A collaborative experience from start to finish.

Every commission begins with a conversation. Whether you're celebrating a milestone, honoring someone you love, or bringing a personal vision to life, I'll work closely with you to create a painting that feels uniquely yours.

Throughout the process, I'll share sketches and progress photos, keeping you involved from the first idea to the finished artwork. My goal is not only to create a painting you'll treasure, but to make the entire experience enjoyable, collaborative, and meaningful.

  • Let's Talk

    We'll discuss your ideas, reference photos, size, timeline, and budget to find the best approach for your project.

  • Painting Begins

    Once everything is approved, I begin painting and share progress updates along the way.

  • Final Touches

    You'll have the opportunity to review the painting before it's finished so we can make sure everything feels just right.

  • Ready to Enjoy

    Your finished artwork is professionally packaged and shipped with care.

Frequently Asked Questions

Have a question that's not answered here? I'd love to hear about your project and help you explore the possibilities.

1. How much does a commissioned painting cost?

Pricing is based primarily on the size of the painting, with adjustments for especially complex compositions or custom requests. Please refer to the Investment section above for starting prices, or contact me for a personalized quote.

2. How long does the process take?

The timeline depends on the size of the painting and my current commission schedule. Most commissions are completed within several weeks to a few months. If you have a specific deadline, let me know and I'll do my best to accommodate it.

3. Can you work from photographs?

Absolutely. Most commissions begin with reference photos provided by the client. I can also combine elements from multiple photos to create a composition that best tells your story.

4. Can you create a painting from multiple reference photos?

Yes. In fact, many commissions combine several photographs into one cohesive composition. Whether it's bringing family members together, recreating a meaningful place, or capturing a special memory, I'll work with you to create a painting that couldn't exist from a single photo alone.

5. Can I commission a painting if I don't live nearby?

Yes! I work with collectors throughout the United States and internationally. We can discuss your project by email, phone, or video call, and your finished painting will be professionally packaged and shipped to you.

6. What subjects do you paint?

I create portraits, family and group paintings, memorial tributes, figurative artwork, pet portraits, landscapes, and conceptual pieces. If you have an idea, I'd be happy to discuss it.

7. How do payments work?

A 50% deposit is required to reserve your commission on my schedule, with the remaining balance due before delivery. I'll provide all of the details once we've discussed your project.

8. How do I get started?

Simply reach out using the contact form below or send me an email with a little information about your idea. You don't need to have everything figured out—that's what our initial conversation is for.
