Here is a copy of my contract. It might give a few ideas. Mainly it stipulates:

1) What the cost of the painting will be
2) The size the painting will be
3) When the painting was commissioned
4) Who the painting is for
5) How much I will recieve for the down payment.

Additionally the contract states that
1) The painting is mine, and I am responsible for damages to it, until I am paid
2) At the point I am paid the painting becomes your responsibility
3) The down payment is non-refundable.

My contract, first page:

THE GOAL of both the portrait artist and the client is the creation of a painting which is pleasing, captures the likeness and personality of the subject, and is able to stand on its own merits as a work of art.

* On the average it will take two to three meetings to produce a quality portrait. The first meeting can be either at the subjects home or at the studio of the artist. The basic composition of the portrait (size, pose, format, type of clothing,
tone, background, and lighting) is determined and a series of 60 to 100 photographs are taken. This photo session takes approximately 1
