The animals we share our life with are more than just creatures that we own. They are treasured members of our families.
I would be honored and happy to create a unique one-of-a-kind Fiona Purdy portrait of your beloved horse or pet.
Prices start from as little as $300.
"Fiona Purdy represents so many things about art and is an example of a truly passionate artist. I have had the pleasure of her acquaintance for many years and always have admired her attention to detail with respect to numerous projects in multiple mediums. Over the years Fiona has created several works for me personally, and I have been extremely pleased with the results. When she tackles a project for an individual, getting acquainted with the subject at hand is first and foremost in her book. Fiona is an animal enthusiast and approaches her work from that venue. In order to capture any animal’s true personality, one must take time to befriend the creature. Fiona does just this. Thank you Fiona for following your passion and creating such memorable works of art of our best friends." - Mia Martori, Phoenix, AZ
So you think you might like a portrait painted of your special animal? Wonderful!! But you're thinking "Hmmm.. so just how do I go about doing that?"
IT'S SO EASY!!!!!!!!!
Basically, here's how it works:
1. You send me photos (the best you have) - or - I can visit and take photos of your animal.
2. We discuss what type of portrait you want, such as; style, size, color etc. I'll also talk to you a little about your animal so I can get a feel for his/her personality.
3. I email you a jpeg of a rough pencil sketch of the portrait.
4. You approve sketch. If you want changes, we discuss, I revise the sketch and email you another jpeg. This will go on until you are happy.
5. When you give the go-ahead, you send me a 50% down payment to start.
6. I paint a work of fine art featuring your beautiful animal.
7. I email you a jpeg of the final painting.
8. You approve, send me the balance of the payment and shipping costs.
9. I send you the portrait.
10. You open the package, gasp with delight, and with a big smile on your face, you hang the portrait in a prominent spot, where it gives you joy every time you see it.
See - I told you it was easy!!!! But wait, it gets better!
If you purchase a 16"x 20" portrait or larger I will include, at no extra charge, your choice of one of the following:
* 10 - 5”x 7” prints of the portrait
-or-
* 30 – 5 1/2” x 7 3/8” note cards printed with the portrait (and with envelopes of course!)
This is a $ 100 value - Free!
When you commission a portrait from me, you will get something that will stand alone as a work of fine art, but you also get a piece of my career, a piece of me and my reputation.
WELL, if you've read this far you must be even more interested in having me immortalize that special animal of yours in an exceptional, Fiona Purdy original portrait.
Please contact me and we'll discuss everything in full. Sounds good? It does to me too!! My contact information is at the bottom of this screen. Send me an email or better yet - give me a call!
I can't wait to get started creating a unique piece of fine art featuring your most loved animal. Talk to you soon!
Cheers,
Fiona
