Helvetica is a city of the Arts - "Whether in our architecture, our bustling city life or historic museums there is a non-relenting sense that people here have an eye, not just for the functional, but for the inherent beauty of enjoying and being passionate about everything they do.

Our culture does not stop there though. Thanks to the Helvetican School of Arts, portraits have become a luxury available to a new layer of society: Patrons of the Arts. Our trusted patrons, loyal members who have served the Helvetican City-State diligently, may have a portrait of themselves commissioned for their own use. The school's artists perfectly capture the face and dress to provide an exquisite and incredibly realistic picture of the patron."

- Heliat, Doge of Helvetica
After months of closure due to shifted priorities within the City State, the School of Arts is now open again and will consider commissions for other connoisseurs from far away lands. Below are examples of some of some current patrons who have been immortalised by the artists of the Helvetican School of Arts:​

While the fine arts cannot be rushed nor the creative spark of an artist summoned up like a jinn,
Helvetican School of Arts is currently open to commissions
If interested in becoming a patron of the arts please write in with a letter below and your commission will duly be addressed. Commissions intended as surprise gifts for unknowing friends or idols can be sent in via more secretive forms of postage (namely pm's) Commissions ~5 silver
 
Me Gusta! That is to say, I like them :)
Does the letter have a format/info needed.

Cheers Mech! Not as such, but obviously the more source material and/or description the more the portrait assumes the image the patron has in mind ;) and by source material I mean images with remarks like "I like the eye colours of this image" "the dimples on this image please" or "see how the eyebrow does this little twirly thing on this image" ... things like that I can then take into consideration and make my "photoshopian" brushstrokes (how do you make photoshop sound medieval? haha) accordingly
