The first step in commissioning a portrait is to contact the artist or representative and arrange for an initial talk or visit. The artist and client will discuss plans for the piece. Where will the painting hang? How large will it be? How formal? What special objects or clothing may be used? Where will the sittings take place? The decision to be painted and by whom is an important one and a rapport between the artist and sitter is essential. The experience should be comfortable as well as memorable. Questions for prospective client.Desired medium, size of portrait, where will it hang, settings or place, availability for sittings and photography?
