Commission a Piece of Art
-
The occasion: Is there a special occasion? Is this for you or a loved one? Do you have a deadline?
-
The subject: Is there a particular bird or animal you want me to paint? Have you already seen a painting you like that I have done before? Do you have a clear idea of what you want your subject to be doing?
-
The colours and mood: Is there a particular room that this is going in? Are there colours you especially like? What kind of mood do you want - something light and uplifting, or mysterious and moody?
-
The size and shape: What size and shape do you want the painting to be? Square, vertical or horizontal rectange?
-
The budget: What is your budget? See below for guidelines to my pricing.
How Long For A Commission?
Commissions take between 2-5 weeks to complete depending on demand.
Framing is generally left to you so that you can select something that suits your style and budget; however, if you would like me to organise having your painting professionally framed and sent to you then please allow a further 4-6 weeks.
This means a time-frame of around 1 month unframed, and 2 months framed for the UK.
