How to give a portrait:
The ultimate personal gift.
‘Seeing a likeness of somebody you love so much, created for you, you have that to cherish…I love it!’
A portrait is a gift of love with legacy. A perfect gift for a very special occasion. We have decades of experience in making this not only possible, but easy and enjoyable.
There are three ways to give someone a portrait.
1 Use our Commissions Service to help you
Our consultant works with you to create an enjoyable experience as well as well as a lovely portrait at the end of it. The experience is very much part of the gift.
2 Use a Portrait Gift Voucher
If you would like to organise a gift voucher you just contact us to tell us what you would like.
We will then make out the voucher with an appropriate image and message, put it in a presentation box and send it to the recipient for you.
This works particularly well if it is to be a surprise gift.
3 Give a completed portrait as a surprise gift
We have worked with families to arrange secret sittings so the portrait gift can be given as a surprise present
We have also facilitated portraits which are based on photographs.
