Commissions Open
Tell me about the day …
... the anniversary, the first trip, the last one with your dad. I work from your photos and paint that memory on canvas. Original artwork inspired by the magic of your trip, not Disney characters.
Choose Your Commission: Memory, Milestone, or Heirloom
The Memory and Milestone Commissions are painted by me using digital methods to about 90% completion. Then the painting is transferred onto an archival stretched canvas using giclee’ printing methods. The final 10% of the commission is hand-finished by me using museum-grade acrylics paints on the canvas.
The Heirloom Commissions are painted using traditional painting methods in museum-grade acrylic paints onto a large stretched archival canvas (no print stage.)
Commissions take 1-2 months to complete, using your photographs as reference. Your final painting is shipped to you unframed with the option to add a frame if you desire.
