COMMISSIONS

I am excited to venture into this territory…commissions. It is inspired by my love of hearing people’s stories. Watching their faces get animated as they describe sensations, details, ways something looked or smelled or sounded. I am not a realistic painter. I will not capture a beautiful vista or your children’s faces in intimate and exact detail. But I will let your emotions about your experience, your family, your dreams sink into my skin and that absorption will come out in my painting for you. That I guarantee.

Below are my commission needs. If these criteria do not work for you, I am happy to chat and either figure out a solution that will work for both of us or refer you to someone who will give you what you desire.

  1. I am an intuitive painter, meaning I will not work from sketches or pre-planned maps. Rather, I will work with your story in mind, with colors you love, images and shapes from nature or your day-to-day life that you might be drawn to, with the emotions that you most want to feel or desire…remember beauty is in all of our emotions:)

  2. Please refer to my previous work on my website. If our tastes are not aligned, I am not the painter for you. I want to paint a piece that resonates with you, but I will not bend my methods, approach, or abstract style to fit a type of painting that I cannot create.

  3. I will not work smaller than 18” x 18” and that size starts at $550. I will work up to 48” x 48” and that is $3900.

  4. I am only taking four commissions a year to allow for other facets of my business to grow.

  5. A 50% deposit is required before I begin your painting. The additional 50% is due upon completion and before the painting ships. Shipping will be calculated and invoiced separately.

  6. When your piece is complete I will send you photos for feedback. At this point, I will not make drastic changes to the piece but will add/subtract color, create more of the already established pattern or shapes, add more line element, etc. It is important to me that you get a piece that feels like you and also feels like me.

    Any other questions, please ask them below. I will schedule a time to chat via phone so I can hear your story and vision and really get a sense for what you are looking for.

This is exciting and I am so ready to take this journey with you!
