Commissioning the artist...
Fr. Robert-Chas. Bengry’s work includes library paintings and heraldic designs for reproduction. His art is normally hand-painted with gouache on watercolour paper, with gold leaf and shell gold where appropriate. Father is also able to provide a digital version of the painted arms for reproduction purposes (such as on letterhead and business cards). Lately Father has (due to time constraints) been creating hand drawn emblazonments which are then coloured digitally. In this case, the final piece is provided digitally only. Fr. Bengry only accepts ecclesiastical commissions at the moment.
Fr. Bengry’s price-list (in Canadian Dollars, not including taxes) follows below. All prices are subject to change. A 50% downpayment is required before work begins. Prices are subject to change without notice. Check back from time to time for promotional prices.
