Is there a memory or location you would like as a painting
If your answer is YES then perhaps a commission could make this a reality.

Commissions are a 2 way process, as we begin the collaboration neccessary to ensure your concept and vision are also mine . This is the only way I can paint in my particular style, but still stay true to your aspirations
