Art Commissions
Hello!
Thanks for your interest in my artwork – I would love to help you make an idea come to life!
Custom art commissions are a bespoke process for whatever you can think of – original characters, portraits, book illustrations, D&D characters, album artwork, you name it!
My paintings are created using mixed media, but mostly gouache, watercolour, and acrylics. I can also work in digital media. The media of choice will largely depend on the complexity and type of project you would like, as different mediums will achieve different effects. This process will be discussed with you to ensure the best outcome for your project.
You will receive both the physical original artwork, as well as a high resolution scan of the image that is yours to do with as you wish. Absolutely NO AI is used at any stage of my creation process – my pieces are entirely handmade from start to finish!
I have several types of commissions on offer – you can continue reading for more details and examples, or simply get in touch with your idea to get started!
Full Illustrations
Full illustrations are polished, highly rendered, and detailed pieces with backgrounds and subjects. These are hand painted and are the lengthiest and costliest projects to make because of the high labour involved.
Pricing
As each commission is a custom project, pricing will vary depending on size and complexity. I will need details on your goals for the project to provide an accurate quote.
As a rough guide, however, A5 pieces start at $350, and A4 start at $600. Please get in contact to work something out!
Paintings will generally come unframed, however they are glossed with a varnish that makes them suitable for display with or without glass. I can offer custom framing at an additional cost.
Postage of the artwork comes with tracking, and is included in the cost of the commission for domestic payments. Depending on international orders, some may require an additional postage fee, but I try to keep these minimal and included in the commission price wherever possible.
Linework
Just lines – no colour or paintwork. This option is perfect for original character artworks!
You will receive a high-resolution scan of the artwork, as well as the original artwork.
Pricing
As a general guide, busts (head+shoulders) start at $50, and full-body artworks start at $75 for single characters. Prices may be higher depending on complexity of the design.
+$30 per additional bust, +$40 per additional full-body character within the same artwork.
T&Cs and Further Details
I am generally a very fast painter, however do keep in mind that commissions are totally personalised and can therefore be a somewhat lengthy process depending on the scale and complexity of the project. I will work with you at each stage of the process and share progress pictures with you to ensure the outcome is what you want!
I will take a 50% deposit after discussing the project with you to secure the commission, and the remainder will be invoiced upon completion. I am also happy to accept payment plans if needed!
Delivery of the final product will take place once full payment has been received. All sales are final – however, if there is a significant issue, I will work with you to rectify it!
I reserve the right to reject a commission at any stage of its process. If payment has already been made, I may offer a full or partial refund depending on the situation. In any case, I will work with you to ensure the best outcome.
I will post anywhere AusPost allows! Please allow 3-7 business days for domestic postage, and between 2-6 weeks for international postage. I can post to the USA, however there are currently size and dimension limits due to tarriff laws – this will be discussed before the commission is confirmed.
These commission prices are as a starting guide only. Prices may be higher or lower depending on the project.
Commissioned artworks come unframed as a default, however are glazed with a glossy varnish that makes them suitable for framing with or without glass. I can offer custom framing for an additional fee! Note that this limits some international postage options.
Your commissioned artwork is yours to use as you wish! Feel free to distribute it and use it however you see fit. However, I do maintain the original rights to the image, and reserve the right to create reproductions as I see fit.
