Commissions

Welcome! I’m currently accepting commissions and have provided the below information as a guide to my process.

Let’s work together to make art that is uniquely yours!


It starts with an idea.

 

Have a favorite place in mind? Maybe it’s that vacation you never want to forget or maybe it’s the place you walk everyday to destress (hello happy place!). Or maybe it’s the animal that always gives you pause when you see them in their natural environment or a family pet. Whatever you find meaningful, I welcome the opportunity to create something for you that truly reflects YOU.


Your involvement in the process.

 

We will work together to decide on an image or idea, color palette, and dimensions to ensure the final piece fits you and your space. From there, I’ll send you a digital sketch for approval before moving on to the final acrylic painting. While I’m immersed in the painting process I’ll provide you with updates so that you can follow along with the journey of your piece and will provide you with images/videos of the final work for your approval. I respect that commissioning a painting is a huge exercise in trust and want you to feel like you have a voice in the process!


Investment.

 

The commission cost is heavily dependent on the size of the project. With the additional time, energy, communication, and creativity that goes into completing a commissioned painting, there is an increase in price compared to my other work. Below is my current commission price list and the minimum commission price is $100. Shipping and framing costs are calculated separately. A non-refundable 50% commission cost will be due upon signing the agreement, which is finalized after we’ve had the chance to discuss the project and before I start the creative work, which begins with a digital sketch. The remaining 50% is due before the work is shipped.

Price List:*

6”x8” = $300         18”x24” = $1400

8”x10” = $400       20”x30” = $1600

11”x14” = $600      24”x36” = $1800

16”x16” = $950      30”x30” = $2000

16”x20” = $1000   36”x48” = $2700

20”x20” = $1200

*Price may vary depending on choice of substrate (ex., a 1.5” deep canvas is more expensive than a flat wood panel) and complexity of work (ex., more creativity/time will be required if I need to merge multiple reference pictures into one piece).

This list is not comprehensive so if you are looking for a different size, let’s talk!


Timeline.

 

The timeline is dependent on my current workload as well as the size and complexity of the painting. Acrylic paint dries quickly but will take a week or so to cure once it is varnished before I can ship it safely. If you’re considering a commission as a gift, please keep this in mind and communicate your timing needs up front so that I can confirm if it’ll be ready in time. The expected timeline for completion will be clearly defined at the time of agreement.


Shipping.

 

Depending on your location, we will coordinate shipping or delivery based on the size of your painting. I ship via USPS internationally, but can also coordinate local pickup in Westford, MA. The client is responsible for shipping costs.


Framing.

 

While some pieces don’t require framing, artwork looks incredibly beautiful framed! I offer add-on frame consulting and service for an additional fee. The benefit? You’ll receive your piece ready to hang. Amazing!!


Commission Inquiry.

 

Buying art (especially if you’re a first timer) can be intimidating and confusing, but it doesn’t have to be. I’ll be accessible and clear throughout the process and welcome questions along the way. The process will be both exciting and rewarding, and it all starts with a conversation, so reach out and let’s talk!
