A commissioned painting is a painting made specifically for you. It’s something extra special, that you will have forever. It’s made with high-quality artists’ oil paints and typically on linen canvas. It is a complete journey in making, that you will have and enjoy for a lifetime.
If you would like to commission a painting, just send me an email at emmafcownie@gmail.com
Turn around time is usually 3-4 weeks.
The rates for a commission are listed below and are rated both per size of the canvas and the complexity of the image to be painted.
The prices per canvas size are normally (guide only as I do not have all sizes in stock)
41x33cm -£225 (16″x 13″ approx)
46x38cm – £275 (18″x 13″ approx)
40x50cm – £295 (20″x16″ approx)
I am happy to paint larger canvases – please contact to discuss details.
*canvas has to be ordered
The Brief – send me an outline of what you are looking for in your commission; i.e. size, subject matter, and include as many good quality reference photos as you can. I can edit or combine images on request. If its a pet portrait, what sort of background would you like?
Logistics – Timescale, is this work a present for a special event? A custom painting can be a unique gift for a loved one. I will need to know special dates well in advance so there is plenty of time for the work to thoroughly dry before it is packed and shipped.
Deposit – I will need a deposit usually £100, this is to cover the materials and any design work, such as sketches or other mockups.
Final review – You will be sent images of the final painting. I finish my work by painting a neutral colour around the edges so the painting is ready to hang. Your work will be shipped and a tracking number provided.
That’s it. Sit back and admire your painting for years to come.
