Commissioning
Every piece of art I create is a journey—layered with texture, emotion, and meaning. While most of my work is available as originals through my collections, I occasionally open up space for bespoke commissions. These are for those seeking something truly personal, something that speaks to their story while reflecting my signature style.
Because each commission is deeply immersive and time-intensive, I only take on a select few each year to ensure I can give them the care and attention they deserve.
If you’d like to collaborate on a custom piece, please get in touch by clicking below. I’d love to bring your vision to life.

FAQ’s
What is the lead time for artwork?
Original Art on Canvas (an already painted piece)
While these pieces are ready to be yours, they do require a little lead time for framing. Every frame is custom-made to your chosen finish and professionally fitted with hanging fixtures for ease. Please allow 2–4 weeks for this process to be completed.
Original Art on Canvas (if commissioned)
Creating an original artwork is a journey—each piece unfolds layer by layer, taking time to develop the depth and texture that makes it unique. The timeline can vary depending on the size and complexity of the piece, but as a guide, I typically aim for 4–8 weeks.
During our initial discussions, I’ll give you an accurate estimate and keep you updated throughout the process. Once your piece is complete and approved, it will be professionally framed to your chosen finish. Please allow an additional 2 weeks for the custom frame to be built and fitted.
If any changes are needed along the way, we’ll factor them into the timeline, but I’ll always prioritize your piece where possible.
If you have any questions, feel free to reach out—I’m happy to help!
Can you advise on sizing?
When selecting a size, I always recommend measuring your space first. For paper pieces, you’ll find all measurements listed in the Paper Size Guide and Frame Guide—just remember to account for the frame size you plan to use. Canvas dimensions are listed under each design for easy reference.
A helpful tip: Try cutting wrapping paper or lining paper to the size you’re considering and use Blu Tack to place it on your wall. Live with it for a few hours or a day to see how it feels in your space—it’s a fun way to visualize the piece before committing!
Can you match my color scheme?
Yes! If I’m able to take on your commission, the piece can be created to suit your specific requirements. If you have fabric swatches, paint colors, or a particular palette in mind, we can incorporate those into the design. For more information on the process, head to the Commission Tab—I’d love to help bring your vision to life!
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes, I offer a payment plant via Klana for all works, which can be selected at checkout, for more info please visit the 'Payment plans' Tab
