    • Shipping is not included in the commission price and will be calculated separately depending on the size of the artwork and shipping destination.
    • Framing is not included in the price, but if you’re interested in purchasing a frame for your piece, feel free to ask me about options.
    • Notice for U.S. customers The U.S. now charges a 50% tariff on original paintings made in Canada. If you live in the United States, you pay this fee when the painting arrives. It is based on the painting’s value, so it adds about 50% to the price listed here. You may also pay other customs fees.Please ask me if you have any questions.

  • PROCESSING & DELIVERY TIME

    Please keep in mind that if you wish to order an oil painting, it requires a few weeks to dry and be varnished before shipping to ensure its quality. So, if you have a specific timeframe for delivery, make sure to submit a request at least 2–3 months in advance to ensure timely delivery.

PROCESS 

Submit your request along with reference photos, sample images for a color palette, or anything that helps convey the painting you’d like.

▾

I will review your request and discuss the details with you via email.

▾

Once we agree on the concept, I will require a 30% deposit before starting the painting.

▾

After completing the painting, I will send you a final image for approval.

▾

Once approved, I will send you a payment link for the remaining balance and shipping fee.
