Legacy Commissions

Everyone has a story to tell. What’s yours?

Honor your loved ones, a mentor, or a business associate or even your pet with unique visual story. These one-of-a-kind paintings pay tribute to someone special through a colorful and symbolic expression. Consider a personal or corporate Legacy Commission for special occasions like an anniversary, birthday, retirement, or tribute. It's more than a gift. It's a celebration!

Not a typical commission. These paintings are not copies of photos. They are extremely personalized and customized paintings that evolve through detailed dialogue with the client. Several rounds of pencil sketches and regular communication with the client create the perfect foundation and ‘final map’ for the actual painting.

Commission experience. I have created dozens of commissions in various sizes and complexities. I love working with clients directly to create a unique and personalized visual story that represents their life, an experience, or even a beloved pet. These pieces are imaginative but reflect the true character, passions, or personality of the honored individual. My commercial illustration experience has given me the capability to work through the approval stage, to communicate clearly, and to deliver a meaningful, beautiful, and personal work of art, well above expectations.

Process. See below for the typical creative steps involved in a Legacy Commission piece.

Questions? Call or email me. I will be happy to discuss your special commission (a 30-minute initial consult at no charge) and can give you an estimate, based on the finished size and details of the piece. Thank you ahead of time. I look forward to meeting you!
