Commissioning a Custom Artwork
Bringing a specific vista, memory, or space to life is a deeply rewarding collaborative experience. When you commission a custom landscape, you are not just acquiring a painting—you are commissioning a dedicated chapter in the ongoing Land Escapes visual journal, tailored to harmonize with your environment.
The Artistic Approach
I work closely with collectors to build semi-abstract oil landscapes. Every commission relies on the exact same principles as my independent studio work: vivid oil color, rich impasto layers, and the exclusive use of customized palette knives.
Please note that while I accept custom orders, I do not paint photographic replications. I paint the feeling, the light quality, and the emotional resonance of a place. The goal is to create a dynamic, living composition that makes your specific wall sing.
How the Process Works
- 1. Initial Consultation & Vision: We begin with a conversation about your space, your aesthetic goals, and the specific terrain that inspires you. You are welcome to share photographs of the landscape, reference existing paintings of mine that resonate with you, and provide the exact dimensions of your wall space.
- 2. Composition & Color Strategy: Based on our consultation, I will establish the color palette, core shapes, and structural dynamics of the piece. We will finalize the project details, timeline, and investment tier. A standard 50% deposit secures your place on the studio calendar.
- 3. Studio Execution: I build the landscape layer by layer in my studio, heavily amplifying the color and texture through custom-knifed impasto strokes.
- 4. Final Reveal & Delivery: Once the painting has cured enough for safe handling, I provide high-resolution documentation for your final approval. Your painting is then carefully crated and shipped directly from my studio to your door, ready to hang.
