Commission an Abstract Painting
A custom-commissioned abstract painting is the perfect way to celebrate your unique style or commemorate a special occasion.
These are show-stopping high-quality custom paintings of all sizes that bring home the ultimate in style and color. Where there was once a sad, blank wall there is now a show-stopping vibrant, chic, and meaningful piece of art that reminds you of your own individuality!
My abstract expressionist style of work showcases bombastic color combinations that strut their stuff. These acrylic paintings are bold, brave, fun, and demand to be the star of the show. They feature expressive, dancing brush strokes and mark-making that sing out with high energy. I encourage my collectors to share their joy in who they are with the world; to step into their own star qualities while they can.
People who commission paintings from me are often celebrating graduations, anniversaries, big birthdays, weddings, retirement, or other special occasions. You will have an incredibly sentimental, uplifting, and stylish piece of heirloom art you can proudly display anywhere in your lovely home (and show off whenever you have company over!).
DETAILS
Please fill out the commission inquiry form with your request. I will review it and get back to you as quickly as possible as I cannot accommodate every request.
Medium used: Acrylic, pencil, and pastel on gallery wrapped canvas that is 1.5 inches deep (or, whatever it is you envision!)
Sides: The sides of the piece can be painted solid white, or any other color. If wooden, I can stain the sides. I can also continue the background color onto the sides. This is all your choice. If you are looking to have your piece professionally framed, then I will simply paint the sides white.
Hanging: I typically install hanging hardware and a hanging wire on the back of the piece so it's ready to go! Let me know if you would like to add a frame!
Shipping: I can deliver this personally if you are within 1.5 hours of the city of Boston, MA. Otherwise, this piece will ship with utmost care with tracking and insurance via Fed Ex. Shipping/Delivery fees are included in the commission price.
Style: As you can see in my abstract work, I paint in a very loose, colorful and fluid style. If you are not a fan of my particular painting style; I am not offended and I'm sure you will find another artist whose style matches your own personal tastes! NOTE: I cannot change my style (it's like asking me to change my fingerprints), so pretty please do not ask.

How We'll Work Together
1. Let's chat! Simply send me this commission request detailing things like the size of painting, where you are located, and what you're looking for. I will send along answers to any questions and a pricing quote.
2. If we decide to move forward with your custom commissioned painting, I request a non-refundable deposit of 50% of the final cost. This enables me to get the materials I need for your piece and cover my painting time. I will also need whatever photos/jpegs you have of your inspiration or ideas if you have some. This fee can be paid with credit card through PayPal or Venmo. (you do not need to be a PayPal member to take advantage of this).
3. I will create the painting and take photos of my progress as I go. I will email you images so you can weigh in with your thoughts. Remember, this is for you and I want you to LOVE it! Acrylic dries quickly and I can easily paint over it if needed!
4. Once I'm done, you will get a final image for your final approval. Once I get that approval, I will go ahead and invoice for the final 50% fee for the painting to cover my time and the shipping/delivery fees. This is also non-refundable. Again, I want you to LOVE your painting before we finalize everything!
5. Once the payment is in hand, I will then have your painting professionally packaged and shipped with tracking and insurance via FED EX. If you live relatively local to the Boston, MA area, then I can deliver the painting right to you! (Or, you are welcome to pick it up here at my home studio and see where it was created!). If you have a special event happening and would like me to do an unveiling, I am open to doing that. This is a special occasion!
6. Unwrap and love your new piece of original art made just for you! (and hang it in a prominent location for everyone to Oooooh and Ahhhh over!)
