Portrait Commissions

If you wish to give a gift that may be in full view for a very long time, contact me at verburgtanthony@ gmail.com for information. This will include what I will need for a successful painting as well as a list of prices. Remember that I can only paint it as I see it. I can't make anything up and it must be very clear. :)

Koyuki Kato - Japanese Star.

When I watched the "Last Samurai", which had as stars Ken Watanabe, Tom Cruise, Hiroyuki Sanada and Koyuki Kato, I knew my next portrait challenge would be of this very lovely actress. My next may be one of the actress Anna Sawaii in the new miniseries Shogun.

The Book Worm

 One of my Former High School students requested that I paint a commission of her grandson. She sent the photo which is faithful to it. She was so surprised that I included Hannah outside beyond the sliding glass door. The challenge of this painting is the perspective and the book, which has the text.

"Alexa"

 Another commission I received from Colombia. A fun one to do. The new detail brush I have found to paint the single strands of hair and other details make portraiture so much more enjoyable.

"The Sisters"

A request was made to paint this for a mother's Christmas present. 

 

"Great Grandmaster Al Tracy - Head of the Tracy Organization"

 I am proud to have studied directly under this great martial artist while on my journey. All of my Black Belt, 1st degree to 10th degree ratings, were sanctioned through his direct teachings.

"Bullet"

 A requested memorial pet portrait.
