COMMISSIONS

Kelly accepts a limited number of commissions each month! Commissions timelines are always subject to the artist's schedule, so a few months notice is always apprciated.  Get in touch for more details!

HERE'S HOW IT WORKS:

              Step 1:  THE EMAIL/INITIAL DETAILS
EMAIL me here.

• Have a price range in mind, and using that I will give you options for your commission based on the following specifications:
  • Substrate material:
    • Stretched canvas (for acrylic & mixed media projects)​
    • Watercolor paper (for watercolor & acrylic/india inks)
    • Canvas paper (for watercolor and acrylic/india inks)
  • Size
  • Any mats/frames
• Have Aesthetics in mind:
  • List 2-4 colors you would definitely like to see in the painting and 2-4 that you would like to omit (If any) Feel free to use a Pinterest board for color inspiration.
  • OR, name one of my abstract works you love, and I can create one that is in similar*
    
    Step 2:  THE PROCESS

• I often ask for a poem, a song, a story, or a section of scripture that is meaningful to you when creating a work for you. These things give me layers of meaning to work from and help me to create work that is deeper and more personal for you.
• I  will take the above info and begin to make stylistic and aesthetic choices based on my style and creative process. I will send an email with a game plan or confirmation of details for your approval.

• I will send you an invoice for the deposit - 50% of the total. When this has been paid I will get you on the calendar and give you an estimated timeline. I can only take a limited number of commission orders a month so be sure to contact me for an estimated start date if you have firm deadlines.

              Step 3: The painting.

• I will work on the piece for up to 8 weeks. Upon completion I will send you photos of your lovely custom painting or you are welcome to come see it in person at the studio if you are local. At times I will send progress photos to ask for input or to get approval.

*exact copies of abstract pieces are impossible, unless they are giclee prints. I can create pieces that are very very similar, but my original paintings are so layered and there are elements that are not possible to reproduce exactly.


PAYMENT
I will email you an invoice that you can pay online via Paypal. A 50% deposit will be due upon agreement, and the final 50% payment will be due after approval, before product is shipped. Note: if you live in  Missouri sales tax will be added.

SHIPPING
Shipping will be billed upon receipt via online invoice, or you are welcome to pick up the painting if you are local. Note all paintings over 30x40" will be shipped rolled in a tube along with stretcher bars for re-stretching.

RETURNS
All sales are final. 100% refund if item(s) arrive damaged, otherwise no returns.
