Please remember at all times that you are being quoted for an Oil Painting of the highest possible standards, our work can-not and should-not ever be compared to the inferior work created by large Chinese factories, our work is painted by world class artists within their specialty, nothing here is mass produced " we do not sell products, we sell Art "

Ruby Cavalier, as you would expect, takes a somewhat different approach to this dilemma and creates truly original and beautiful heirlooms that also stand alone as pieces of fine art. Utilising and matching the skills of several talented and insightful portrait painters, we seek to not only capture the essence of the subject, but also place the sitter into an appropriate and relevant time frame, scene and/or costume. Our goal is to deliver to you, the client, something of true classical beauty and value.

The client was also a connoisseur of early 15th century Italian art by artists such as Caravaggio, and wanted something in that style, if possible. After consultation with the client, a gifted amateur photographer, we asked him to send us a photo of him and his daughter in an appropriate pose.
