Go to the Commission Inquiry page and sign up to "Get the commission email" with everything you need to know to plan your perfect painting or drawing, including the commission price chart. Please note: This is separate from my general mailing list, you will receive a special one time email when you sign up.

Choose the right size for your space and budget. For paintings, you can give me color ideas by sending interior paint colors, fabric swatches, or photos for paintings. For drawings, send me the picture or pictures that you would like to use for reference. Look through the site and tell me the titles of the pieces you are attracted to, but might not be the right size, and I can help you with the rest. Your order begins when you have officially chosen a size and made your deposit.

For paintings, as long as you like my current work style and allow me my fair share of artistic control, I am happy to accommodate your thoughts and a few edits. For drawings, unfortunately there is no wiggle room. I cannot alter a drawing after I have begun. I will send progress photos so you can express your opinions or questions.

You can pay in two installments—50% deposit up front to begin your order & the remaining half when your painting or drawing is complete and you are 100% pleased with the finished piece.

I work closely with clients while a painting is in progress to ensure that you are completely satisfied with the color, balance, mood, & direction of the piece. Refunds on drawings is not optional. You are not obligated to purchase your painting, and if you decide that it is not for you or your space, you will be able to use your 50% deposit as store credit to apply to another painting. However, this has never happened before, so hopefully you would not be the first.

Generally 4-6 weeks for completion of most paintings, and up to 3 months on pencil drawings, depending on the season. I do love a good deadline so if you have something specific coming up, depending on how many commissions I’m currently working on, I will do my best to get it to you by then.
