Commissions
Are you thinking about commissioning a piece? It’s easy. Let’s walk through what you need to know.
Examples of commissioned pieces. These live all across the U.S.!
The basics:
- You’ll send me a note saying you’re interested in a commission by filling out the form below and providing a reference photo.
- I’ll email or call you back as soon as I can. We’ll get clear on the painting and timeline. Sometimes I can turn a painting around very quickly depending on my availability and the complexity of the piece, or sometimes I’m months out. We’ll discuss and set a schedule.
- I’ll send you a written agreement detailing the commission description, painting schedule, pricing, and payment timeline. You pay 50% of the agreed upon price upon initiating the commission (I accept check, cash, Venmo, or credit card).
- I’ll get to painting, send you periodic updates so you can see the work in progress, and then – voila! Your commission is done. I deliver or ship to you (included with your commission).

Cost:
- Tiny acrylic on canvas paintings (up to 8″x10″) start at $350.
- Standard sized acrylic on canvas paintings (starting at 12″x12″) start at $500.
- Custom projects are priced out accordingly.
Pricing is negotiated per piece, because no two paintings are alike. Generally commissions run between $3-3.50/square inch. The cost includes all materials and varies depending on painting size and complexity. All packing/shipping is included.
Bear in mind:
I don’t do portraits, except silhouettes (trust me). I’ll paint structures, although they are tricky because of sooo many straight lines so I will price accordingly. I’ll even do the occasional dog. But if we’re being real, my best work is (surprise) landscapes.
I also work exclusively from a photo reference. I’ve provided the option to upload multiple photos so you can include supplementary images to help me understand the primary reference (lighting, color, context) but if you upload more than one photo tell me which one you would like me to use for the painting.
