Commissions
A painting is not just a memory, but a memory enhanced and brought to life with colors, textures and feeling. Every commission is created with utmost care to your memories and loved ones. I create paintings based off of photographs. My paintings are not photographs themselves. Your one of a kind piece with have a painterly quality to it.
What I offer:
How long does the painting take to create?
The processing time depends on the amount of commissions I have booked. The typical processing time takes 3-4 months. For a faster processing time an additional fee may be applied to guarantee it's completion by an agreed upon date.
What is the best size for my painting?
I offer different sizes to best meet your financial needs. However, some pieces are better suited for a larger canvas and all portrait sizes are contingent on the photograph reference.

What is included?
Your painting will be created with oil paints. Oil paints provide rich colors and textures. Once the painting is completed I will email you with an image of the work to be approved. After the piece dries a UV protective varnish will be applied to seal and preserve the pigments. I will then attach hanging hardware to the back of your canvas so that it is immediately ready to hang in your house. The edges will be painted as well to give the piece a finish feel as it hangs in your home.
