COMMISSION WORK
Together lets make your dream, favourite photograph or vivid memory a reality and create a unique west coast art piece for your home. I've really gown to love the whole collaborative experience of breathing life into clients dreams throughout my career. With nearly a decade of commission work experience for clients stretching from Vancouver Island to California I offer affordable rates and shipping to anywhere in the world. Here's a checklist of what I need from you:
First Step
1. A clear concept/idea/photos/description of your future painting, feel free to email or call me.
2. A budget, estimated size, shape, whether you want it custom framed (view examples in my portfolio), and your time frame.
3. Decide whether you will allow me to make it a part of my collection and make prints of it. This will allow us to negotiate a cheaper price and significantly reduce the overall quote. I also offer a lifetime of quality canvas and paper prints for your family and friends at cost pricing.
4. I ask for a 50% deposit of the total price up front.
Second Step
1. I will do a concept sketch and send to you by email with a paragraph explaining the proposed layout, symbolism/intention and color scheme.
2. I will paint and give you a proposed date of completion and arrival by shipping. I prefer the finished piece to be a surprise on arrival, but if you really want to view it before hand photos can be arranged.
3. I will ship it after the total has been paid through e-transfer or my website. See Customer Service section in my website footer for info regarding shipping, privacy, refunds, and FAQ's.
