Sketches:

Given the subjective nature of art as a form of expression, we provide the best likeness our skills can achieve from the images supplied, but we are required to stipulate that exacting likeness can never be fully guaranteed, as it is our art artistic impression from images supplied that is the final outcome.  Our website showcases the likely outcomes and forms the basis of our supply contract with you. All commissions are undertaken with this mind and in good faith.

For speed and accuracy our pen and ink ‘dot’ style sketches are hand drawn directly from your images on translucent paper, again artistically enhanced by hand to emphasise detail and scanned to create hard copies. We then supply your with Ink Jet Prints and digital files. We retain the working copy should you misplace your files.

Images: On receipt of your image file, we will acknowledge that the image is workable and will commence service. Should it not be useable, we will email/text, to request alternatives, should this not be possible from conversations with the customer, we will fully re-fund.
