Commissioned Paintings
A commissioned oil or watercolour painting is a truly meaningful gift—thoughtful, personal, and made to last a lifetime.
Capture a cherished moment, a beloved pet, a special place, or an important memory in a one-of-a-kind work of art created especially for someone you love.
More than a beautiful gift, a commissioned painting becomes a timeless treasure: a lasting reminder of what’s special to the heart, meant to be enjoyed and passed down for generations.
Why Commission an Artwork?
Custom paintings make unique and personalized gifts that will move souls and touch hearts.
My clients have given these cherished artworks to their loved ones for many different occasions, including:
- Christmas
- Wedding Anniversaries
- Birthdays
- In memory of a lost pet
- Housewarming events
- Engagement parties
- In memory of a special place
Everyone’s life events are different and unique, and your imagination is the limit!
Pricing, Process and Timeline
The current base price for a commissioned painting is $1.1 per square inch. $1.2 for paintings with very complex subject matter. A 20% deposit is required before work begins.
Oil paintings can be done on a gallery stretched canvas or on loose canvas if you want to frame it in a flat frame. Watercolour works are done on high quality Arches paper.
Depending on the size and complexity of the painting, work can take 3 and more weeks.
Continuous feedback loop and communications ensure that the work is done to your satisfaction.
What makes giving Art so special?
Throughout my artist career, I have been very privileged to use my talent to be able to create gifts of art that stir emotions in the most beautiful ways…
I have been thanked many times by my clients, because my paintings have caused the recipients of these Art gifts to cry tears of joy, tears of happiness, or tears of love – driven by their (often) hidden emotions being let free.
Many hugs have resulted, many kisses have been given, and even more smiles have been put on people’s faces!
… and this makes me happy…
Let’s chat!
Send me a message with your ideas or question, and let’s discuss what you have in mind and how we can make it super special for the person and occasion you have in mind!
If you are not sure which reference photo to select or have several photos which you want to combine into one painting, I will be happy to work with you to understand your requirements.
