点评:Visited the gallery to get my wife a birthday present as I knew she loved Angus Grants work. After speaking to Angus I realised he could do commissioned paintings. I had a photo of my son piping in Harris which we had framed which I showed Angus and he was confident it would make a great painting. Angus was so enthusiastic and when I said I needed it in about a week said he would do his best. I was amazed within a few days Angus had a first draft which was perfect and captured exactly what we discussed. Asked for some changes from the original photo and he incorporated all my requests in the first draft. Even had it framed in time and my wife absolutely loved it. See attached photo and painting together. Never considered commissioning a painting before especially from such a talented artist like Angus. He made it so easy and was very reasonably priced. Lots of other beautiful things in the gallery and we have bought a few things for ourselves and gifts for others.
翻译:我知道妻子很喜欢 Angus Grant 的作品,所以特意去画廊给她买生日礼物。和 Angus 聊过之后,我意识到他可以接受委托绘画。我有一张儿子在哈里斯吹风笛的照片,我们把它装裱起来,我给 Angus 看了,他相信这张照片会是一幅很棒的画。Angus 非常热情,当我说我需要在一周内完成它时,他说他会尽力而为。令我惊讶的是,Angus 没过几天就拿出了完美的初稿,完全符合我们讨论的内容。我要求对原图进行一些修改,他把我的所有要求都融入到了初稿中。他甚至及时装裱好了,我妻子非常喜欢。请看附件中的照片和画作在一起的样子。我以前从未考虑过委托绘画,尤其是委托像 Angus 这样才华横溢的艺术家创作。他让事情变得如此简单,而且价格非常合理。画廊里还有很多其他漂亮的东西,我们买了一些东西给自己,也买了一些东西送给别人。
