Commissions
Commissions are the perfect way to have a truly unique piece of art to treasure.
The commissioning process is as follows:
Step 1 - Initial Consultation and Deposit
To start with, we'll work together using reference images, or your own images, as a guide for what I will create for you.
Some people like a straightforward drawing of an image (perhaps you have a photo you want turned into a drawing), other people have an idea in their mind. If it's the latter, we will have a 20-30 minute conversation so I can understand what it is you'd like to visualise.
*Please note - If I'm completely honest, I don't really enjoy portraits (sorry!) and so have decided to exclude portraits or people from my commissioning options.
If you would like to go forward with the commission, I will require a 30% deposit at this stage.
Step 2 - Agree on Reference
I may need to either crop your image to frame the piece better, or use several reference images to build a picture of what your drawing will look like. Before I even think about picking up my charcoal, I'll need you to agree on my final composition, so you have a good idea of what I'm working towards.
Step 3 - Updates
I'll now purchase the materials, and get to work! I'll send you updates along the way if you like, to make sure you're happy with the progress.
Step 4 - Sign off and payment
When I feel the artwork is finished, I will send over clear photographs and videos of the work including close ups to have your final sign off and make any final tweaks you might request. If you'd prefer to see your work in person, I am based in Cambridgeshire and am very happy to have visitors!
Once I have your sign off, I will request the final 70% of the payment.
Step 5 - Delivery
I am happy to either have the artwork delivered by courier, or depending on the size of the artwork and your proximity, it may also be an option for me to hand deliver your commissioned piece of artwork.
