Commissions

I have had the pleasure of painting many commissioned pieces for those who see my work, are drawn to my style of art, and want a custom painting that I create just for them. Let me know if you would like me to paint an original piece of artwork for you.

~ Barsetti Vineyards of Lodi, California have commissioned several paintings based on their vineyards and have chosen one, “Spring Renewal at Barsetti”,
to grace their wine labels. Please contact them if you would like to try their wonderful Zinfandel, Merlot, Pinot Grigio, and Chardonnay.

~ For years I have created paintings that I then design into holiday cards for several different private collectors. Shown here are the acrylic/watercolor
paintings that my clients have asked for, with the bird of their choice in a setting fitting to their home state of Florida.

~ Here also are the winter scenes that were painted and printed as Christmas cards for my Maryland clients.

~ I have painted the greens for a golfer who wanted to celebrate his three ‘holes-in-one’, which is a great gift idea for any golfer who may want
his or her hole-in-one green or favorite course painted and beautifully framed.

~ Many of my commissions have been for those who want an original painting of their beloved animal companion. I would be happy to paint and frame a portrait of your pet for you. My pet portraits are detailed and vibrant, and I strive to capture your animal friend in a way that will be a true commemoration. I will simply need several good photos and your input on what setting/background you would like in the painting.
Please contact me if you are interested in a pet portrait and I can send you a brochure through the mail or email, with more samples and pricing. After we discuss the painting I will get photos of your pet to work from ~ you may mail them, email them, or meet me in Whatcom County so that I may take pictures with my camera, if you live nearby. After you look through samples and we talk about what you would like, I will complete a sketch for your approval, create the original pastel, and frame it.
Email me if you have questions about commissioning a painting of any subject and I will give you more information and pricing by return email or phone call.
