Portrait Commissions by John Brain

About Portrait Commissions

Discover portrait paintings by John Brain, created to capture personality, character, and emotion with exceptional attention to detail. From individual and family portraits to professional and commemorative commissions, each artwork is tailored to reflect the unique story of its subject.

The Portrait Commission Process

Every portrait commission begins with a discussion about your vision, preferred size, medium, and reference material. Once the details are agreed upon, John Brain develops the composition before beginning the painting, ensuring each portrait reflects the subject’s personality and character.

Sittings & Reference Photos

Portraits can be created from high-quality reference photographs or through personal sittings where appropriate. The most suitable approach depends on the subject, location, and requirements of the commission.

Pricing

Each portrait commission is individually quoted based on the size of the artwork, the number of subjects, the level of detail, and any specific requirements. Please get in touch to discuss your project and receive a personalised quotation.
