medium Pastel Portrait

Commission a 10” x 8” / 25 x 20 cm portrait with an optional frame.

Although pricing is stated in UK Sterling, I ship worldwide for free.

Please send a reference photo(s) and any extra information to info@gillianussherart.com. The 10” x 8” size allows for the extra option of one extra pet as a head and shoulder portrait, or one full bodied pet. There is also the option for some background detail. These extra options are priced below.

Pastel is the most popular and most commonly ordered medium. It can offer the same level of realism and character as an oil portrait, but takes far less time to complete making it more affordable. Pastel is especially suited to pet portraits, being delicate enough to capture the finest whips of hair, yet possessing enough depth to portray depth of expression in eyes.

Due to current waiting times, portraits will take 6-8 weeks to complete, if you require it sooner please let me know at time of ordering and I will do my best to accommodate.

There are a few different payment options available. There is the option to pay in full, the portrait will be shipped once you are 100% happy. Another option is to secure your order by placing a 50% deposit. The balance is payable upon completion, before shipping. There is also the option to pay in interest free weekly payments over a period of 10 weeks.

Framing

The framing options listed below are premade, off-the-shelf frames. Please let me know which frame colour you would like at time of ordering. A bespoke framing service is available for an extra cost upon request.

“When I lost my beloved Yusef at the young age of 6, a friend commissioned this beautiful portrait of him - he was well known for hat-wearing. Gillian captured him beautifully.”
