Couple/Family Portrait Commission

 

Want a cartoon-y portrait of you and your sweetheart, or perhaps of yourself and a pal or your pet? Want to surprise your mom with a sweet illustration of your family, or get a lovely one-of-a-kind gift for their wedding?

 
 

Couple/family portraits are done in ink and watercolour on 140 lb paper. I offer two sizes:

  • 5x7 - start at $150 (+ tax)

  • 8x10 - start at $200 (+ tax)

Each portrait includes 2 subjects. Any additional people are $35 per person, and additional pets are $20. If you are looking to illustrate a family of four or more, I strongly recommend the larger 8x10 size.

All I need is a photo to work from that’s shot in good lighting and shows whoever will be in the portrait from head to toe. You don’t have to be posing together in the photo necessarily, but I do need a photo where everyone is present or I need the heights of whoever is in the photo for reference. (Please consult the commission photo FAQ page if necessary).

I require payment in full up front but can accommodate 50% instalments. Once the payment is made, I send you a pencil sketch so that you can check over the illustration and let me know if there's anything you want to adjust or add to the image. That way, you're completely satisfied with the finished product. Once I get approval from you, I finish up inking and painting the piece. 

Illustrations can be shipped internationally and are mailed in an acid-free plastic sleeve with a hard backing to protect from water damage and bending.

Feel free to email me at natalieczer@gmail.com any time with any questions or commission requests, or fill out the form below. Please allow 1-2 business days for response (my email is not checked on weekends or after 5pm on weekdays), and check your junk/spam folder as sometimes my replies are sent there.

* Please note that deposits are non-refundable. Furthermore,  I am not able to offer refunds or exchanges, as I am a small business of one and can't be responsible for how mail is handled and for different postal systems.

** I do 1-2 rounds of edits, but beyond that may charge an extra fee for additional rounds of edits.

Please note that during the months of November and December, payment is required in full up front. If you are unable to pay in full up front, let me know and I should be able to accommodate with payments done in instalments.
