Why Commission a Portrait ?
a portrait is a gift of love, a symbol of a legacy
There are many reasons for a portrait commission. Parents wanting to capture and preserve a precious moment in their children's lives; A husband wanting to immortalize the love of his life; a wife who wants to honor her husband; a family looking to memorialize the life of a departed loved one. There are official government portraits, corporations and institutions honoring founders, CEOs, and past presidents.
Whatever your reason for commissioning a portrait, Gerard Bianco can help make your dream a reality.
Our Best Selling Portrait - Head & Shoulders
A charcoal portrait is an affordable way to immortalize the likenesses of loved ones. It's a work of art that will be passed on from generation to generation.
Experience the power of Gerard's charcoal portraits. These artworks capture the personality and spirit of the sitter in a less expensive way than an oil painting.
A head & shoulders portrait is the best seller. The typical size is 11" x 14", 16" x 20", or 20" x 24". A fine portrait is a keepsake that literally outlasts many lifetimes - a treasure passed from generation to generation.
Gerard provides guidance throughout the process, managing all aspects of the commission, including recommending framing and lighting to ensure a seamless and successful portrait commission experience.
Gerard can help with photographing your finished portrait to create prints that can be given as gifts to family members.

3/4-Length Portrait
A 3/4 length, sitting or standing, may contain one, or both hands. It's usually 30" x 36", or can be custom made to fit.
Full-Length and Group Portraits
A full-length portrait could be 72" or more, depending upon the size of the sitter. Smaller full-length portraits are available, as well.
A group portrait is normally smaller than life-size. It's a unique portrait experience for the entire family.
This full-length portrait of a young girl is a bit smaller than life-size. It is 24" x 36", which is still an imposing and impactful painting.
Posthumous Portraits
We're naturally saddened when we lose a loved one. A posthumous portrait honors the legacy of those we love.
Through the wizardry of lines on paper, or oil on canvas, the memory of our loved ones lives on from generation to generation. It's a kind of magic.
