The ideal way to create the perfect art for your home 

Finding the right piece of artwork for your home can be a challenge. You’re looking for an artwork that has a certain colour palette, size and style. All of which will compliment your unique space and add something special to your home. 

The perfect solution to this is to commission a specific artwork that will meet your desires. I love to create one off original artworks for clients, that I know, will give them what they’re looking for. Even better, the process is incredibly simple, and I will work with you throughout the process to ensure the piece is just right for you.

Commission Price List - as of Jan 2022 

Details 

Materials: I use high quality Matisse Acrylic paints, and other artist quality mixed media materials. Works are sealed with varnish to protect the painting. 

Canvas: I use quality primed canvases. Depending on the size of your work and where the artwork is to be shipped to, it may be stretched or unstretched (details below). Any stretched canvases may be ¾”, or 1 ½”. If it is a smaller work, or you are planning to frame it, I would recommend ½” thickness, if the artwork is over 30” x 30” then I would recommend a thickness of 1½”.

Sides: The sides of the piece can be painted solid white, or any other colour. I can also continue the background colour onto the sides. This is all your choice. 

Hanging: If you have opted for a stretched canvas I will install hanging hardware on the back of your painting so it is ready to hang. If unstretched, you will need to find a local framer to stretch the canvas for you.

Shipping: Shipping costs are not included in the commission price. I can ship the artwork to you, or you can collect the painting from me privately. Unstreched works arrive in a sturdy shipping tube, and stretched works will arrive in a cardboard box.

Framing: All prices are quoted without frames, if you would like your piece to be framed I can arrange that for you, prices will vary.
