If you would like to chat with Allie about creating your own bespoke painting, please to get in touch using the contact page.
Here are some things you might like to think about before getting in touch:
Subject Matter: Allie can capture any subject matter; your favourite pet, family members, your home, business, town, village, church or school, or favourite holiday scene, your garden or happiest memory. Give some thought to what you would like included in the painting, and what the focus of the piece needs to be for you.
Timings: Ideally Allie will need a few weeks to complete a commission but please be clear about a deadline if the painting is for a special event, and she will try to accommodate.
Size and shape: Consider where the painting will hang (if you know). How large is the space, would a square or rectangular painting fit well? And would a mounted and framed piece suit the décor better than a canvas or wooden panel? Framing can be arranged for paintings on paper, canvas and wooden panels so the choice really is a matter of personal preference.
Who is the painting for? Consider your / the recipient’s style and preferences; is a bold and modern style more appropriate, or representational/traditional, or is there a favourite colour for a background for example? View Allie’s work across the website to take influence and direction if helpful.
The process:
- Chat to agree subject matter, size, style, framing options, price, deposit (the deposit will cover all materials including frame if required) timings etc.
- Allie works from photographs and/or sketches. If there are clear and well-lit photographs available they may suffice, otherwise Allie will need to take photos or make sketches.
- Allie will the composition to you to ensure you are happy with the layout and proportions of the painting.
- Update photos will be sent as the painting progresses.
- Upon completion Allie will arrange for the painting to be framed, packaged and shipped and final payment will be requested.
