COMMISSIONS
Collaborate with me on a creation of your own!
I’m currently only able to take on a limited number of commissions due to family responsibilities, so I have to be selective. That said, I’d love to hear your ideas! If it’s something that aligns with my mission, or that I can do well, I will absolutely let you know.
WHAT I NEED TO KNOW
I
SIZE & USE
What is this being designed for? Is this a book cover, a portrait for your home, a cover for a board game, or some other venture? Sketch, black & white, full color?
So that I can begin working on strong compositions, what would the anticipated size or aspect ratio be?
II
CONCEPT
Are there any objectives or considerations for this piece? What should the feel or message of the sketch or painting be? Are there any particular colors or meaning that should be emphasized?
III
FIGURES
Give me a general idea - you don't have to have all of these answers yet: what figures will be in the painting? Is there a story behind the scene? Are there any reference images available? Would you like to arrange a photo shoot with me to get the right reference shots?
WHAT HAPPENS AFTER YOUR COMMISSION IS ACCEPTED?
I pour a lot of time and heart into each commission to make it as meaningful and well-crafted as possible. Some paintings come together quickly, and others need months to unfold. If you have a specific date in mind, please let me know in your initial message so I can plan accordingly.
To reserve a spot on my commission schedule, I ask for a 10% deposit. A second payment of 40% is due when I begin painting, and the final 50% is due once the piece is finished.
I like to stay in close contact throughout the process. I’ll share images or short videos as the painting progresses, and I welcome your thoughts and feedback along the way. I allow 2 reworks after a painting is finished.
Shipping costs will be determined once the painting is complete. I strongly recommend insuring the full value of the artwork, which may add to the shipping cost, but helps ensure peace of mind during transit. Frame is not included in pricing.
