How can I commission you to paint a painting?

If you would like to commission a landscape or still life painting, please call me at 704-596-1286, or email me, to discuss what you have in mind. The process of commissioning a painting is typically as follows:

  • Artist and client will discuss the details of the painting—the subject, size, medium, colors, etc.
  • Client will submit any necessary reference materials, such as photographs, along with a signed commission agreement detailing cost and estimated timeline, and a non-refundable deposit.
  • Artist will draw a compositional sketch and email to client for review.
  • Artist will proceed with commencing the painting.
  • If client desires framing, artist will email client links to recommended frames for review. Payment for framing is due at time of frame order.
  • Upon completion of painting, artist will arrange to meet client for approval of the completed work (if local) or email a photo of the finished piece.
  • Upon approval and payment of balance due, painting will be hand-delivered or shipped to client once the painting is dry enough to send.
  • If desired, artist will make arrangements with client for varnishing at the appropriate time.
Client is responsible for all shipping costs, including packaging and insurance, along with applicable sales tax (MD and NC residents).
