A PAINTING COMMISSION IS A UNIQUE WAY TO COMMEMORATE A SPECIAL OCCASION, SUCH AS AN ENGAGEMENT. A BESPOKE PAINTING BRINGS YOUR FAVORITE PLACES AND CHERISHED MEMORIES TO LIFE, CREATING A STUNNING BACKDROP FOR YOUR HOME.

For one couple, a painting commission beautifully captured the light and beauty of their engagement evening in Ermones, Corfu.

1. Sharing The Idea Behind The Seascape Painting Commission For A Special Engagement Gift

First off, Natasha got in touch with me to share her mood board of photos taken from the evening her partner proposed on a beach lit by a beautiful sunset.

She didn’t have a single photo that captured the entire scene with the right lighting, as it darkened when the tide came in. Thankfully, we're not limited by photos! I can create the desired colours, light, and atmosphere using a range of images.

The initial stage of communicating and sharing ideas is an enjoyable stage in the process for both parties! It’s an opportunity for me to truly understand your vision, both visually and emotionally, so I can craft a piece that captures the essence of your desired scene.

2. Getting On The Same Page

Not all commissions require thumbnail sketches, but they can be very helpful for visualizing how composition, colors, and focal points will work together when multiple images are being used to inspire the painting.

Thumbnails are very quick sketches I use to help visually explain ideas in our consultation to make sure we are on the same page.

I usually ask for 3-5 paintings of mine that you’d like your painting to be inspired by. It helps with our conversation and gives me an idea of how you’d like your painting painted.

Natasha shared a few she loved specifically: “the vibrancy of these paintings capture a pure joy and contentment of the moment”

1. Wild & Free

2. Hold Onto Your Hope

3. Secret Place Upon The Rock

3. The Unveiling

Once a painting commission is complete I send a final photograph to make sure you're happy and we can also discuss framing or any other requirements you might have too!

This seascape art commission to celebrate an special engagement is more than just creating a piece of art. It serves as a reminder of the beauty in this couples lives, the shared treasured memories, and the endless possibilities that life holds, offering continual inspiration and joy in their home
