"What an absolute pleasure from start to finish.
Luke painted our children for a surprise gift for my wife's 40th Birthday. I don't think I truly appreciated the emotional beauty that would be captured in the final piece. Luke's work encompasses the very essence of the relationship between our children. He has produced a painting with soul and charm, that will be a part of our home forever. Thank you sir" - Paul Jewison
Portrait Commissions.
A Commissioned portrait is a unique piece of art that will remain for many generations to come. It is an organic and authentic way of capturing a moment, and achieves another dimension that photography cannot. As well as a personal piece of artwork, it becomes a piece of history, reinventing the raw human essence in time.
I love working on Portrait Commissions. I like the process and outcome to be a mutual endeavor between myself and the client, achieving a piece of work that will remain unique and special to both parties.
I work from both life and photograph.
- Medium: Paintings are completed in Oil on Linen Canvas and are usually finished with a satin varnish. All completed using the highest quality pigments on fine Belgian linen. Drawings are completed in graphite, charcoal, and white chalk and are completed on hand toned paper.
- Sittings: We can discuss the amount of sittings you'd like to take. There can be numerous sittings, or a study can be completed from one sitting, with the remaining work completed from photography. It all depends on the style of painting you'd like to go for.
If you would like to discuss your painting with me, please email lukethompsonart@gmail.com or call me on 07850050315.
