Fab Photo Needed For Oil Painting
      #1897990 - 17/06/2008 16:34

Hi everyone

I need help!

One of the growing areas of my business is commissioning high quality oil portraits of boats/yachts. IŽve shown examples of our work to two well known sailing and boating magazines and both are keen to take me up on my offer of offering up a boat Portrait as a Reader Prize in their mags. The one snag is that they want to show a high resolution image of the photo submitted to base the portrait on, as well as the resulting portrait.

Alas, the portraits weŽve done to date donŽt have a high enough resolution image to reproduce in the magazines. Does anyone have a high resolution photo of their boat that could go into a magazine?

If, on the off chance, you like the sound of having a portrait of your boat done, (it can also be of you and your boat) have a really good clear photo we could use, and will allow us to use both the photo and resulting portrait in our promotional material (no names will ever be mentioned), then IŽd be delighted to commission your portrait at cost price.

If youŽd like more details, IŽd be so happy to hear back from you.

Best wishes

Tim

You can have a photo of mine, I'm not paying anything though - if it's promoting your business I'd just like the portrait, please - I think that's fair?
