2026 Commission Availability
Current Status: Accepting Preliminary Enquiries
Given our selective process and extensive timeline, we encourage serious collectors to begin conversations early.
Commission agreements are typically finalised 6-8 months before work commences
With only one to two commissions accepted annually, allows each project to become a more intimate collaboration between artist and collector.
This selective process ensures every commissioned work receives the dedication, research and artistic vision it deserves.
Initial Consultation
Every commission begins with an in depth conversation about your subject, your connection to it, and your artistic preferences. Whether celebrating a beloved home, commemorating a special achievement, or capturing a meaningful moment, we invest time in truly understanding what this work means to you.
