COMMISSION RESERVATION
I am so excited about your interest in a commissioned painting!
The art you choose to hang in your home is a deeply personal decision, and
I am honored to be a part of that process.
WHY YOU WILL LOVE THE PROCESS…
EXCLUSIVITY: One guarantee with your commissioned painting is that it is fully yours. Your custom piece will never be used for print reproductions or any other products. As the buyer, I give you the exclusive right to enjoy this painting for yourself. This painting is yours and yours alone to enjoy in your home.
DETAILS: Each painting is created using high-quality oil paints on paper or fine-art gallery-wrapped canvas. Paintings come in standard sizes and proportions, but if you have an ultra-specific size requirement, I can have surfaces custom-built to fit your exact needs. Framing options are available! I work with a local framer who can create any size of floater frame in a variety of colors and finishes. Your painting will arrive to you ready to hang.
SIZES & PRICES: At the time, I am only accepting commissions with a minimum size of 24x36 valued at $1,700. A $200 non-refundable deposit is required at the time of booking to secure your spot. This deposit will contribute towards the final price of the painting. Once booked, I can provide exact pricing for your specific size requirements, as well as additional services such as framing, shipping, and/or installation. See my 2024 Pricing Guide here. It is worth noting that commissioned paintings are priced slightly higher than paintings in a collection because of the high level of attention and care I give to you and your custom painting!
COMMISSIONS GET SPECIAL TREATMENT!
I take the commission process quite seriously, and want to involve you in the process as much as possible. Below are a few insights into my process that will help me create a painting to make all of your painting dreams come true. I can't wait to work with you!
I work from pictures. If you have a special place or a specific view you would like me to paint, send over that picture and that will be my guide! However, a photo from you is not necessarily required. Please no Google photos! :)
I paint landscapes! That includes open fields, mountains, beaches…any outdoor scene with land and sky. If you are looking for a portrait of a person, pet or home, I would love to refer you to a talent artist who can execute that better than I ever will!
One of the most helpful things you can do as the client is provide your favorite pieces from my portfolio that you are most drawn to. My painting style includes a variety of “looks” so if there is a specific painting, or group of paintings, that you are most drawn to, I can recreate that painting as closely as possible. As it is with original art, though, no two paintings are alike! So I will paint according to your color and style specifications as closely as possible.
In order to protect the work of my fellow artists, I cannot recreate another artist's work, but I would love to know which painting of mine that you are most drawn to.
While I cannot guarantee an exact finish date, if you have a deadline you need to meet, I would love to make that happen! I will begin each painting in the month you choose during booking.
I will email you as the painting progresses and send a few photos along the way. My hope is that it will allow you to have a say in what happens next or what changes need to be made. For example: add more of a color, add less of a color, add more contrast, etc. You are part of this process, and I want to make sure you get exactly what you want.
This non-refundable deposit secures your commission reservation spot! This amount will contribute to the final balance of the final cost of your painting. Once reserved, we will communicate via email about the details of your custom piece. Click here to read more about the process!
