HOW TO ORDER  

PET PORTRAITS, SEASCAPES  &  LANDSCAPES     

My fine art commissions are recreated with love & care to replicate your pet exactly.

🔷OIL PAINTINGS (Windsor & Newton Professionals Oil) on Linen in the “realism” style of the “Old Masters”, painted in glazes for luminosity. Linen canvas is the finest available.

🔷COLORED PENCIL: Faber Castell Professional Pencils on Crescent board. 

Step 1.

Choose Oil or Colored Pencil. 🔷Send me an email to b.sailer77 AT gmail.com

🔷 Please indicate the “general” size you have in mind (see the list below).

🔷Choose from options: Face Portrait | Face & Shoulders | Full Body

🔷BACKGROUNDS: Oil Paintings will be a color gradient to compliment your pet. Colored Pencil: White – the natural color of the board.

Complicated Backgrounds: A scene, plants, etc. Add 15-30% - I will quote for you.

🔷TIMELINE: 4-6 weeks for completion on Oil Paintings, & longer for large art.

Oil Paintings require a drying period of a minimum of 2-3 weeks (after completion) so that I can VARNISH your Portrait – protecting it from the elements for hundreds of years.

🔷Colored Pencil; generally, less time – based on size, etc.

Step 2.

📧 Email a few photo selections. Suitable photos are: 🔶High Resolution/High definition to eyes & face.  🔶Closeup 🔶Eyelevel 🔶Natural clear light

🔴Remember: The eyes are the window to your pet’s soul.

Step 3.

Book your special Portrait with a 50% deposit through PayPal (Friends & Family). I can also

request from you via Pay Pal -if it helps.  Once I receive payment, I’ll email you an invoice detailing everything – for the full agreement.

🔷GIFT CERTIFICATES: Gift a special person. Purchase for a specific size/amount.  The amount

can be secret – if you wish. I’ll mail you the certificate.

🌈❤️Memorial Gift Certificates are a lovely way to honor special pets – over the rainbow bridge.

Step 4.

I send you (beginning stage) images when your Portrait begins. Continuous photo updates are posted to Instagram/Facebook with your permission only. 🔶Surprise gifts are not.

Step 5.

OIL PORTRAITS: Very carefully packaged to prevent damage. OIL ESPECIALLY – requires much time/materials to ensure paintings don’t move + the FACE does not touch anything in the box.

🔷Shipping costs: Small 6” x 6” Oil Paintings $13.  Medium up to 16” $30.  Larger – I quote you the EXACT cost from USPS (with zero charges for my packing materials).

🔷USPS Priority Mail with TRACKING NUMBER – 3 days average to US locals. 🔷Colored Pencil: Ship flat/in non-bendable packaging.  The average is $9. - $13. Will quote.

🌎INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING: Will quote the cost of shipping- NO charge ever – for packing materials.

🔶You always receive a photo of the parcel going out to you.
