Commissioned work

Your portrait
in my handwriting

A painting created especially for you. Personal, intuitive and made to belong in your space.

Every commission is personal, but there is always room for intuition. The process has structure, but also freedom — that is where the painting comes alive.

01

Getting to know you

We start with a conversation about the portrait, colours, atmosphere and the space where the painting will live.

Sketch & colour direction

Before painting further, I send a first sketch and colour direction so the overall feeling can be aligned.

The painting takes shape

During the painting process, you receive photos and updates as the work develops.

“The best commissions are conversations. We listen, we look, and we let the painting find its own voice.”
