Contact Chris by email at cdiduch@primus.ca to discuss your portrait and costs.

Following your discussion Chris will prepare a commission proposal outlining    requirements, proposed timeline, shipping details and fees. Generally, the artist will require a minimum of two-three weeks to complete a portrait following receipt of a deposit.

The proposal will include a proposed timeframe for the following activities:
a) Deadline for receipt of photos.
b) Date for emailing of initial photo of the general layout or preliminary drawing for approval.
c) Following approval – completion of the work, in style agreed upon.
d) Date for emailing photo of completed artwork and due date for balance of payment.
e) On receipt of payment, final artwork delivered in method agreed upon in proposal. (Insurance and shipping fees included in original estimate.)

If you agree to the proposal you will be asked to send a 50% deposit of the total cost of your portrait. Payments can be made the following ways:
• Certified cheque
• Canadian money order
• Pay Pal
• Interac Banking (Canada only)

To recreate your valued portrait Chris will need several photographs. A quality photo of the subject matter is needed along with several other photos that will be used for references. If you are within a 30-minute drive of Chris, she can take the photos of the subject herself and this requirement will have been noted in the Commission Proposal with a defined timeframe.
