Commissions

Yours, once

You choose the subject from the existing drawings and name the palette, the room it is going in, or the occasion. I colour it for you over the same printed line as the cards. The colour is done once, for you, and never repeated.

How it works

  1. Tell me the piece and the palette. A kerērū in the greens of a family house. A christening card with the child's name lettered on the back. Bring the room or the occasion and I will work from that.
  2. Half up front. The deposit holds the slot and covers the materials and the frame. The balance is due when you see the finished photograph, before it ships.
  3. Four to six weeks. Watercolour needs drying time between layers and it cannot be hurried without showing.
  4. No revisions once the colour is down. Watercolour cannot be lifted cleanly, so we settle the palette properly before I start rather than after. Take your time on that part; it is the one decision that cannot be undone.

What it costs

From NZ$650 for an A4, framed. A larger piece or a set is quoted before anything is agreed. There is no charge for talking it through and no obligation after.
