Love my work but looking for a painting that tells your story and fits perfectly in your space? A commissioned piece might be just the thing.

About the Process

Commissioning a custom work is a very personal thing and I love creating art that fits seemlessly into your space.

Once a size is chosen, and the color palette and basic imagery are determined, I will send you a price estimate, commission contract, and then we can get started. Throughout our work together, we can communicate via email, phone, or face-to-face.

I take a very limited number of commissions each year. If you're interested in working together, please fill out the form below so I can get a better understanding of your commission request and get you added to my calendar.

Questions to ask yourself

1. Where is the painting going to hang? Your home, your office, a client’s home, or a public space?
2. Do you know the approximate size of the painting you need? If you’re unsure, I can help you figure out the best dimensions for your wall.
3. What paintings in my collections do you like, or are you inspired by?
4. What attributes of those paintings do you like? Bold brushstrokes, colors, sky, water, imagery, etc.

Common Questions

1. How long does it take to create a painting? Commission pieces take 4 to 6 weeks to complete from the start date. The time frame is also dependent on size and if there are any other clients ahead of you.
   
2. Payment and additions? Once the price is decided a 50% deposit is required to hold your spot on the calendar. There is an additional 20% fee added for commissioned paintings. (For example, my original 30"x40" paintings are 3600. Plus a 20% commission fee of 720 and the new total is 4320.) An invoice will be e-mailed to you and you can pay online with a credit card. Final payment is due once the painting is complete.
   
3. Do you offer framing? Yes! I work with a local woodworker to make custom maple and walnut float frames for my paintings. We can add on framing if this is something you are interested in.
4. Do you ship or deliver? Both. There is an additional cost for shipping that is not included in the painting price. Studio pick-up is also an option.
   
5. Do you hang or install the painting? No, I don’t, but I will provide everything you need to do so. All paintings are wired and ready to hang.
