Hi Ngaire -
Not yet, but hope to this year. My charity auction winner is the parent of a child at the local prestigious (read:money) private school for this area. Once I get that portrait done to my satisfaction and hopefully, hers, then I will be checking with them about contributing to an auction. As far as commissions via cold call- don't know how that would work. It seems that this business is word of mouth. One thing the local small business administration wants me to try is to give short talks for groups. Maybe a short demo plus oil portrait samples available for inspection (with original photo so they can see that there is a likeness) at a parent-teacher organization meeting, plus brochures to take home?

That seem's easier enough. Have you ever contacted a private school to cold call for commissions?
