Step by step guide…
Browse through our different medium pricelist options and select the size, medium, how many faces (1 – 6), and any other features you prefer. We will contact you to finalize details.
Alternatively you can call, email, WhatsApp, or set up a physical meeting to discuss the project. See contact details
We will discuss the subject, composition, price, size, delivery … and any additional requests. Please let me know of any changes you would like to add to the reference picture at this stage, as it might affect the pricing.
Please note that I don’t do overly complicated combinations or editing of photos any more. Straightforward imagery that can be used as it is with minor changes, is fine.
All the final details will be put in writing and both parties will sign a Commission Contract. 50% deposit will be payable before work begins. This will also ensure your place in the waiting list if I have more than one project lined up.
I will send you a rough photoshop photo layout to ensure you are happy with the composition and to make any final changes before I commence with the actual artwork.
During the project I will send you updates of the work in progress via email/WhatsApp to ensure that you like the compositions, colours etc. Special Notes: In the early stages you should let me know if anything bothers you or if you would like changes, especially when it comes to drawings (pencil and soft pastels). Oil is a fairly forgiving medium, so I can still make changes up to the end.
A photo of the finished portrait will be emailed or whatsapp for approval before delivery. We can still sort out any minor changes and details if you are not completely happy with product.
Make the final Payment of the balance owing before delivery of the commission as per agreement. Artwork will be delivered at the premises of your choice. Additional fee is applicable, pricing depends on Location. Special Note: The cost to deliver at a major city or big town is less expensive than smaller towns or villages.
A good artist’s schedule is usually quite full, so I will suggest that you book any time-sensitive portraits like Birthday or Christmas Gifts at least 3 – 4 months prior to avoid disappointment.
The quality of your commission results depends highly on the quality of the reference material. An artists can only draw what he/she can see.

Correct Framing can add an extra layer of glamour to any art piece – good or bad. However with the 1000s of options to choose from this can be difficult…
Liesel completed a commission for me that was absolutely incredible. She’s very professional and the entire experience was nothing if not pleasant. I can highly recommend her!

Absolutely loved my piece from the super talented Liesel Wessels. Very professional, dedicated and compassionate artist.
Johannesburg, South Africa
We came across Liesel’s work on facebook,but because we live far from where she is based,we just had contact via phone. Despite of this,she totally delivered what we had in mind,even on short notice. She also sent us updates on how the piece was coming along,which was so great to see. Such a talented artist. We would definately recommend her. May your business be blessed Liesel!

I think Liesel is very talented and is doing a great job. I was very happy with the final product. Her service was excellent throughout the process and I would give it a 100% rating. She made me feel that I was part of the process and the product, so by the end I was more excited to see the finished product. I really think she’s doing an incredible job and would definitely use her again. I would also recommend anyone close to me to utilize her services, it’s just incredible!
