Automotive Pop Realism Paintings
About Pop Realism Paintings:
My Pop Realism painting style blends the vibrant energy of Pop Art with the attention to detail characteristic of Realism. This allows for creative licence, as artworks are not as intricate as traditional Realism, with flat areas of bright and bold colours and the artworks have less shadow or rendering work. This unique style also brings extra life and personality to the artworks.
Commissioning your own Automotive Pop Realism painting consists of a few simple steps:
Contact > Payment > Painting > Shipping
1. CONTACT
The first step in the process of commissioning a custom Automotive Pop Realism painting of your car will be to contact me via email at info@thecartist.com or one of my social media channels. When you contact me, please include at least 1 to 3 reference photos of the subject matter and send them to me via email. We can discuss the layout and design possibilities and I will advise which photo(s) will work best as reference for the artwork.
2. PAYMENT
Once you are happy with the proposed design and layout we will move to making payment. PayPal is the preferred and secured payment method for all international customers.
Pricing for commissioned Automotive Pop Realism paintings range from $500 - $3,000 USD and are dependent on a number of factors, such as the canvas size, as well as the complexity and level of detail of the subject matter. A full cost-estimate will be given before any payment is made.
3. PAINTING
Once the payment is received, your commissioned artwork will be added to my schedule. The entire commissioning process will take roughly 4 to 6 weeks to complete, depending on how busy I am with other projects and commissions. I will keep you updated during the process and send you photos of the automotive painting once completed.
Mediums: All my paintings are hand-painted using high-quality and durable art materials which include Winsor & Newton and Daler Rowney professional acrylic paints and brushes.
Canvas: All my paintings are done on premium grade 100% cotton 380gsm fine weave stretched canvas. Various sizes are available to choose from starting at A2 size (420 x 594 mm - 16.5 x 23.4 in) and larger.
Varnish: After each painting is completed, it is varnished with Liquitex professional gloss varnish which adjusts and unifies the surface sheen, boosts the brightness and colour saturation, as well as protects the painting against dust, dirt and UV light.
4. SHIPPING
Once the automotive pop realism painting is finished and you are happy with the end result, the painting will be shipped to you. Shipping costs of the painting will be based on the size as well as the final shipping destination of the painting. Shipping comes with full online tracking and tracing. Delivery takes between 3 to 6 business days, depending upon destination and customs.
My artworks have successfully been shipped to countries all over the world, including the USA, the UK, Canada, Australia, as well as countries across Europe and the Middle East.
Shipping Option 1: Unframed
The painting is safely removed from the frame, carefully rolled and shipped in a solid and sturdy postal/mailing tube for 100% safety. Upon arrival the buyer takes it to their local framing store where the painting can easily be re-stretched/framed. This is the safest and most cost-effective option to ship any painting.
Shipping Option 2: Framed
The painting is safely and securely packaged and shipped in its gallery frame with brass keyhole slots ready to hang and enjoy! This option is more expensive to ship, as it is shipped in its gallery frame, which calculates to a much larger shipping weight.
Both shipping options (unframed and framed) are fully insured.
