I’d like to commission a realistic, full-colour portrait of my father and me embracing each other. We never posed for a photo in that moment, and unfortunately I do not have any individual photographs of either of us, so the likeness will need to be built entirely from your artistic interpretation after I describe our features, build, clothing, and the feeling I want the scene to convey. Preferred painting size: either A4 or A3. Because I plan to keep this piece for life, I’d appreciate your advice on the most durable medium—oil on canvas, archival-quality watercolours, light-fast coloured pencils, or a digital painting prepared for giclée printing. Please outline the pros and cons of each so I can choose before we begin. Deliverables • A preliminary pencil or digital sketch for my approval • Final, high-resolution artwork ready for professional paintng. • Care and preservation instructions specific to the medium we agree on Once we agree on the medium and layout, I will send you pictures that might help capture expression and posture. I’m happy to schedule a call.

As an accomplished graphic artist with a strong focus on design and aesthetic, I'm uniquely positioned to bring your sentimental father-son portrait to life. Although painting isn't one of the services listed in my portfolio, it has been a long-standing passion of mine since childhood and something I've continued to pursue alongside my career as a designer. This duality provides me with a unique perspective that is often reflected in my work, and I believe this project to be a perfect opportunity to showcase that. I feel confident in my ability to translate your vivid description into a tangible artistic representation. My design experience has trained me in interpreting clients' ideas and turning them into cohesive visuals, which translates well to creating unique artworks. In terms of selecting the right medium, I'd comfortably guide you through the pros and cons of each option, allowing you to make the most informed choice catered specifically to your needs and expectations.
