Before We Begin

Lets get to know your Portrait

To make your portrait truly meaningful, I ask a few guiding questions up front. This helps me understand the context, mood, and story behind the image:

  1. Who is being portrayed? (Name, age, relation to you if relevant)

  2. What is the context? (Team, book, family, editorial, etc.)

  3. What mood or feeling should the portrait convey? (e.g. joyful, calm, proud...)

  4. Do you have preferred colors or tones?

  5. Would you like any symbolic objects, patterns or backgrounds included?

  6. Do you have 1–3 photo references I may use?

  7. Do you prefer a digital or original piece—or both?

Portrait of Billie Holiday and her band: she's singing into a microphone, one is playing guitar, one is playing clarinet, and one is at the piano. The colors are mainly blue, black, white, and gray, with some orange accents."
