Details of $2,000 Certificate & The Work We Create

Our artwork and process is quite different from what most people imagine.

This certificate completely covers commission costs associated with an 11x14" Imperial Portrait with full artistry. The session fees are also waived for both sessions. There is an hour-long creation session in the camera room. Their creation session is treated as a full session and there is no limit to who can be included. When the artists' selections are prepared, they return to the studio for an hour-long projection session. The projection session is where clients view their portraits and collaborate with the artist on the elements of finishes, artistry, and how to make their portraits remarkable.

The photography work created by the studio is carefully executed so that it can be translated into our two flagship finishes. We create two different finishes: Imperial and Florentine. The Imperial is the more realistic finishing style.

It combines the reality of photography with watercolor and acrylic media. The Imperial has been our most popular finishing style for decades because of its detail and nuance in combining media. The end result varies and is tailored to each client's needs but it is always a stunning addition. The Florentine finish is the most whimsical and the finish that is furthest from reality. It involves oil, and acrylic media and is painted by reference of fine art photographs created by the studio. Both portrait finishes are archivally mounted so that they are solid pieces and better suited against damage. Each portrait is then coated with a protective lacquer for protection.

This certificate offering is a great way for the lucky winner to create their portrait of a lifetime. All of our portraits are handmade. Every piece made at the studio is custom, and includes full artistry. This means that customizations are included; it is a collaborative process. The certificate includes one 11x14" Imperial portrait, gives them a full session with variety, as well as a regular projection session for viewing and customizations. Their certificate holds the full $2000 value with the studio if they would like to use it towards different finishes, other sizes, collections or package options. Their ability to use the value towards other sizes is completely up to them and depends on what results from their session. Beyond their certificate, there are many different price points that depend on sizes and finishes.
