Portrait Pricing & Options

What Affects the Cost?

Every portrait is created specifically for you, so pricing varies depending on the size of the artwork and the number of subjects included. The base price covers one subject on the selected canvas size. Additional people or pets require extra time and detail, so the price increases accordingly.

If your portrait includes one additional subject, the cost increases by 50%. For portraits with three or more subjects, each additional person or pet is added at 30% of the base price. This pricing structure allows you to create anything from a single portrait to a large family or group composition while ensuring each subject receives the attention and detail it deserves.

Available Sizes

Portraits are available in a variety of sizes to suit your space and the number of subjects you would like included. The most popular sizes are 11 × 17 inches and 16 × 20 inches, which work beautifully for single subjects and many two-subject portraits.

Larger commissions are also available up to 30 × 40 inches. The recommended canvas size depends on the number of people or pets in the portrait and the level of detail desired. Pricing is based on the canvas size for one subject, with additional subjects increasing the total price by 30–50%, depending on the composition.

Payment Options

For your convenience, I accept payment through Venmo, Cash App, and Zelle.

Deposits

A 50% deposit is required before work begins to reserve your commission and begin the painting process. The remaining 50% balance is due upon completion, prior to delivery or shipment.
