A painting made for you
Commissions
A portrait of a person. A story with a place in your life.
The conversation
How to begin
Share the idea
Tell Don about the person, story, or occasion you have in mind, and where the painting will live. Photographs and references are welcome.
Discuss the painting
Subject, scale, references, and timing are discussed for each project. If a particular date matters, include it in your first message.
Agree the scope
The approach, schedule, and practical arrangements are agreed before work begins. Each commission starts with a direct conversation with the artist.
