Shocked mods please delete, offer ended

For some reason I could not delete my post about a portrait special. The special offer expired, so this needs to be deleted.

THANKS!!!

Here's what some of my customers have said:

"Darla, the portrait arrived and it's even BETTER in person if that's possible!! I am so completely 100% happy with the job you did, and thank you ever so much!!! (((((biggest hugs)))))"

"FABULOUS work! I can't say enough good about this artist!!! A+++++++++++++++++!"

"Worked really hard to get my portrait right - thanks for everything!"

Darlas work is BEYOND COOL! It's FABULOUS! Get it while you CAN!"

"It is wonderful! My mother and daughter both wanted it as a gift, but I'm keeping it for myself. Thanks again for such a beautiful piece of art!"

"I received the portrait. I've been showing it to many people and they think it's absolutely beautiful."

"WOW! The picture turned out so beautiful! I am speechless. Thank you so very much!"

"She captured his spirit in her drawing. It is the best possible memorial for a dead pet."

AOL Users <a href=" <[Only registered and activated users can see links. Either login above or Register Now]>">Click Here</a>

All you do is send me clear photos of your pet (no emailed pics, digital pics, or Polaroids, they all lack the detail I need).

Please send photos that show your pet at least 1-1/2" or 2" across in the face.

Turnaround time on the portraits is usually about 14 days, and your satisfaction is guaranteed.

jsalba, thanks for asking, and of course I don't mind answering!
It may help someone else too.

I am able to put 3 pets in a picture, but at this size, each pet would appear pretty small. We could decide to go larger because of this, but I just wouldn't have mats for larger size. If you'd like to email me to get into that further, please do, I can get it how you want it!: [Only registered and activated users can see links. Either login above or Register Now]
If we went a lot bigger, I would just need to roll it and send in a mailing tube.

The price is per portrait subject, not per portrait, so whether I put 3 portraits in a picture or drew them separately, the price would be the same.

Special price of $35 x 3 subjects = $105
Usual price of $75 x 3 = $225

Message edited: Sorry I don't offer framing at this time, I hope that in the future I can offer that. There are a lot of different tastes in frames etc so I try to stay basic and leave the framing up to the customer, whether they would like to buy a ready made frame themselves or get the art custom framed.

I'm in. Tell me how you want me to send payment, money order, check, paypal, whatever.

I would like to send you numerous pics and you decide which fit.. but I want all 3 of our dogs included. No biggie about the framing.. I understand.. and there is a nice framing place in town to do it.

Let me know.. via e-mail.. and I will pay you this week and send you pics as soon as possible. I'm really enthused about this.

If you don't like it, I'll send your money back; that is my own personal 'policy'...LOL but nobody has ever wanted the money back - they love their art, and actually I have asked local people if I could borrow their artwork just for a day to show it at festivals etc, and they don't want to let go of it!!!!

I accept major credit cards through PayPal, using [Only registered and activated users can see links. Either login above or Register Now] . I also accept Personal Checks, Money Orders, and Cashier's Checks.

You can even contact me through the website by email/contact form.

Hey Jeff, I forgot to ask you in the email I sent you - let me know when you have mailed the photos, so I can look for them.

Thanks!

I probably won't mail the pictures until next weekend to be perfectly honest.. as I'm on limited time and I have to take the pictures and have them developed yet.

However, I will send you Paypal either tonight or tomorrow (depending on how lazy I am) as I have the cash in the Paypal account.. but I'm getting ready to take off boating for the day.

I will definitely let you know once the pics are mailed and will paypal you tonight or tomorrow.

I'm not at all concerned about not liking the picture... as from what I have looked at via your link.. I'm completely impressed.

Just a few days left! My art table is getting covered up, that's why I haven't been online posting on DOD much lately...

If you need information about how to go about ordering your portrait, contact me now at [Only registered and activated users can see links. Either login above or Register Now]

Deadline is August 31st to get the orders in, and I'd love to do your pet's portrait !
