1

How do I commission a painting?

Simply head on over to the Commissions page and select which type of painting you want. When you add to cart, a form will pop up with additional details, and you will be asked to put in contact information. I will contact you once your order is submitted and figure out remaining details and exchange reference photos!


How long will it take for my painting to be finished?

2

Completion times heavily depend on the size, type of commission, and how many projects I am working on at once. When you place your order, I will contact you with a more precise timeline, but I would allot at least 4-6 weeks for me to complete and ship your painting.


Do you offer custom canvas sizes?

3

Absolutely! If you are interested in a size that isn’t listed, feel free to specify in your form the size that you want.


Can I request specific details or backgrounds?

4

Yes! Make sure to thoroughly describe your vision when placing your order. I want to make sure your painting is as special to you as possible.


What type of paint do you use?

5

I use Liquitex Basics Acrylic paint to allow for fast drying times, a beautiful, long-lasting color, and longevity so your painting stays beautiful over the years. I varnish each painting with Liquitex Matte Varnish to ensure your painting is protected from dust and light.


How far are you willing to travel for events?

6

Absolutely anywhere! I love to travel and would love to see weddings and events all over. 75 miles of travel are included in the base live wedding painting price of $1250, and additional travel fees apply outside 75 miles.


Is the painting finished at my wedding or event?

7

In most cases, no, your painting will not be completely finished at the event. I will paint as much as I can within the event’s time, show you my progress, then take it home to finish and ship it to you.


How far in advance should I book?

8

I recommend booking as early as possible, as dates fill up fast and availability is limited!


Do your paintings come framed?

9

Paintings are delivered unframed unless otherwise specified. If you are interested in framing options, feel free to reach out.
