Pastel Portraits

Pastel Portrait Options

updated 2016, prices in USD

Please start by sending photos to mariawaye@gmail.com I would be happy to hear your ideas; together we can find out which option suits you best. I will reply with feedback and a time estimate based on your photos.

Your painting size depends on how much of the body is included, how many people and what kind of background. Smaller paintings work best for zoomed in, up close and intimate portraits. Larger paintings work best for showing more body, people and background space.

Upgrades such as significant changes, combining photos, complex clothing and special props, etc. are props etc. Are available for an additional fee.

Please contact me for your custom quote.
