I have always drawn & painted.

METHOD OF WORKING<\/h5>\n

Time with the sitter is invaluable and is reflected in the quality of the finished work, but I can work from photographs alone if sittings are impossible or impractical.
\nSittings can be in my studio in Montgomeryshire, or I can travel.
\nQuantity of sittings varies according to individual circumstances (how easily a likeness comes; complexity of composition; vagaries of light and location) and availability of the sitter.
\nI usually ask for a minimum of 5 sittings for a head and 12-16 sittings for a half\/three-quarter length portrait.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_accordion_tab][vc_accordion_tab title=”NOTABLE SITTERS”][vc_row_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text]Every person I work with is of note to me: It is important to me that I work with the same care and effort regardless of the “notability” of the sitter to others.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text][\/vc_column_text][\/vc_accordion_tab][vc_accordion_tab title=”Commission a portrait by Keith Breeden RP”][vc_column_text]
