Commission Art

I love bringing people art that they truly connect with, and what better way to do that than to provide commissions? Custom, handmade pieces of art have an intimacy that is difficult to find in nearly any other material good.

Some clients have a specific vision they want to see manifested. Some want the likeness of themselves or their loved one (human or pet) immortalized in an intimate, original piece of fine art. Some want custom art to personalize the décor of their home or place of business.

Whatever you’re looking for, I would love the opportunity to bring it to you with my unique artistic style!

How much does a commission cost?

My rate for commissioned fine art is $20/hour for actual drawing/painting time. To give you an idea of what that means, generally this translates to about $200-$300 for a single-subject 8″x10″ graphite drawing or watercolor painting. Smaller commissions or commissions with less detail will cost less, larger or more detail-intensive commissions will cost more. Feel free to contact me to get a better idea of what your commission might cost!

For tattoo designs, my rate is $15/hour.

For commissions over $100, half of the full price is due when I reach the halfway point of the work, and the rest of the payment due upon completion of the work.

What kinds of commissions do you do?

I will draw or paint any subject or concept that is not hateful or discriminatory.

I work primarily with watercolor, graphite, and acrylic, but I include mediums such as charcoal, chalk pastel, and colored pencil when a project calls for it.

Refer to the image gallery on this site to see examples of my style in different mediums.

My most popular requests are watercolor and graphite pet portraits, body positive figure art, and tattoo designs.

How do I commission a piece?

Start by contacting me about your basic concept! Once we’ve gone over a few details and confirmed that you want to move forward, you will place a down payment to reserve your spot! For fine art commissions, this is a non-refundable $50 booking fee that will go toward the final cost of your commission. For tattoo design commissions, the non-refundable booking fee is $30.

Throughout the process, I will be in contact with you to ask and answer questions and give progress updates.

I love helping people turn their vision into a beautiful piece of unique, custom artwork that they can treasure forever!
