Commission work

Commission a Custom Painting

I’m honored to take on commission work that resonates with my creative style and storytelling approach. Whether it’s a meaningful place, a cherished memory, or a heartfelt gift for someone you love, I approach every commission with care, attention, and a deep commitment to quality.

Each painting is crafted using archival-quality watercolor materials on fine art paper, ensuring your piece will last for generations.

What You’ll Receive

When you commission a painting with me, you’ll receive:

  • 🎨 An original watercolor artwork on 11×14 inch fine art paper (or custom size we agree on)
  • 🖨️ A professionally edited fine art Giclée print of your piece, printed on acid-free archival paper using pigment-based inks
  • 💾 Digital files of the artwork in high resolution, formatted for standard print sizes – including 5×7, 8×10, 9×12, 11×14, and 16×20 – so you can easily reprint your painting for gifts or use it in digital keepsakes.

All pieces are signed and packaged with care. If this is a gift, I’m happy to include a handwritten note or certificate of authenticity.

The Commission Process

  1. Inquiry: Send me a message with your idea, photo reference(s), and what you’re hoping to capture.
  2. Deposit: A 50% non-refundable deposit secures your commission spot and covers the early creative process.
  3. Creation: I’ll keep you updated as your piece comes to life — typically within 2–4 weeks depending on complexity.
  4. Approval & Delivery: Once approved, you’ll receive a link to complete payment and the final artwork will be delivered with any prints or digital files included.
