Commissions painted by Anthony Coffey
1. Discussion with the client is welcome and
necessary throughout the commission artwork procedure.You can e-mail your own photos of the subject as reference. We can choose the medium that fits your budget.
- All photos are kept in strict confidence, and are for my use only in creating the final painting.
- No photos can or will be displayed or published without written consent of the person whose image is in the photograph. Your confidence is assured.
- Note
that all photos taken by Anthony Coffey remain the exclusive property

Photography Fees
I do not charge anything extra for the photo session, as
that is part of the commission. If however the artwork commission is
terminated, and my client wants the photographs, a fee of $75 is to be
paid for time and materials, and the photographs will be delivered on a
CD.
Otherwise, the only cost for photography would be
travel expenses to locations farther than 50 miles from my studio. I am
willing to travel round trip to any location worldwide at nothing more
than the cost of my expenses plus a reasonable amount more for my time.
I
prepare a sketches and/or a small preliminary study of the proposed art subject. The client and the subject are invited to comment on this
preliminary, as, whenever possible, I e-mail pictures of the
preliminary work for discussion.
With the client's full
approval, I begin the final painting. I use only the finest professional
brushes, paints, mediums and other materials available to assure your artwork will be archival, museum- or heirloom-quality
