I create custom sketches of all your favorite people, places, and things. Whether it's a gift for a loved one or a special piece for yourself, I design one-of-a-kind artworks that reflect your unique vision and personality. The best part? You’re involved in the entire design process.

How it works

Commissions are a collaboration, and your input is key. I want to bring your ideas to life, so I’ll guide you through a simple, enjoyable process. Here’s what I ask from you

The setting

Where would you like your art to be set? Think about a place that holds meaning for you – it could be your home, a cozy spot like your favorite couch, a tranquil spa, or even a holiday destination. I've created art inspired by the most unexpected places, including outer space!

Not sure where to begin? No worries – start by listing the things that are special to you. Your favorite memories, places, or moments will help us come up with the perfect location together.

People and pets

Let me know who I’ll be drawing, along with their favorite things. Think about their favorite teams, music, books, pets, and anything else that might be special to them. I love adding lots of detail, so the more you share, the more you'll discover when you see the artwork. It’s all about creating those special touches that make you smile.

Photos

Please provide several photos of the people I’ll be drawing. The more reference photos you share, the more accurately I can capture their likeness and personality.

A man in a Rockets basketball jersey is holding a lasso next to a purple and blue dinosaur, while a girl in a floral dress holds a pumpkin over her head near a pink dinosaur. There are drawings on the driveway, including a child's drawing labeled 'Bowie' and 'Dad,' and a small table with toy cakes. Large green plants surround the scene, and a basketball hoop is present. The sky is pink with clouds and the sun in the background.

Why choose a commission?

Commissioning art is more than just buying a painting – it’s creating something truly personal and meaningful. Each piece I create is a reflection of the story you want to tell, and the end result will be an artwork that resonates with you for years to come. Honestly, people are often in awe when they see the final piece, and the hardest part is waiting to gift it!

Cost

The cost varies depending on your request and whether you’d like a print or framing. Here’s a general pricing guide:

  • Digital and Print: $500 - $700

  • Digital, Print, and Glass Frame: $800 - $1100

  • Digital, Canvas Print, and Frame: $800 - $1100
