Commission Examples
What to know and FAQ
How much will it cost?
All commission work starts at a base of $350, see below for rough estimates. These estimates are considering all parts of the process: from time for exchanging ideas and choosing materials, to tax, framing, shipping, etc. Please note these estimated are subject to change depending on project
The basics I need from you:
- Materials
Do you want your piece done in paper, canvas or glass?
Do you want it done in charcoal, ink, acrylics or oils?
Do you want to add pressed flowers?
What size? Do you want it framed? (Note: vintage frames limit size and material options, ask for current inventory)
- Good quality photo reference
I work exclusively from observation. This means I do not create from imagination. You will need to provide a few good quality photos for me to create from. The better the photos you supply, the better the outcome
- Inspiration ideas and color palette
Having a visual of the general idea of what you want will help me understand what you’re looking for. I suggest looking through my portfolio and focusing specifically on what materials, style, poses and colors you prefer. I will provide sketches and ideas for you to choose from before committing to the final piece
How long will it take?
Please estimate about a month for completion
Shipping, pick-up, delivery?
All of the above! I am based in Twin Cities, MN. We can arrange for pick up. I also offer local delivery and national shipping for a potential additional cost depending on project
What type of payments do you accept?
I accept payments through an online invoice, card, cash or Venmo - no checks. I ask for 50% of payment in advance and due balance upon completion. I am able to do payment plans and am willing to accept trades depending on the offer
How do I get started?
Start by reaching out herewith detailed inquiry. If you can, please come prepared and be as specific as possible
Unsure of what you’re looking for? That’s totally ok! We can go over it by email, phone call or coffee/tea (on me!)
I am so excited to work with you! Thanks for your trust and support!
