Commissions & teaching
Simon takes a small number of portrait and drawing commissions, and has taught life drawing for over thirty years. Whether it’s a portrait of someone you love or a class for your group, it begins with a conversation.
How it works
We start with a conversation — the subject or sitter, the medium, the size and what you want the piece to hold. No obligation.
For a portrait, Simon works from sittings or from your photographs, beginning with drawn studies to find the likeness and the pose.
The finished drawing or painting is developed in his own hand — coloured pencil, pastel, conté or paint, as suits the subject.
You approve the finished work, which can be supplied mounted or framed and delivered ready to hang.
What can be commissioned
Good to know
Details are indicative and will be confirmed with Simon. Pricing depends on medium, size and the nature of the commission.
Tell Simon about your space and your idea. Every commission begins with a simple, no-obligation conversation.
