Please choose from the categories below. Refer to the categories if you're not too sure where your custom piece would fit into. Not everything has to fit in a box so also please feel free to leave blank.
SIZE
This doesn’t have to be exact for the moment, as part of the consultation I can help advise what would be the best size for your space.
DEADLINE
Do you have an absolute hard date that you need your custom artwork for? I’m always happy to work with special requests but I’ll first need to review if its possible in my initial assessment.
MESSAGE
This is your chance you tell me in as much detail about what you’re looking for. This will form the base requirements along with your other information which we’ll later expand on in more detail.

What is the cost of a commission?
It really depends on the size and complexity.
Due to the fact that commissions are so personal, and bespoke I invest considerably more time into a custom piece than an off the shelf artwork.
Once I have received your request I will either:
- Provide an immediate quote if its very clear what you're looking for.
- For more complex pieces where the process & logistics will require a better understanding, the quote will be included in your options presentation after we have had our initial consultation.
When calculating the quote I will mainly use the size of the artwork with consideration of how complex (or not) the process will be.
How long will a custom artwork take to produce?
Normally 3-6 months from when the contract is signed and deposit is paid. Due to the fact that commissions are so personal, and custom I invest considerably more time into a custom artwork that an off the shelf artwork.
Of course I'm happy to discuss any set dates you have in mind.
How is the time frame calculated?
I take complete care and pride into every single piece I create. My process requires countless layers to create depth and texture which takes a long time. Not to mention logistics and materials... each canvas is completely custom made, they themselves take up to a month to receive which means I can only start work from then. Don't worry, any time frame I give you will factor that in and of course if you have a set deadline in mind I can consider this too.
How can I lower the cost of a commission?
The short answer is it's not possible, without lowering the size or quality. Quality is something I take complete pride in, literally every single material is of the highest standard. I would never allow anything to leave my studio that doesn't meet my own standards so it's not something I would ever compromise.
Can I replicate previously sold pieces?
Unfortunately not, even I wanted to replicate a previous artwork it'd never be exactly the same so it may not meet your expectations. I respect all collectors who have invested in me/ my art so it wouldn't be fair to anyone involved for there to be duplicates of the same artwork/ reference. It's not to say I can't take previous pieces you love into consideration.
Custom piece or ready to buy?
It's entirely your choice. Ready to buy pieces will constantly change as I evolve as an artist and release new works.
Whether you've missed out on available pieces, I've stopped painting a particular style you love or you just have a specific vision, custom artworks allow you freedom to choose exactly what you want and tailored to your space.
Can artworks be shipped?
Of course! Again, every artwork is different. The cost of shipping will vary depending on the size, weight and specialist packaging required. Please refer to shipping guidelines for more information.
