Item Description

The winning bidder will receive a certificate for $500 from Michael Stone Portraits to be used for:

  • a location portrait session at the winning bidder’s home or location of choice (value $250; 1.5 hour radius of Worcester, MA; a nominal travel charge for further locations)
  • the remaining $250 of the gift certificate is a credit to be used by the winning bidder for his/her order

Michael Stone Portraits - All of our portraits are expertly crafted and meticulously hand finished for uncompromising quality. Each piece four by five inches and larger is mounted on artist board to preserve and protect the portrait, then carefully coated with hand applied glaze finish for life-long protection and to bring out the depth and beauty of the image, then beautifully hand edged in a gold finish. Wall portraits are bonded to natural fiber canvas on stretcher frames, the same way priceless works of art are displayed in museums. Careful retouching of every image by hand, blending highlight and shadow, accenting every eye, painstakingly detailing every feature, creates a final image that you will be proud to display in your home.

Each piece is truly a one-of-a-kind work of art. It takes 8-12 weeks to produce such exacting quality by hand. We consider a 16x20 and larger a wall portrait; packages that include a wall portrait come with a complimentary frame on your largest size.

Packages - Portrait Guide

from Michael Stone: "products are available in gift, personal, album and desk sizes from $89 to $429; many of my clients choose to have one or more of their portraits made as wall art; I consider a wall piece to be 16 x 20 inches or larger."

"*Wall art images are from $999 for the 16x20 to as large as a client might want to have, depending on the display space they have and upon working with me to determine the correct size for their area and budget. Of course, there is no requirement for the winner to select more than the $250 credit from the certificate. Often clients will select more because they are thrilled with the art we have created, but such selections are at their discretion entirely."
