Commissioned Horse Paintings

If you would like to commission me to paint a horse painting for you, please telephone me on 07884 198748 or email your favourite horse photos to me with any ideas you might have regarding the painting you would like.

Email your Photo’s to us…

I will then look at your specific requirements and either discuss by phone or send you an email with a written quotation which will be tailored to your request.

A deposit of £50.00 is required before starting a horse painting.
The remaining balance is to be paid before the painting is posted.

Do you have decent photographs of your horse?

If you do not have decent photographs of your horse we can photograph your horse for you!
Photographing your horse is free of charge for a portrait painting as long as you live within a 15 mile radius from the village of Exton in Rutland.
There is a travel charge beyond the 15 mile radius.

PLEASE NOTE:
Photographs taken are the copyright of ©John Richardson.
They are only available for sale 14 days after the commission is completed and payment for the portrait has been made in full.

Helpful tips for taking your own photos

Try to keep at eye level with your horse – not too close as this can distort the angle of view. If possible have someone as an helper to stand a little way behind the photographer and make noises, to draw the attention of your horse.

Alterations to the horse painting, if needed

Once your horse painting is at a stage for viewing, John will scan and send a proof via email for your approval.
If alterations are necessary I will make the adjustments to the painting and send further proofs until your horse painting is as you like it.

We offer a bespoke picture framing service if required.
