Simply get in touch via my contact form/email with details about your pet or the wildlife subject you have in mind. I’ll guide you through the process, discuss size options, and provide a quote before we begin.

The cost of a commissioned painting varies depending on size and complexity. Once I receive all the details of your request, I will provide a personalized quote. Shipping is not included in the starting prices shown below. 2026 Starting Prices for Common Canvas Sizes (Final pricing quotes may vary based on reference image, size, and level of detail) • Small (8” x 10”) — $330 • Medium (16” x 20”) — $860 • Large (24” x 36”) — $2,250 • X-Large (30"x40") — $3,150 To ensure the strongest composition and overall presence of your artwork, I may recommend a canvas size that best complements your reference image. For example, certain portraits may be better suited to an 9” x 12” rather than a 8” x 10” format. Any size adjustments will be discussed with you, with pricing updated accordingly. ** Depending on your location, personal home delivery or arranged local meet-up may be available for a small fee.

Yes, a 50% deposit is required to secure your commission. The remaining balance is due upon completion. **Deposits for commissioned paintings are non-refundable as they cover the time and materials invested in the project.

The time required for a commissioned piece depends on the size and complexity of the artwork. I also factor in the full varnishing and curing process. Framing is not included in timeframe provided below. As a general guideline: • Small paintings (approximately 9" x 12") — about 1 month • Medium paintings (approximately 16" x 20") — about 2 months • Large paintings (approximately 24" x 36") — about 3 months Please note that timelines may vary slightly depending on current commission volume and the specific details of your piece.

Each painting is created with professional-grade Golden Heavy Body Acrylic paints. I then seal the painting with Goldens permanent Isolation Coat, and protect it with Goldens removable MSA Varnish that has UVLS protection for added durability and preservation.

Yes! Although, framing is completely optional! Framing is not included in the commission price; however, I’m happy to recommend framing options or coordinate framing with my trusted framer for an additional cost. **Please note that in order to receive an accurate framing quote, the finished painting must be brought to the framer in person. Because of this, I can only provide an estimated price range beforehand. The artwork will not be framed until you’ve been given the official final quote and have approved the cost.

Yes! I try to create prints of each original painting. Prints are available in sizes smaller than the original piece and are finished with solid-color edges that match the background. This keeps the prints visually cohesive while maintaining a clear distinction from the larger, fully hand-painted, wrapped edges of the original artwork.

To make sure each painting lasts a very long time, its best to display your painting indoors in a stable environment away from direct sun, moisture, and heat sources. For cleaning, just dust gently with a soft, dry cloth without using water or cleaning products.
