Horse Portrait Painting Information

Helen contacted me in 2009 to ask if I would be able to draw her Friesian Mare at 12 x 10 which is a great size for a horse portrait in pencil. Helen sent me her faovruite photo that she wanted me to work from and you can see this in its entirity, along with a close up at the bottom of the page. Helen sent me some lovely emails during the process and I have added one below as a testimonial. I hope you enjoy this page of information and if you would like to commission me to draw your horse don't hesitate to email at any time.

The Pencil Drawing with Detail

We scan the majority of our artwork here in the studio, we have an epson scanner, or for the very large drawings we take photographs of the artwork using a Sony DSLR camera, a tripod and two diffused photography lights. Our scans and photographs are always perfect quality if clients require giclee prints of their hand painted portrait for friends or family.

Client Horse Portraits Reference Photos
Our clients email a range of photographs for us to work with, we use one for the main pose of the portrait and others for detail, backgrounds etc

Client Comments and Feedback
We are always thrilled to read our clients emails, we are in touch with clients via email and sometimes via telephone, skype and texts throughout the entire process. Clients also leave us messages on our portraits in progress blog when they are watching their portrait in progress and also comment on our facebook page too. We try to add snippets of their emails here for you to read, plus you can see more photos of happy clients with the portraits in our client feedback section too.

Dear Melanie,

My wife and I are commissioning this portrait as a birthday gift for Helen, so I just wanted to confirm that it would be fine to send it to our home address.

I think Nick has captured Erna’s character perfectly, and I know that Helen will be thrilled with the portrait. Please thank Nick for us for such a wonderful piece of work, and particularly too for completing it in time for Helen’s birthday.

Many thanks once again, and best wishes,

Graeme
