About the Artist

TweetSuccess.com presents Works by Northwest Artist Dennis Adler

A original house portrait makes a thoughtful and welcome housewarming, anniversary or wedding gift. These beautiful drawings vary in size from 8" x 10" to 18" x 24" depending on angle, foliage, balance and your preference. You may order your house portrait in color or in black and white, color is slightly more expensive. Portaits of commercial or industrial buildings are also available. All are carefully drawn and ready to frame.

How it works

1. Check out our samples below (keeping in mind that the web can't really portray the detail and subtlety of the finished portrait as well as we'd like).
2. Fill out our House Portrait Information Request form.
3. Get us several pictures of your home. You can do this two ways:
   1. Mail us several photos of the home. We prefer at least 5" X 7" glossy. Pay special attention to lighting so that porch details are not obscured, for example. It's best to send a panorama and several different angles. If you do, you'll also need to indicate which view you prefer for the finished portrait. If you live in the Portland Metropolitan area, the mid-Willamette Valley or the western Columbia Gorge in Oregon (or comparably close in Washington), we would be happy to take the photos for you.
      If you want a portrait of a home that now exists only in photos, we'll try to work with what you have.
   2. Upload photos via the Internet. The form will allow you to attach photos stored on your computer. These can be from a digital camera, a scanned photo or a CD that most photo developers now offer as an option.
4. Dennis will evaluate the images, work with you to make sure that the planned portrait is what you have in mind and set the price.
5. Once the approach and price are agreed to, we request a 40% non-refundable down payment. When you receive your portrait in about 3 weeks, the balance is due.

Costs

Costs range from $350 to $600 for a medium sized single family dwelling of one or two stories. (A Queen Anne with lots of gingerbread will be a little more than a simpler-lined bungalow or ranch-style). If your home is a castle (Dennis has experience with a tinsel-town mansion), send us a sample photo and we'll give you an estimate.
