PORTRAITS

Hilary's portraits take a fine, detailed approach similar to her botanical work, she works in coloured pastel, pastel pencils, charcoal and graphite pencil.

Example portraits are shown below (permission having been granted by the sitters).   Please select the silver 'details' button to view magnified sections of the artwork.

Commissions are always welcome, so if you would like to commission a portrait, please feel free to contact Hilary, without obligation, to discuss your requirements. Please see Hilary's current portrait commission guidance for more details.

A giclee (jhee-clay) print is a French word meaning the spraying of ink.  It is a term used to refer to a unique printing technology.  A giclee print is the closest mechanical duplication of an original artwork that is currently possible.  The inks are water based, offer a high UV resistance, and under museum archival conditions are light-fast up to 70 years.
