Artwork Commissions

Artwork commissions are a great way to have art that you love in your home. You are able to personalize the art to fit your home, your style and your life. I only take on a few artwork commissions per year, so if you are interested in having a piece of artwork commissioned by me make sure to contact me soon! Learn more about artwork commissions below!

With artwork commissions you can choose the colours you would like and the size of the artwork to fit perfectly in your home. 

If you choose to have an artwork commission done by me you can choose to frame the artwork yourself or to have framing included with your artwork commission. 

Commissioned artwork that I do is made on paper for cyanotypes and some mixed media pieces are also on paper. 

Some artwork commissions I do are also done on canvas. It really depends on the type of commissioned artwork you are looking for!

This is a piece of art that was commissioned by me to do using her grandmother’s recipe cards and photos.

How do Artwork Commissions Work?

If you would like to have an artwork commission done please contact me using the contact form at the bottom of this blog post. 

You can share ideas that you had in mind like your size, colours, and materials you would like me to use like a cyanotype or a mixed media painting. 

I will reply to you and ask any other additional questions I need to gather and make you the best artwork commission as possible. 

We will decide on what you are looking for and agree on a date to have the work completed along with the size of the work, colours used and materials/techniques used, as well as any other special requests. 

Once we agree on everything I will send you a contract to finalize everything. You will pay a 50% deposit and you will pay the other 50% when the artwork commission is done.

Want to Have a Piece of Art Commissioned By Me?

Want to have a piece of art commissioned by me? Read on to learn more about the process of getting a piece of art commissioned. As an artist I have been doing art commissions for friends, family and even people I don't know that well for several years.

Creating a successful art commission can be a lengthy process but I have come up with a list of tips to create a faster and more positive process for both the artist and the client. I have 7 things to consider if you are wanting to get an art commission done and 7 things for an artist to consider when offering art commissions.

As a client getting a piece of art commissioned

• Communicate what you want - be clear and specific if you have a vision in mind

• Trust your gut-if you don't feel comfortable with anything -then don't go ahead with it

• Ask for a price estimate if it is not provided to you

• Figure out the size of the work you want

• Figure out where you will put that piece of art -this can help determine the dimensions and also the style or colours you like - It is helpful for the artist to see a photograph of your space and know what you like (everyone has their own unique design style)

• Send inspiration  -whether it's a photograph, colour swatches or a sample of fabric for the curtains that will hang next to the artwork - anything is helpful

• Make sure you have done your research- Do you like the artist's work?

As an artist commissioning a piece of art I…

• Give a price estimate that includes the size of the work, materials used, any custom finishes that are requested and possible shipping charges

• Give an estimated deadline of when the piece will be finished-I take on 6 projects a year usually you will have a commission within 2 months -unless specified by yourself

• Communicate clearly and ask questions- we will have a meeting or exchange emails to make sure you are happy with the end result

• Create a sketch or mock up during the consultation process - see my ideas before committing - I will send you progress pictures if requested!

• I will ask for photos of the work hanging in your space

• I will send you a contract that explains payment and delivery of the artwork

Interested in Having a Piece of Art Commissioned By Me?

Can I apply watercolour paint or ink to your handmade paper?

      

No the paper is intended to be sold and displayed as is and has not been sealed to be able to have a liquid like a paint or ink applied. The handmade paper is not meant for painting, drawing or writing on.

Does your art come framed?

My art ships unframed allowing me to be able to offer free shipping in Canada and the U.S and allowing you to be able to select the best frame to suit your personal design style.

You can purchase the same or similar frames in your house or choose to invest and have it professionally framed. For my artwork I personally suggest simple frames like white or a light-toned natural wood since a lot of my art is softer, neutral and light coloured.
