Commissioned Portrait

$750.00

Get a truly unique contemporary portrait of the one you love!

Do you love one of my pieces but wish your son or daughter could be in the piece instead?

Did your favorite piece sell to somebody else?

Can't think of anything to get your loved one because they have everything (almost) already? 

 

Work with me to make your vision come alive

I will draw a lovely drawing for you. I am a contemporary figurative realist artist. I draw in my style, which is based on two figures. This drawing will be graphite on paper. 

I will add a contemporary design element to your piece that is truly one of a kind and unique. Please call or text me at 630-310-1580 to discuss your vision. Please email reference photos to mays@maysmayhew.com.

EACH ONE IS DRAWN FROM MY OWN INTERPRETATION OF THE SUBJECT. WHEN YOU PURCHASE A CUSTOM PORTRAIT, YOU ARE PURCHASING YOUR person AS SEEN THROUGH THE EYES OF Mays Mayhew. Although i draw highly realistic figurative work, PLEASE DO NOT ORDER IF YOU ARE EXPECTING AN EXACT REPRESENTATION OF YOUR person(s). MY FOCUS IS TO PORTRAY mood with a contemporary modern style ABOVE ALL ELSE.
