Mark Nardini Portraits and Fine Art

Mark Nardini
My goal is to create the most beautiful oil
portrait possible as well as a timeless work of
art in its own right. I follow a set procedure to
ensure that eac of my oil portraits are of the
highest standard and quality. I use the finest
materials and time-honored techniques for
longevity of the portrait. With care, oil
portraits on linen canvas will last many hundreds
of years and grant future generations the legacy
to perceive both the personality and likeness of
the subject.

PROCEDURE
The first step is to meet, get better acquainted
and discuss the specifics of your portrait. At
this initial meeting we will discuss pose,
clothing, setting and complete a photo shoot. At
the conclusion of the photo shoot (approximately
2 hours), we will make final selections that will
be used to create the portrait in the studio.
Following the photo selection, I will complete
a head sketch in oil of the subject from life.
This is a valuable color resource when planning
the final portrait.After returning to the
studio I will paint a small color study to convey
a sense of what finished portrait will look like.
After the study is approved, I begin the final
portrait.
