Options and Pricing

* for prices on multiple (3 or more) animals/views or for full body portraits just shoot me an email and we can talk about what you want.

Placing an Order

    To place an order simply email me at LooseRingStudio@gmail.com with "PORTRAIT" in the subject line.
Please include the following in your email:
      - Your full name and mailing address
      - What type of portrait
              (graphite/pastel/watercolor) (size)
      - Attach reference photo(s) of your pet

    I do not require a deposit and you will be sent a proof image when your piece is complete (or near complete) for you to approve. If you are no longer able to purchase your finished portrait I ask for a 25% fee and reserve the right to place it for sale to the public.

    There is an approximate 2 week process time on portraits so if you have a deadline (birthday, holiday etc) please keep that in mind when ordering. Expedited services may be available.

Payment Methods

I accept personal checks and paypal.

What I Need From You

For a true to life portrait I need at least one clear, well lit photo of your pet's head. I can combine parts of several photos if necessary. Often a few photos are best to accurately show markings and personality. It is OK if the picture has tack on the horse even for bare head portraits, I can easily 'remove' it. Tack will be removed unless you state you want it. Tack beyond a simple halter or bridle will have an additional $5 charge.

*note on reference pictures: if it is a picture from a professional
photographer I need a note/email releasing its use.
