Commissioning Process.

Commissioning an artwork gives you the opportunity to own a unique work designed specifically in response to your theme/subject matter and your requirements.

Stage One: Email to make contact and we can begin discussing commission. You need to have a theme, idea of material/medium, size, budget and timescale. It is essential to discuss your requirements and your budget, from which I can formulate some ideas to work on. I will be able to tell you if I am available and what is possible.

If the project is a site-specific installation, a visit to the proposed site, preferably with the client, is required which allows me to appreciate the surroundings and scale. This will help me to refine my plans for the commission with the client, ensure any site limitations are being considered and carry out risk assessment. A non-returnable fee will be charged to cover travel expenses if site visit is needed.

Stage Two: I provide outline proposal so the design can be visualised, discussed with the client and agreed. This will also contain  costing and schedule for completion, delivery and installation.

Stage Three: I require a deposit only if you want to go ahead with the commission. Non-returnable deposit, usually 50%, is agreed with the client which is required on acceptance of the proposal so that work can begin on creating the commissioned work.

Stage Four: When to work is completed you will be able to see the finished piece. Final payment will then be required before delivery.

Copyright ownership remains with the artist.

If you are interested in commissioning please do contact and we can start Stage One.

I create bespoke artwork for individual clients, as well as curators, architects. interior and garden designers.
