You might be wanting to get some art commissioned and be wondering how much is commission art? Every artist has their own way to price commissioned art, but I will share how I do mine. How much is commission art and how I run art commissions in this blog post, keep reading.
How Much is Commission Art?
I offer different types of art commissions, and because they are so different. There are different prices, depending on the type of art commission you want.
I offer both acrylic painting and cyanotype art commissions.
Cyanotype Commissions
Please note that I only offer cyanotype commissions between the months of April to September because that's when there is the most natural sunlight where I live.
I’m based in Ontario, Canada, and for my cyanotype art commissions, I use local plants that I have access to. Below is a list of plants available for use in your custom cyanotype:
Palm leaf
Pine branch
Buttercups
Queen Anne’s Lace
Cedar branch
Daisy
Maple leaf
Oak leaf
Wheat
If you’re interested in a different plant for your cyanotype, feel free to reach out! Some plants/flowers may not work well in cyanotypes, and I can help guide you in making the best choice.
To see examples of my cyanotypes, click the button below!
Art Commissions – Word Options
You have the option to add text to your cyanotype art commission. The font choice and size are standard, as shown below. You can select your word(s) and choose the placement—either at the top, bottom, or both. For the 5”x7” cyanotype, there is space for only two words, one at the top and one at the bottom. If you would like more text, please contact me using the form at the bottom of the page.
Art Commissions – Size Options
I currently offer two size options for cyanotypes:
5”x7” - $60
8.5”x11” -$100

The artwork can have sentimental meaning to you and can incorporate photographs, recipe cards, letters, notes, your grandmother's names, etc.

How does an Art Commission Work?
When I am doing an art commission, I will send you a quick survey so that I can best understand what exactly you are looking for. I will also ask you to send a couple of photos of where you would like the artwork to hang so that I can think about the colours that I'm adding, especially in an acrylic painting that I am doing.
We will have a discussion. We can have a quick zoom call or send emails back-and-forth, or a quick phone call whatever you prefer. Especially if you have questions and you are looking for a really specific idea for me to create.
Next, I will send you a contract to review that will discuss when the artwork will be completed by. It will also finalize the price of the art commission, and I will clearly explain a written explanation of the type of artwork that I will be completing for you, including the size, the materials I am using, the colour palette, etc..
After you sign the contract, you will return the signed contract back to me.
You will pay for the first half of the art commission upfront before I start, and then you will pay for the second half of the art commission after it is finished. Or you can pay for the full artwork upfront.
Once I have received the total payment of the art commission, I will ship it to you and send you a tracking number as well for convenience. Or if you are local to Muskoka Ontario, we can arrange a pick up for you to come and pick up your commission piece of art or I can hand deliver it to you as well.
Again if you have any questions or concerns about my commissioned art process feel free to fill out the form at the bottom of this page and thank you so much for considering me to create a piece of commission art for you and your family.
