,000.00 per person
All travel, lodging, framing and shipping expenses are in addition
to prices.
PROCEDURE
There are usually no more than two sittings of 1 1/2 to 2 hours for
each subject
At the first sitting photographs will be taken. Backgrounds may be
indoors or outdoors, and special requests will be honored.
The portrait will then be painted in Coni's Studio and a second sitting
will be required for the completion. It is requested that the same
attire worn a the first sitting be worn at the second sitting.
Completion time from the first sitting to the final sitting is 9 months
to a year.
TECHNIQUE
Using large fluid brush strokes with volumes of color creates a distinctive
style... .which
makes Adams' portraits easily recognizable to bring a portrait to
it's completion
Coni uses a wet on wet approach, sometimes using a palette knife and
at other times brushing thick pure paint over wet or drying areas.
FRAMING
It's been Coni's experience that many clients prefer that the artist
choose the frames for their portraits. Coni's frame supplier has developed
frames uniquely suited to Coni's painting style. Choice of moldings
is meant to accent the portrait while not distracting from the Subject.
If you choose to purchase a frame from the artist pricing can be requested.
All frames are manufactured here in the USA. A week or two before
Coni's return for the final sitting the frames are shipped to the
place of completion. It is requested that the box not be opened since
hardware and other materials may be misplaced.
At the final sitting, the likeness is reviewed and any final details
are added. The portrait is placed into the frame. It is requested
any changes be made at the time of completion.
Coni's sincerest wish is that all clients are fully satisfied. |
