Commission an oil or watercolor painting
Have you or someone you love painted!
The steps
1. Send me an email - karen@karenannjones.com or a text 1-314-421-9901 to chat and send your photos.
2. Search for photos you like. I like photos that are clear and bright and looking at the camera. Higher resolution photos are better. I crop an create the composition to best suit the painting. I can also combine photographers for instance, if someone has passed away or there aren’t any photographs with two people together. I’ve also painted a grandchild in a man’s arms who had passed away making that photograph an impossibility.
Depending on how many commissions are ahead of you, it’ll take between two weeks and a month to complete it. There may be some drying time involved before shipping for it not to mess up.

Watercolors are generally restricted to one person due to size limitations.
