COMMISSION
A commission is a piece of art specifically painted by the artist for a client. A commission can sometimes be very challenging for the artist,while rewarding for the client.
I am often asked to do commissions. Most of those commissions have involved painting a certain place of value to a client such as a cabin, fishing boat, part of a community, favorite fishing river etc. Clients have given me old photos of the home they grew up in and I have used these to recreate scenes that my clients were very pleased with.
I do not do portrait commissions. However, non-specific people may be included in a commissioned piece.
PROCEDURE
After initial discussion with client and gathering of reference material I will provide the client with a sketch which will outline the composition of the painting. Once the client is satisfied with sketch and colour composition I can proceed with the painting. The client will continue to be given regular updates of the painting as it progresses so we can make any adjustments together.
PRICE
The price of a commissioned painting will depend upon the subject, detail, size, and the work to be done with reference material. The commisioned painting will be $500- $2500+ depending on those factors.
The commision will require a 1/3 non refundable downpayment.
RIGHTS
Commissions are non commercial. The client may make copies of the painting for personal use but may not make prints of my work for sale.
