I was out earlier and someone wished me a “Season’s Greetings”. It was the first time this year that I’ve heard holiday cheers as we move into cooler months and shorter days. I love this time of year. It’s a festive season ~ all about gratitude, blessing and remembering the ones we love. All that and more makes me excited to start planning for the holidays…
This year ’tis the season for art. Owning original artwork is an enjoyable experience. If you’ve searched my site and still haven’t found the perfect painting for your home or for that gift consider commissioning me to create your distinct artwork specifically produced to compliment your unique tastes.
I enjoy creating a variety of art genre in a several styles in my celebration of timeless beauty through powerful art. I believe that art is about creating – not recreating. I believe those appreciate art most join me in that celebration of truly unique and original creations.

Throughout the process, you are intimately involved with the creation of your own original heirloom artwork. We’ll work together to create beautiful imagery – starting with the photo shoot all the way through the final painting. Along the way, I’ll video the creative process so you’ll have a record of its creation. This is the evolution of commissioned heirloom art. Your experience can continue with a special unveiling of the artwork, perhaps a night out, a catered cocktail party, or I can join you for an unveiling in your area. We can include as many variables as you wish – or keep it simple. Either way, it’s all about the experience, spirit and energy of creation. Possibilities are endless.

FAST FORWARD >> commissioned painting on canvas, 36″ x 60″
During the creation of your art, I’ll take pictures and document its creation. This is great provenance of the painting’s origin and history from inception to finished artwork. Check out my recent post for my recent Ferrari FF painting above — “Fast Forward >> Start to Finish“.
Let’s get started. Here are some things I’ll need to know…
Who or what is the work for? Is it for your home? Is it a gift?
Are there any constraints or special requirements? Think about dimensions of the work, the space where the work will go, the function of the work, any materials to be used?
What are you looking for? What kind of artwork do you like, do you prefer a particular style?
What is your budget? Does this include installation and delivery?
Time Frame
Creating a painting that we can all be proud of takes time. An original art creation can take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks to a few months, depending on my existing commitments and the complexity of your artwork. Each painting will vary slightly in the steps taken from conception through completion, as each person, situation and circumstance is unique. Usually, I can give you a pretty good idea as to when an original artwork will be finished and delivered. If time is essential, let me know and I will take your due date into consideration.
Pricing
The price for an original artwork will vary depending on the size, medium, and complexity of your original creation piece. Contact me – we can discuss the details of your painting..
I require a deposit of one-third with the second third due half way through the painting, and the balance due upon completion. Sales tax, shipping and handling (if applicable) are extra. In the event of cancellation on your part, deposits are non-refundable.
A thing of beauty is a joy forever: its loveliness increases; it will never pass into nothingness.
~ John Keats
