The Commission Process:

  1. Initial Inquiry
    Email me with a brief description of what you’re looking for, along with reference photos (pets, people, places, or memories).

  2. Consultation & Quote
    I’ll follow up with size options, pricing, and timeline recommendations tailored to your piece. Most commissions are completed within 3–6 weeks,

  3. Creation
    Once deposit is confirmed, I begin sketching and painting. I will share progress photos throughout this period as needed.

  4. Completion & Delivery
    A final photo is sent. Upon approval and full payment, finished pieces are carefully packaged and shipped, or made available for local pickup in Largo, FL.

Pricing Overview:

  1. Tiny works (4x4, 4x6, 5x7) 80~200

  2. Small works (6x8, 8x10, 10x10) 150~350

  3. Medium works (9x12, 11x14, 12x16) 210~500

  4. Large works (16x20, 18x24, 22x30) 400~1000+

    These sizes and ranges are guidelines, any dimension is possible, and final pricing depends on size, number of subjects, and background detail.

    I’ll guide you through size and layout options to ensure the finished piece feels balanced and personal.

  • A 50% deposit is required to reserve your commission and begin work. The remaining balance is due upon completion, prior to shipping or delivery.

    Accepted payment methods include credit/debit card and secure online payment options. Full payment is required before artwork is released or shipped.

    I’ll confirm all details, pricing, and timeline before any work begins, and make sure you are happy with the final piece before shipping.

  • Each commission includes minor revisions at the sketch or early painting stage. This allows for small adjustments to details such as expression, color balance, or background tone. Significant changes requested after this stage may incur an additional fee and may extend the timeline.

  • Due to the custom nature of commissioned artwork, deposits are non-refundable once work has begun. If a commission is canceled before work begins, the deposit can be refunded.

  • With a deep understanding of pigment, materials, and conservation practices, each painting is created as an heirloom-quality artwork meant to last for generations. Painted by hand using professional-grade pigments and archival materials on 100% cotton paper.

All works on this page are one-of-a-kind watercolors created from beloved client photos.

Whether to celebrate a wedding, welcome a new family member, or to honor and memorialize a loved one, I work closely with each client to ensure not only likeness, but emotional resonance. I use color and atmosphere to create a piece that feels personal, enduring, and meaningful.

I’m happy to answer questions at any stage to ensure the process feels comfortable and collaborative.

Smaller standard commissions may be available through select online listings.
