Most common questions
HOW GETTING A COMMISSION WORKS?
All my paintings are painted with oil on canvas. First we talk about the size you'd like to get and what your budget might look like, after we talk about any reference photos you have and some ideas (about the background etc.). Payment is 100 % upfront. Once that's done I start to sketch and after paint the painting. You will be asked what you think about the painting in the painting time and once the painting is done, the oil needs around 14 days to dry enough so it's safe for shipping. After that, you receive the painting.
HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?
Prices vary depending mostly on the size of the painting and how many hours are in one. Down below is a list of some prices and sizes which I have available. I of course also do custom sizes. Payment is upfront.
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE?
The lead time depends on my work load, of the size of the painting you commissioned. I'd say around 2 months. Of course an urgent delivery can be discussed if the date is critical (birthday, occasion etc...).
HOW DO I RECEIVE MY PAINTING?
I do have worldwide shipping available and included in my prices. You do receive the painting stretched on a wooden underframe so the painting comes ready to hang.
DO I NEED TO FRAME IT?
It is your choice to frame or not depending on your preference or the room, however the paintings do not need framing as the edges are also painted so it gives it a 3D effect like the painting is getting out of the wall.

Consider the location where your painting will appear. Whether it’s decorating a large wall in your living room or office or maybe adding character to an elegant corner, choosing the right size ensures that it blends seamlessly with its surroundings.
