What is a commission?

When you are looking for the perfect art piece but aren’t finding exactly what you want, you may want to consider having a piece commissioned.

This means collaborating directly with the artist to get the size, colors and theme you are looking for.

The end result is a unique piece of art that reflects your desires while showcasing the particular talents of the artist.

how do commissions work?

It starts with a conversation.

You and I would have a chat about what you are looking for, and I would start with the following questions:

  • What sort of art are you looking for?

  • Where will it hang? (home/office/business etc)

  • Is this for you or for someone else?

  • What general/orientation size do you want?

  • Are there particular colors or a themes you would like included?

  • When do you need it completed? (Is there an event deadline we need to meet like a birthday etc.?)

the process

Once we have decided to go forward together with a painting

  • A contract is signed and a 50% non refundable deposit is made

  • If possible, we may arrange a site visit. This can also be accomplished with photos of the space or a zoom call.

  • I will prepare 3 sketches of possible layouts for you to choose from.

  • If additional sketches or revisions are needed, a revision fee of $100 per layout will be charged

  • Once final idea is selected, painting begins

  • Final payment is due upon receipt of the painting.

  • Delivery fees and shipping are available at an additional cost.

  • Final piece will be varnished and ready to hang.

  • Framing not included

testimonials

Homeowners start personal collection

“This was the first time having commissioned art for our home and it was such a great experience. We love the final piece!

Rita made the process easy and fun. She brought along examples of different styles, and walked through our home to help us determine the best location. She asked questions on everything from colors and size down to very specific details to make sure she captured our style and preferences.

The final result is beautiful and better than we could have imagined! She absolutely captured our conversation and made a gorgeous painting we are so happy to display in our home.”

“It was an awesome experience working with Rita on artwork for our office. She took the mission and principals of what we do and was able to create unique and beautiful pieces for patients to begin to subtly absorb the concepts while waiting for their visit.

I highly recommend hiring Rita to help liven up your space, while simultaneously involving your concepts, color schemes and company mission”
