COMMISSION A PORTRAIT
There’s nothing quite like the joy of hearing someone say, “My wife was absolutely thrilled with the portrait you created,” or receiving a message that reads, “Thank you for the beautiful portrait of my dad - you truly captured his character and spirit.”
Creating portraits that resonate on such a deep, emotional level is a privilege I cherish.
If you’re considering commissioning a portrait - whether of a parent, partner, child, close friend, or colleague - I’d be delighted to chat. Together, we can explore creative ideas and tailor the portrait to reflect the personality and story of your subject.
Portraits also make unforgettable surprise gifts, especially for special occasions like family celebrations or workplace milestones.
To arrange an initial conversation, just drop me a message through my contact page. I’d love to hear from you.
““I’ve never been one for overt flattery in portraiture so was thrilled to have Gideon Summerfield‘s work, with its Freudian levels of scrutiny, introduced to me last summer. I was fortunate enough to meet Gideon in New York and then again in London, sitting for him in both cities. The result is this portrait drawing, which I can see is full of the artist’s idiosyncrasies as a draughtsman. There is a rawness and honesty to the way Gideon portrays people, that some may find a little overwhelming, but that I believe reveals a maturity and artistic self-confidence far beyond his years (23). Thank you Gideon, I wouldn’t change a mark!””
