ART and
COMMISSIONS
My work is inspired by the ever-changing beauty of nature—open skies, luminous light, and layered landscapes that evoke a sense of place and feeling.
In my commissions, I collaborate with collectors to transform personal landscapes, memories, or moods into one-of-a-kind paintings that live meaningfully within their homes. Each piece is created from my home studio, where life, creativity, and inspiration continually intertwine.
Commission Collaboration
Many collectors come to me with a place, atmosphere, or feeling they would love to
see translated into a painting. Some of the most common inspirations include:
Meaningful landscapes — a place that holds personal significance, such as a favorite coastline, hiking destination, or place of reflection.
Skies and atmosphere — collectors are often drawn to dramatic skies, golden hour light, and the shifting mood of the horizon.
Coastal and water scenes — expansive ocean views, cliffs, and the movement of water paired with luminous skies.
Paintings designed for a specific space — artwork created to complement the color palette, scale, and energy of a room.
Each commission is
a collaboration,
allowing us to capture
the spirit of a place
while creating a
piece that feels deeply personal and
uniquely yours.
the COMMISSIONS PROCESS
SIZE + SPACE: We begin by determining the best size for your painting and the space. Commissions currently begin at 30" x 40" to allow space for the atmosphere and movement that define my work. If you’re unsure what size would work best, I’m happy to help guide you.
INSPIRATION + DIRECTION : Next, you’ll share any inspiration that helps tell the story of your piece — paintings of mine you’re drawn to, meaningful places, photographs, Pinterest boards, or color palettes. The more insight you share, the better I can capture the feeling and atmosphere you’re looking for.
CONCEPT + SKETCH: From there, I create a few small acrylic thumbnail sketches to explore composition and direction. Once we review the options and align on the vision, the final oil painting begins in the studio. Most commissions take 4–8 weeks to complete.
PRICING + RESERVATION: Commissioned paintings begin at $500, typically priced about 15% above available studio work to account for the collaborative planning process. A 50% deposit reserves your commission and begins the painting, with the remaining balance (plus shipping) due upon completion.
Because I accept a limited number of commissions each season, availability is limited. If you’re considering a custom painting, I encourage you to reach out early to reserve a spot.
