Kevin Hayward Art Commissions

THE COMMISSION PROCESS

To create my drawings, I only work with the best materials! I use professional grade graphite and I draw on acid free Bristol board.

​

To secure a booking with me I require a high resolution image/s and a non-refundable £100 deposit. I will need to approve the image/s before receiving your deposit. Once the deposit has been paid this secures a place on my schedule.

​

I will keep you updated throughout the drawing process. This is to ensure your complete satisfaction. If you are happy with the final proof then you will be ecstatic when the actual drawing is delivered!

​

I’m usually booked 10-12 months in advance so please think ahead! Ready to get the ball rolling? Then just send me an enquiry via the contact form.

THE PERFECT IMAGE

For me to produce my best work then I do insist on working from high-resolution images. Ideally using a DSLR camera but the latest camera phones will take a cracking photo in the right conditions. Here are my top tips for capturing the perfect image.

​

Always take your photos in natural light. That’s either outside or in a well-lit room. Overcast days are perfect for portrait photography. This is when the light is even.

​

  • Always take the photo at the eye level of the subject/s.

  • Avoid shadow. This will obscure detail.

  • Get your distances right. Unless you have lenses that allow you to photograph from afar just get close. Never use the zoom function on a camera phone, it will deteriorate the quality.

  • If using a camera phone, please do not apply filters to your images.

​​

If you have any further questions please do not hesitate to contact me.

CARING FOR YOUR ARTWORK

Graphite pencil drawings can last a lifetime, however it is a delicate medium and needs to be cared for.
