CUSTOM-MADE PAINTING

The process of creating a custom oil painting with me is a unique experience, tailored to bring your vision to life.
Here's how it works:

Step 1. Share your vision

The first step is to decide the approximate size of your painting and share any inspiration pictures or descriptions. This information helps me provide an accurate price estimate.

Keep in mind, smaller paintings with less detail will be faster and more affordable. For example, if you have a specific image you want painted with minor adjustments, the process will be faster and more cost-effective.

On the other hand, larger, more complex pieces—like a portrait of multiple people or a concept that requires extensive sketching—will take more time and reflect a higher cost.

The more information you provide, the easier it is for me to create a clear and accurate price estimate tailored to your vision.

(If you live outside of Los Angeles, let me know what city you would like the painting to be shipped to so that I can include the shipping cost in the price)

Step 2. Sketches and Pricing

After we determine the size and subject matter of your custom oil painting, I’ll provide an estimated price, which includes all material and shipping costs.

Once you agree to the price, a 50% non-refundable deposit is required to begin.

I will then create three digital sketches. These sketches will represent approximately 90% of the final painting’s appearance, offering a near-complete preview of the finished work.

Each sketch may vary in detail and cost. You'll review the sketches, choose the one that fits your vision, and provide feedback. I'll revise the sketches until you're satisfied,

Once we finalize the sketch, I will proceed with the painting process, bringing your custom artwork to life.

Step 3. Painting Process and Delivery

Once we've finalized the details. you can sit back and anticipate your custom masterpiece.
I will begin the painting process and keep you informed with progress pictures at various stages. This allows for minor adjustments, such as color changes, to ensure the painting aligns with your vision.

Once the painting is completed, and you are satisfied with the result, I will request the remaining 50% of the payment. After receiving the final payment and your approval of the artwork, I will arrange for the painting to be carefully packaged and shipped to you.

Enjoy the process, and I look forward to delivering your unique piece of art!
