Interested in having me do a commission? Here’s an idea of the process:

I work with you to create a piece of art for your home, office or commercial building. My entire portfolio is at your disposal as a springboard for ideas and design. You can choose colors, elements from my previous works of art, blue sky or yellow, whatever suits your fancy or works in your space. Custom sizes from small to very large are available. Prices vary with the specifics of the commission, but to give you a rough idea, a 24” x 30” work might cost about $1,600. and a 36” by 48”  panel might cost approximately $3,800.

The commission process takes time and usually involves quite a bit of sharing ideas and images back and forth between myself and the client. To give you some idea of that process, here’s a testimonial from a client who commissioned me to add an image of his house to an existing painting:

“After learning from you that the painting we selected from your web site was available we spent several evenings imagining how it was going to look in our new room. The idea of adding the image of our house into your existing work was exciting to us and we were pleased that you agreed to consider doing it.  My expectations were high because I wanted you to include all of the architectural design elements of our house including its landscape design plus its setting in the woods.

Your patient sharing of ideas and house renderings made the design process enjoyable. Your completed artistic interpretation of our house and its perfect placement into your imaginary landscape still amazes me. The level of detail you captured from the dimensional shingles and copper downspouts to the Japanese maples makes me smile. I admire your talent and appreciate your willingness and enthusiasm to work with us to create a painting that will be cherished by us forever. “
