Please expect to allow 2-3 weeks for completion of your portrait and up to 2 months during the busy Christmas period. If this is not possible, I will do my best to accommodate your order but please note that orders are placed on a first come first served basis, on receipt of the deposit and suitable photographs, so it is advisable to book and put down your deposit early to avoid disappointment.
Gift vouchers are available for those who leave thing's to the last minute. These are redeemable once a photo has been sent and a reasonable deadline time has been agreed.
If you intend to get the portrait framed, I would recommend allowing another couple of weeks minimum but this will depend upon the framer you use. I can recommend a style and a framer local to me.
I always recommend using the services of a professional framer to present the artwork in it best light. I understand not everybody has the same budgets. Please ask and I can help further with this ,its always best and help preserve your artwork for many years to come, using a conservation mount board and glass.
