Price Estimates

Commissions are created with black graphite pencils and can have a splash of color if desired. Each piece is hand-drawn from your photographs. I am also able to combine photos. For example, the drawing above was created from two seperate photos. The young boy was trying to kiss his mom, and the dog was smelling several flowers! I thought the tension that was created by combining the two captured a tender moment. Each commission piece includes a black matte and black frame which is ready for hanging. Please see my contact information if you have any questions. Thank you! 

In the price list below, the term "Figure" includes people, pets, or any combination of both for the commissioned portrait.

I have also been commissioned to do many large pieces that range in size from 14" x 17" to 36" x 48" as well as architectural renderings and works in colored pencil as shown in my "other artwork" page. Commissioned pieces with over 4 figures, works that are 14" x 17" or larger, or commissioned pieces in color, please contact me at jlm@jodimonroe.com for pricing! 

Once a portrait is commissioned, it will take around 3-4 weeks to complete. I require a deposit of 50% upfront with the balance due at the completion and receipt of the piece. I accept payments of cash, personal check, and money order.
