There is something rather enduring and significant about having one’s portrait done in oils… and we think you’re possibly just the person to appreciate it.

 

If you’ve ever considered the idea of portraiture previously, you will know that one of the big concerns is who to commission as the artist. Will they capture the subject’s likeness… let alone personality?

 

• As usual, Auctionair is here to help:

  Allow us to introduce Helen Masacz whose artistic credentials as a portraitist speak volumes.

• To put things in perspective: Helen has exhibited in the National Portrait Gallery alongside 50 of the country’s top portraitists – including names likeTracy Emin and Marc Quinn.
  
  

• For this Lot, Helen Masacz will produce a highly personal portrait either of you or the person of your choosing. There will be a sitting lasting up to two hours during which preliminary sketches will be made and photographs taken.

• Above all, Helen will take time to get to know the person behind the face – her aim being to bring the portrait alive with the sitter’s personality.
  
  

• As Helen has over 40 commissions under her belt, you can rest assured that you’re in the hands of a highly regarded artist. And by the way: the Right Hon Baroness Valerie Amos acquired one of Helen’s pieces in auction. So with a Masacz on your wall, you’ll be in pretty good company.
