Collaborating to Create Art

One of my favorite things to do is create a piece of art for a specific space.
 

When I was taking fine art classes in college, I actually thought this was a flaw. Instead of being fully engrossed in the painting itself, I was always thinking about where I would hang it and whether it would work in that space.
 

But now that I’ve done commission work for collectors, I think it’s actually one of my greatest strengths as an artist. A gorgeous piece of artwork can center a room and bring an energetic compliment to the other design details.

In my commission process, we define the size and color palette together. I take input on other pieces of mine that you, the collector, really love. Then I start creating and provide regular updates on progress.

You have the opportunity to provide feedback during the process, and in the end we emerge with a piece of art that is uniquely yours. I really love this kind of collaboration!
