Animal Acrylic Painting

Something I’ve been doing this past year is creating BOLD COLOR ACRYIC PAINTINGS for animals. They are a little bit wild color wise, and less expensive than the oil painting, mainly because they are less time consuming and they are painted on a less expensive support. You see a layer of acrylic paint drys in about 15 to 20 minutes, where as an oil paint layer will take 7-14 days. Also, I do not use a wood or aluminum panel (this cost alone is averaging $75 to $150 just for one archival panel) but a regular canvas board or canvas support.

Please look at the following dogs, “Honey” ; and “Emeka, Astraya, and Coco” in these two mediums.

These are acrylic BOLD paitings (wild colors)

For one ANIMAL in bold acrylic colors (a bit on the wild side), this retails for a 12” x 16” on canvas board or canvas (artist’s choice) for $500 plus NMGRT (at 6.1875% tax rate) or $530.94. Shipping is extra (about $60).

For a 16 “ x 20” size, it retails for $600 plus NMGRT (or $637.13 ). Shipping ranges $65 to $80.

For “Family and Friends” pricing you get a 10% Discount, so a 12” x 16” size is $450.00 plus NMGRT, or $477.85; and a 16” x 20” size is $540 plus NMGRT, or $573.42. Shipping is extra, as stated above. A 50% deposit up front is required before painting starts, and the remainder (plus any shipping) is due upon completion.

IF there are no animal acylic paintings of any type ahead of you : It takes about eight weeks to finish an acrylic painting. Add on another 10 days for shipping.

Animal Oil Paintings

The following are examples of oil paintings of the same dogs. For one animal on an archival wood panel or RayMar panel or aluminum panel, a 12” x 16” retails for $800 plus NMGRT (or $849.50 ) and for a 16” x 20” retails for $900 plus NMGRT (or $955.69) . Shipping is extra.

For “Family and Friends” pricing (at a 10% Discount) : an animal oil painting : 12” x 16” is $720 plus NMGRT (or $764.55) and a 16” x 20” is $810 plus NMGRT (or $860.12). Shipping is extra. A 50% deposit up front is required before painting starts, and the remainder (plus any shipping) is due upon completion.

It takes about 3-4 months to finish an animal oil painting. Add another 10 days for shipping.
