Commission Request Form

Before we get Started:

Requesting an art commission is different from buying an original or a print. There are a few things I’d like to let you know, so we can be right off to a great path:

First and foremost, have you gotten acquainted with my art? Every artist has its own style. My commissions are very specifically geared towards the empowerment of adults and children with hearing loss and/or other disabilities. I’m often told it has a look that resembles animated characters coming out of a child’s book or movie. It has a 3D element (a sculpture that’s attached in some way to a background that’s hung on a wall (see examples). I also tend to put wings on the ears of most my pieces to illustrate hearing loss in a powerful and liberating way.
Requesting a commissioned art piece does not guarantee that you will receive one.
After you send me the request, you will receive a response from me on my availability and we will most likely set up a time to chat.
You will then fill out a questionnaire so I can get to know a little more about the person being portrayed on your piece.
We will need to meet either in person or at least via Skype so we can create a positive relationship and be able to achieve a great result.
Specific photographs will be requested for reference.
Based on everything I learn from you, I will introduce to you my idea for the piece and give you a quote.
A non-refundable deposit will be made to secure my time to be spent on your future new art piece.
From the moment I begin to paint and sculpt, it takes me at least from 3 to 6 weeks to complete a commissioned piece, depending on what it involves. No changes will be allowed during the creation process.
I will be posting my progress via social media and sharing them with you (unless specifically agreed by both parties to keep it private).
You will be notified once the piece is completed and final payment will be expected once it’s ready for shipping or pick up.
