My Three Commission Styles
Want to commission an artwork for a special present? Would you like your beloved pet or favourite person or scene to grace your wall? Having a background in design, I am a versatile artist and can accommodate most requests. Check out my art commission styles below to help you choose your perfect style.
Traditional
Traditional
Wouldn’t you love to have your favourite view recreated as a painting? I could paint it to your specification.
Photomontage
Photomontage
Using the technique of photo-montage and creativity and some painting, I could make a new quirky picture by collaging some of your favourite pics together to make one unique artwork. I think these make great gifts for e,g, 50th Birthdays etc.
Warhol
Warhol style
Love bright colours and a modern style? Perhaps my Pop Art style is right for you. A commission done in an Andy Warhol style looks modern and fun and works well with people and pets.

Frequently asked questions
Are you confident with the idea of commissioning a piece of art? You may have questions which I hope I have answered here. If you need further information, please get in touch and I will be happy to help.
If you decide to go ahead and commission an artwork, the first thing to think about is when does it need to be ready by? Perhaps there is a special birthday coming up or an event that you need the painting to be ready for? So how long does it takes? It all depends on how busy I am but I will try to finish it within a month. A deadline is always useful to work towards.
It obviously depends on many factors such as size and media but I can work with most budgets.
Firstly I would recommend talking to me or emailing with me with some photos, size and preferred media. If I am sure I can carry out the commission I will give a guide price and if agreed request a 50% non returnable deposit.
No, it does not matter. I can work with good quality photos and will email you with updates so we are both confident the commission is going in the right direction.
I have not had any clients yet who have changed their minds but this can happen for whatever reasons. If I have started the work and spent time working on it, understandably, I will have to keep some of the deposit to cover materials and time. But I always strive to work with my clients to get a great result and ensure a satisfied outcome for all.
You can email or ‘Whats app’ me the picture or pictures. The photos need to be clear and of good quality. I like to work from a selection of photos.
I need good quality images, the required size and media. I am more than happy to look at a ‘Pinterest board’ or a powerpoint of your ideas also. I want to make sure you get a unique artwork.
Yes, I email proofs or if local bring over the painting at certain points to make sure you are happy with the way it is proceeding and to see if there are any colours etc that need tweaking..
