Frequently Asked Questions
Do you accept commissions for custom artwork?
Yes! I accept commissions for work in my style - take a look at my past work on the Available Paintings and Fine Art Prints pages to get an idea of what that looks like, and submit your idea through the Contact page! Commissions are priced according to the size of the painting. I will only accept commissions that align with my style and that I am confident I can do an excellent job with.
How does the commission process work?
It begins by submitting your idea via my Contact page (subject, size, requested completion date). From there I can quote you a price and develop a sketch or digital mockup for your approval. At that point I will ask for a 50% deposit, with the remaining cost due when the item is ready to ship, or be picked up. The usual completion time is 4-6 weeks depending on the size and complexity of the work, but this can vary during the year (i.e. it will take longer in the pre-holiday season).
Can I get that print bigger (or smaller)?
The short answer is maybe! It depends on the piece and there are size limitations based on the size of the original. Let me know what you have in mind through the Contact page and I can let you know the options!
Where can I see more of your work?
