I would like to have a portrait painted of my son. It just so happens that an art gallery near me is featuring a commissioned artist in the next few months. I do like his work, some things much more than others. It's not your typical oil on canvas formal stuff...it's a little more funky, impressionistic...
My son is will be 2.75 when the artist is here. I had always thought I would wait until DS was 5, but this seems like a good opportunity.
I'm just wondering how much is reasonable to pay? How your experience went? How old was your child? Was it done from a picture or did you sit for it? Any general tips or thoughts?
thanks.
