How it works…
I work from photographs when doing a commission. The photos do not need to be professionally done and actually having several photos can be very helpful. If you have a color palette in mind, I can work within that range. After looking over the photos, I create a sketch…the road map for the painting. At that point, I ask for a $150 deposit, and the painting process begins. In the video at the bottom of the page, you can see examples of how it all works.
If you have something in particular in mind (as far as what your pets are doing), I love to know that kind of stuff. People often go thru my albums on the fan page or my website for ideas, too. Since it’s a painting and not a photo, your animals can be doing anything from playing an instrument to sitting at a football game. Love creative ideas I get from my clients! And if you are stumped, I can help

Commission Pricing for PETites
If paintings are financially out of range, then PETites are a good alternative. They are custom color sketches that are roughly 5 x 5 and come in a white 8 x 10 mat ready for framing. These are $59. There is more info on PETites HERE. And the cool thing about PETites is that should you ever want to turn that sketch into a painting, the $$ you spent on the PETite will be applied to the painting. The existing non-commissioned PETites on my site and on my Facebook fan page are all $49.
