Choosing a portrait artist
I encourage people to see what's out there. You'll know what you like. Everyone has their own style. My style is distinguished by loose strokes, and often in a background which "fits" color wise, and is quite watered down (watercolors). My sort-of "trademark" is a subtle halo around the subject. As you look through my art, you'll also see that I can create very traditional work as well.

How it works:

  • Mail or e-mail one or , (preferably)  two, good photos, (quality important), especially color - I wouldn't like to paint a dog that's actually black, but brown in the photo.
  • Which medium you would like: watercolor, pencil, or colored special
  • Brief description of pet, including its personality.
  • Prior to sending, as soon as I think it's showable  I take a picture  of  it , e-mail it to you, then finish details and send, postage is free.
  • I need 14 days to complete your picture. If I have no other work at the time, you may receive it sooner.
  • Tell me anything else you are looking for in the picture, please be specific.
  • Questions? Call 207-698-7988 or E-mail baststudio@myfairpoint.net
