Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to commission a painting?
I charge $0.70 per square inch for canvas sizes smaller than 500 square inches, $0.80 between 550 and 800, and $0.70 for anything larger than 800 square inches. For example, a 15 x 30 costs $450 (15 x 30 = 450 x 1 = $450) and a 24 x 36 costs $600 (24 x 36 = 1864 X .7 = $604). Note: I use professional grade paints and gallery wrapped canvases. Each canvas is finished with a high-gloss, has felt pads, and are wired so they're ready to hang.
How long does it take to paint a commissioned piece?
It usually takes 3 months from initial conversation to delivery; however, I try to work within your timeline and can produce one in as little as 4 weeks.
How do you ship the paintings?
If you are in Iceland, I will hand deliver. I am currently working on the ins-and-outs of shipping internationally and will let you know once this is worked out. Best bet, come visit and take one home with you! ;)
What size canvases are available?
Good question! There are a multitude of canvas sizes ranging from 5in. X 5in. to 4ft. x 5ft. Basically, any size you are looking for is available. This is something I can help you figure out if you are looking for something to fill a particular space.
Can I choose my own colors?
Absolutely! I love to get insight from clients - to know their story, and where they plan to hang the canvas. This gives me additional inspiration as I move forward with the painting.
Do you do portraits?
No, all of my work is abstract. I prefer to work from my imagination and not in confined lines. However, you can let me know of something that you like, for example: a particular landscape or destination, or a mood: lively, mellow, etc. and I will do my best to paint something with that in mind. I do love to work off of your story from my perspective.
