Masterpiece Portrait Sessions

Capturing the finer things in life

Our Masterpiece Portrait Sessions combine fine art photography with the very best of traditional painted portraits. Each session is planned around a particular vision. The end result being a one of a kind fine art portrait finished using digital painting techniques or for those looking only for the very best, using traditional oil paints.

Whether you’re looking for a family portrait, an heirloom personal portrait, a pet portrait or a business portrait, we plan every detail with you ahead of time. Unlike traditional painted portraits, we avoid the need for lengthy and uncomfortable sittings with the artist by replacing that part of the process with a stress free photo shoot.

If you’re thinking about investing in a fine art portrait, contact us to see what our talented team can create for you.

 

 

Meet the Artists

Janet Cunniffe-Chieffo is a classically trained artist who specializes in oil on canvas and oil on copper using a variety of techniques. Her artistic style produces very realistic fine art portraits that are true to life rather than abstract in nature.

Mat Robinson is a self taught photographer not constrained by the conventional norms. Combining his natural artistic ability with his technical background he is able to create photographs that are both stunning and unique. The photographs are just the starting point for his digital masterpieces. Using digital techniques that mirror those of a traditional painter, he is able to transform an already beautiful portrait into a true digital masterpiece.

Christine Robinson, whilst not an artist in the traditional sense, uses her dance skills to design poses and scenes that compliment any group or individual and make everyone look their best. She also coordinates the whole process to ensure that your experience is smooth from start to finish. She’s that invaluable, go to favorite brush in every painter’s tool box.

Craig Reinmann - to round out the team, Craig, with over 35 years experience as a custom framer will provide you with various frame and matting options that compliment the artwork and coordinate seamlessly with your décor. His craftsmanship and attention to detail are outstanding. Providing a complete service, he will also hang the art for you once the portrait is ready.

 

 

The Experience

Meeting

The success of our Masterpiece Sessions begins with a thorough understanding of your lifestyle and what the portrait represents to you. Understanding how you’ll display the portrait and what emotion you want viewers to feel is important. It helps us select the location or backgrounds, make wardrobe choices, make lighting decisions and define the overall artistic feel.

Planning

From the information we gather at our meeting we’ll be able to plan the session in fine detail. Planning is crucial. The portrait will be in your family for many, many generations so it has to be perfect.

Photo Shoot

The photo shoot itself can be done on location or in our studio. This will be an exciting and fun time. And because of the planning we’ve already done, it won’t take up much of your valuable time.

Framing

Whether you’re doing a traditional oil on canvas or a digital masterpiece, we are able to show you proofs to not only select the initial image you’d like to use for your art, but also to see the progress and select the frame you’d like to use.

Unveiling

Many of our clients like to hold a party to unveil their new masterpiece right in their own home. This can be just your immediate family or a more elaborate affair. Either way, we will plan the perfect party for you while the framed art is hung and covered with a velvet curtain ready for the big reveal.

 

 

The Products

Digital Masterpiece on Canvas

A digital masterpiece portrait that is printed on canvas has the look of a traditional painting but without the 3d textural relief that is produced with oil paint. The painting process is much faster because each layer does not need to dry before the next layer can be applied. But just like a traditional oil painting, the brush strokes are all done by hand creating a very realistic paint effect. We only print on the finest canvases that have a museum archival rating.

Traditional Oil on Canvas

Using our photographs as a guide, the artist carefully reproduces the art using the traditional oil painting techniques of the old masters. Building up layers of color to produce rich, vibrant images that have depth and texture. Using a portrait light reveals these strokes and further enhances the beauty of your masterpiece. We only use the finest canvas and oil paints available to ensure a long lasting and archivally stable piece of art.

Giclee Reprints on Canvas

Giclee reprints can be made from your digital masterpiece or your traditional oil painting. They can be reproduced at the same size or smaller and are great for giving as gifts to other family members or proudly displaying in your  office. Giclee prints use the same materials and methods of printing as our digital masterpiece portraits. A giclee print of a traditional oil painting will look just like the original but will not have the 3d textural relief in the brushstrokes.

Premium Photographic Papers

Once we have the artwork produced, we can print unlimited copies on any of our premium photographic papers. This makes them perfect to give as gifts or use on announcement cards, holiday cards, etc.
