materials

My commitment extends to the choice of pigments and other materials.

I exclusively use Winsor & Newton's premium oil paints, specifically from their esteemed Artists' line. These pigments are renowned for their unparalleled brilliance, lightfastness, and permanence, ensuring your artwork remains vibrant for generations to come.

A double-primed Fredrix Pro Series 111 linen canvas, it's used as a support. It is woven to the highest standards with a uniform weave that is suitable for most work in portraits and fine techniques. Picked, pumiced, sized, and primed all by hand in north of Atlanta, Georgia. 

8 x 8 inches - 2,500 USD

Normally small-format artworks have a high level of demand, they must be treated with the finest paintbrushes and with infinite patience to achieve all kinds of details.

The hyper-realistic art is structured in overlapping layers of pigments of various degrees of transparency, therefore each layer may require an extensive draying time overall.

Needs several layers of paint depending on the transparency of the pigment, this adds more time to the realization since each layer of paint must dry correctly to be able to apply another on top, taking up to three weeks of work.

The painting is delivered framed and well protected in a rigid box.

18 x 28 inches - 4,200 USD

This format is ideal, it fits on any wall in your home, office or garage, and is large enough compared to the previous format, it allows you to appreciate each and every detail from a further distance. It also requires several layers and drying stages. It takes approximately 30 working days.

The painting is delivered framed and well protected in a rigid box.

50 x 80 inches - Starting at 12,000 USD

Large formats undoubtedly require the most time, taking into account that each one of the processes is carried out by hand. Everything, starting with the assembly and stretching of the canvas, going through a prior pencil drawing of the object and ending with each layer of paint, has to be done with careful consideration.

It can take between three and four months of work. Its large size will make you feel that you are in the presence of a three-dimensional object, transcending the boundaries between art and reality.

Process of booking

I. Waiting list

Currently, my waiting list is two months. This means the work will be started two months after you make your reservation. To reserve a place on this list simply press the “Book Now” button below, and send me a message with the idea and the image of the vehicle you have in mind.

II. Photographic references

Because the paintings contain a high level of detail, it is necessary that the photograph provided for reference is of the highest possible resolution.

This photo must be taken from an angle in which the line of the vehicle is not distorted. The ideal method to achieve this is to move away from the object and use the camera zoom.

Light and reflections are another detail that may or may not favor the aesthetics of the vehicle, I recommend locating the subject away from places or elements that can generate complex reflections such as trees or shiny objects.

The easiest way to achieve this is to take the photo in places with controlled light, such as garages or outdoors at hours when the sunlight is low (that is, in the morning or afternoon).

The ideal would be an image taken by a professional photographer. Alternatively, I could take it personally if you cover the transportation and lodging expenses within the territory of the United States.

III. Payment and Reservation

Once we settle on the photograph from which the work is going to be carried out, you must proceed to make an advance deposit of 10% of the total cost of the order. This deposit is not refundable since you are reserving a space in my calendar that could be used by another person.

On the date of tour turn you will receive a notice, and a request to pay the remaining balance. When the payment is confirmed, I will proceed with the creation of the commissioned piece.

IV. creation process

Once I start working on the piece, I will send you the videos referred to above. If you like surprises, and want to wait the piece is finalized, let me know. The time it takes to complete the work will depend on the size, technique, and complexity, as shown in the price section.

Keep in mind that the time to complete a work of art it's very subjective, usually the 8" x 8" pieces need 15 working days, the 18" x 28" ones need 30 days of work, and 50" x 80" between three and four months of work.

I can only produce a few pieces like these in one year.

V. Delivery

After finishing the work and with your prior approval, I will proceed to send it.
The work will be sent inside of a personalized rigid box to ensure is well protected, together with a certificate of authenticity. Both the work and the certificate they will be signed and minted.

All paintings smaller than 18 x 28 are delivered framed.

The box will be protected by other materials to ensure the safety of the piece. The time it takes to send will depend on the region to which the package is sent. Shipping cost will be included within the territory of the United States.

If you wish to receive the painting in another country, an additional fee will be charged.
