Commission Your Own Painting


An important part of my work is capturing other people's happy moments in an individually commissioned painting. I find this process both enjoyable and very satisfying. Commissioned paintings usually depict places or occasions that hold special memories and can often include family members, friends and pets. Please get in touch to discuss commissioning a painting - [email protected]

The Process

Once a basic idea has been settled on, I sketch it out to make sure it is exactly what you want. Once you are happy with the composition I start the actual painting. Then when I am finished the painting, I email you a photo of it to see if any changes are required. If there are any final changes to be made I will complete those and wait for approval.
My preferred medium is acrylic paints on canvas or board.

Size & Price

Some examples of sizes and prices -
Most of my commissions measure 60cm x 80cm and the price for that size is £2500. Another popular size is 50cm x 70cm which costs £1900. I can work to other sizes dependant on your requirements, please ask for more details. 

Framing and Delivery

If required, I can arrange framing for you at cost. I have an excellent framer here in Edinburgh.
​I am happy to deliver the painting free of charge if you live locally. If you live further a-field I can arrange a specialised art courier who delivers throughout the UK.  I can also arrange international shipping if necessary. These delivery services would be charged at cost. 

Making the most of your commission

In the past some clients have asked me to produce prints, coasters or cards using the image from their commission. They make very personal gifts or keepsakes. I can provide quotes for this service.
​

​N.B. Copyright of a painting is owned by the artist.

I am more than happy to discuss any ideas you may have for a commission, free of charge.

Commissioned as a leaving present for a Head Teacher, this was a joy to paint - so many happy children, so much energy and so many bright colours!

This is one of a pair of commissions I completed for Scotmid/Semichem. I had great fun including lots of local Stockbridge characters.
