The Studio Practice

Fine-art portrait commissions for individuals and families in Toronto, Miami, Montreal, and Ottawa

“His quiet, gentle manner invites presence, and the portraits feel alive.”

[Studios]

The work takes place in dedicated studios across Toronto, Miami, Montreal, and Ottawa.
Each location supports the same standard of privacy, continuity, and focus—allowing commissions to be created in a consistent, controlled environment, regardless of city.

[The Approach]

We begins with a quiet exchange to understand what matters most to you. In the studio, I guide the session with a focus on presence rather than poses. We conclude by selecting the image that feels undeniably true—from there, your final piece is handcrafted to endure as part of your family’s history.

[Individual Requests]

For work developed beyond the studio practice, including editorial collaborations, environmental portraiture, or concept-led commissions. Projects are undertaken selectively.

Studio Standards

Commissioning the Work

To begin, a studio commission is reserved at $1 500. This investment is credited toward the artwork you ultimately choose to bring into your home.

Final works are realized as either Monochrome Works or handcrafted Mixed Media Art pieces.

Monochrome Works begin at $1 500.
Mixed Media Art begins at $7 500.

The Tempo

We set aside two hours for each sitting. This allows space for conversation and unhurried portraiture, followed by a private viewing of the portraits. The work unfolds with presence, never against the clock.

Completion

As an artisanal process, fine art prints are completed within 8–12 weeks. Handcrafted mixed media pieces require 4–6 months.
