Art Commissions

If you have beautiful pictures from a meaningful trip, I can recreate the colors, textures, and feelings in a personalized painting for you. Commissioning a painting transforms a photograph into a vibrant, hand-painted work of art to cherish for years. Fill out the form below to tell me more about your vision. 

Jodi's painting is a refreshing reminder of a wonderfully rare day on the ferry to Vancouver Island. Blue everywhere, but the mood so upbeat and calm. A great start to an island vacation!

Connecting Through Art

I completed this deeply meaningful commission for a colleague's mother, which honors the memory of her grandson with her connection to the full moon. I added a set of footprints to the painting as a tribute to him, which the family cherished. 

Sunhaven Place - Brent Nieman Commission Dec 2025
Home

Home is Where the Heart is!

The two-story house was completed (Dec 2025) as a Christmas present for a client's wife, to acknowledge to her that where they've built their lives together and raised their children is the most important place there is to him, which she loved!

I feel very connected and thoroughly enjoy painting architecture, because buildings really hold a presence in our lives. A house portrait is an ideal keepsake to give a loved one, whether you're in the process of creating memories together or downsizing after a lifetime of memories.

Recreating Memories

I recreated a cherished memory of this client's best fishing day of his life. Not only is it the biggest fish he ever caught, but he shared the experience with his Dad and two best friends.  

Client with his painting

The client recently contacted me (Dec 2025) for another commission from the same trip, requested to be completed in greyscale. This one is of his best friend's experience and is being given as his 50th birthday gift - Craig's Catch.
