How do I commission a portrait?

Get in touch! Please complete the form below, letting me know your thoughts about the type of project you are considering (individual portrait; corporate portrait; family portrait, etc.), as well as the size of painting you have in mind.

I am currently based in London and portrait sittings usually take place in my studio in Battersea; in some circumstances, home visits are available. Please advise as to your location when enquiring.  

When I have received your enquiry, I will get back to you with information regarding my current waiting list, and to open discussions as to the best way to proceed with your portrait commission.

I treat each client and sitter as an individual with unique circumstances and requirements. If you have any questions about my portrait commission process, please don’t hesitate to ask.

I look forward to hearing from you.

*Please be aware* You will find me only on this website and on my Instagram @ruthfittonportraits. I do not have any additional pages, and I am not on BlueSky, X or Tiktok; any messages sent through these channels are not from me. Additionally, please be alert to fake email addresses, and note that I will never contact anyone unexpectedly, offering money for use of their images. Thank you.

*An extra note* I am currently receiving a high volume of spam messages. For security reasons, please be very specific about your enquiry. I will not be responding to vague or generic messages. I will also be requiring a video call with all potential clients before any details are exchanged. Thank you!
