COMMISSIONS

Working together on a commissioned paining is one of the most forfilling parts of my work ..... want a panting then lets do it! I can paint portriat commissions of anything - from families, loved ones, pets or even your car! As well as your favourite, icon, star or band.

How does it work? Well it's really easy! 1. Drop me an email about the painting you have in mind. If it's a personal commission e.g painting of your children email through a few photos, or if it's a band , actor ect email through some of your favourite photos or ask me to look on the web for good photos that I think will work well as a painting. 2. I'll have a play around with the photos, do a few sketches and think about the style and canvas size that might look best. There are five main pop art styles and a range of canvas sizes. If you prefer one the styles or a particular size canvas let me now in the email, see below for the various styles and sizes.

Varations of styles - of course this is art and really anything goes (that looks good!). A common mix is to add splashes of colour to the various styles, two tone with a splash, monotone with a splash, or a backround in a fully different colour to frame the painting. We will discuss all of this when designing the commisioned painting.... whatever looks good we will do!

Size - The smallest canvas availiable is 18" x 14", but usually all commissions are on 40" x 30", 30" x 24" or 30" x 20" as these are good sizes for most houses. This is not to say we cannot go any bigger as I have done paintings up to 5ft x 4ft. Please be aware that size is constrained by delivery companies and the delivery destination. The size is really up to you, some paintings will need a thinner canvas or a wider one, but we can discuss all this while working on the painting together. See the diagram below to help you with your decision.

And that's it, once we have talked through all the ideas for the painting I wiill give you a quote and get the art underway, keeping you up-to-date with it's progress. Once the painting is finished I will send you a photo of it to make sure you are happy with it and then get it wrapped and sent.

Doing these bespoke commissions for you really are a pleasure. The fact that you guys put your trust in me to paint your family, your loved ones, your pets, really is amazing ... and I put my all into every painting. I hope to paint a commission for all of you soon.

Below are a few examples of bespoke portrait commissions I have done. Click on the thumbnail to see the final painting along with the reference photos I used. Enjoy!
