OIL PORTRAITS
These can be painted on stretched canvas, linen, or a
variety of panels (depending on the desired effect and
size). Quality materials are always used with traditional
methods, ensuring long lasting and stable works of art.
Oil Painting / Bust (Head & Shoulders)
This represents a detailed, life-size image that usually
measures around 16X20 inches (with limited background
and clothing details) and can be finished from just one or
several sittings or from artist’s reference.
$1,000 - $2,000+
Oil Painting / The Seated Pose
The seated or upper body pose includes all the important
details in every element. The painting sizes start at around
18X24 and can reach approximately 36X40. Made from all
live sittings, or from photo sessions at your convenience at
the artist's studio.
$2,000 - $5,000+
Oil Painting / Full Figure Paintings
Life-size and traditionally grand in scale, detailed and
accurate, this kind of portrait painting will command
attention in any setting and be wonderful to view, either
at a close range or at a distance.
$3,000 - $10,000+
Framing is not included but the artist will be happy to be
helpful in this area.
Varnishing of oil paintings used to be more important
when the heating in homes was mainly through fireplaces
or when oil lamps provided the lighting, so there was
much smoke and soot in the air inside homes. Varnishing
is not quite a necessity today, but it is a good protective
seal that brings out the deeper oil colors and equalizes the
sheen from the different paint affects. Jack usually
varnishes his paintings, though the paint must be allowed
to dry thoroughly.
PASTEL PORTRAITS
Jack Anglin uses a variety of the finest artist’s pigments on
100% cotton (acid free) papers or specially prepared panels.
Pastels need to be matted and framed under glass as they
always require that protection. One of the advantages of
pastels is their 'flat' appearance--not ever shiny, and when
displayed with non-reflective UV filtering glass they will
always look great. Pastels are pure, quality pigments and
Jack includes no chemical additives or lacquer sprays, so
they will remain unchanged. Pastels of the Impressionists
found in museums are still bright and beautiful after more
than a century.
Pastel / Bust (Head & Shoulders)
This represents a detailed, life-size image that usually
measures around 16X20 inches (with limited background
and clothing details) and can be finished from several
sittings, and/or a photo session at your convenience.
$600 - $1,000+
Pastel / The Seated Pose
A life-size, popular view, the seated pose includes important
details in every element. A painting of this size generally has
an image area of 18X24 or slightly larger –and is made from
several sittings.
$1,200 - $3,000+
Pastel / Full Figure
Not life-size images (except for a small child), such a large
choice is perhaps better suited for an oil painting where
larger size panels are more readily possible (and no glass is
required with oils). Certainly there are ideas and subjects
that can possibly be better handled with pastels. That all
depends on many things!
$2,000 - $5,000+
PAYMENT and DEPOSIT
Payments are accepted in a variety of forms convenient for
my patrons.
A deposit of one half the price is made after the details are
agreed upon, with the balance due at completion. These
prices/fees are for one person or one figure. Adding a second
or third person and a pet, or pets, is of course possible at
fractional prices.
FRAMING is additional but the artist will be glad to help in
this area.
Prices do not include additional sales tax and any other
applicable local taxes.
