PROCEDURE
Initially the client and artist get acquainted at either the client's
location or the artist's studio. Mr. Paules then holds one and possibly
two photographic sittings of about two hours. All professional lighting,
equipment and techniques are used, and every effort is made to accommodate
the sitter's schedule.
The artist returns to his studio to select four to six photographs
to use as reference and enlarges them to 8"x 10" size. These photographs
are submitted to the client for comments. Mr. Paules and the client
discuss the photographs either by phone or in person and, upon the
client's approval, the artist proceeds with the portrait. If another
photographic session is required, it can be arranged at that point.
Note: Before the artist agrees to paint a posthumous portrait, he
feels it is necessary to see the reference material from which he
will be working to ensure the highest quality portrait.
