    Fine Art Commission Agreement & Client Experience

    Commission an Original Artwork

    Thank you for choosing to invest in an original work of art. Every commissioned artwork is an exclusive, one-of-a-kind piece created specifically for you through a thoughtful collaboration that honors your vision while preserving the integrity of my artistic practice.

    Working primarily in abstract and contemporary modernism, I create museum-quality artwork designed to become a lasting statement piece for your home, business, or collection.

    Each commission is approached with intention, craftsmanship, and attention to detail, resulting in an original work that cannot be replicated.

    The Commission Experience

    Discovery Consultation

    Every commission begins with a private consultation where we will discuss:

    • Purpose and intended space for the artwork

    • Dimensions and orientation

    • Preferred color palette

    • Desired mood, emotion, and inspiration

    • Design preferences

    • Timeline

    • Budget

    • Delivery and installation needs

    Following the consultation, you will receive a personalized Commission Agreement detailing the project scope, specifications, investment, timeline, and expectations.

    Reservation & Payment

    A commission is officially reserved once:

    • The Commission Agreement has been signed.

    • A non-refundable deposit equal to fifty percent (50%) of the total commission investment has been received.

    The remaining fifty percent (50%) balance is due before delivery, installation, or shipment of the completed artwork.

    Artwork remains the sole property of the Artist until payment has been received in full.

    Accepted payment methods will be outlined in the Commission Agreement.

    Balances remaining unpaid beyond ten (10) calendar days after notification of completion may incur a late fee of 1.5% per month (or the maximum rate permitted by law) and may delay delivery until the account is current.

    Creative Process

    Each commissioned piece is an original work of art.

    Although your ideas and preferences help guide the process, the artwork reflects my individual artistic style, creative interpretation, materials, and techniques.

    No commissioned artwork will be an exact reproduction of another artwork, photograph, or digital rendering.

    Clients acknowledge that originality is one of the defining characteristics of fine art.

    Design Timeline

    Initial Design Development

    Approximately 30 days after the signed agreement and deposit have been received, a draft image of the artwork will be shared via email.

    This review confirms:

    • Overall composition

    • Color direction

    • Scale

    • Design intent

    • General visual balance

    Review Process

    Your commission includes two complimentary revision opportunities.

    First Review

    Draft image shared electronically via email.

    Second Review

    Conducted virtually or in person.

    Third Review (Final Revision, if necessary)

    Conducted virtually or in person.

    Minor refinements are welcomed during these review stages.

    Examples include:

    • Color adjustments

    • Balance refinements

    • Minor compositional changes

    The following constitute significant scope changes and may require a new agreement, revised timeline, and additional fees:

    • Different dimensions

    • New color direction

    • New concept

    • Major redesign

    • Different subject matter

    • Significant compositional restructuring

    Additional revisions beyond the two included revisions are billed at the Artist's current hourly consultation rate.

    Completion Timeline

    Following final client approval, the artwork will be completed within approximately 45 days.

    The timeline may vary depending upon:

    • Drying and curing time

    • Specialty materials

    • Custom framing

    • Protective finishing

    • Shipping preparation

    Should additional time become necessary, the Client will be notified promptly.

    Delivery

    Upon receipt of the remaining balance, delivery arrangements will be scheduled.

    Delivery options include:

    • Studio pickup

    • Local hand delivery

    • Professional installation

    • Domestic shipping

    • International shipping (where available)

    Shipping, insurance, installation, customs fees, framing, taxes, and white-glove delivery services are billed separately unless otherwise specified.

    Risk of loss transfers to the Client upon delivery to the designated shipping carrier or upon completion of personal delivery.

    The Artist is not responsible for delays or damages caused by shipping carriers, weather events, customs inspections, or circumstances beyond reasonable control. Insurance coverage during transit is strongly recommended and can be arranged upon request.

    • Creative planning

    • Scheduling

    • Studio time

    Any amendments must be made in writing and signed by both parties.

    Acceptance

    By signing this Agreement and submitting the required deposit, the Client acknowledges that they have read, understood, and agree to all Commission Terms and Conditions.

    The Artist looks forward to creating an exceptional original artwork that will be enjoyed for generations.
