Commissions

A custom bird painting, made just for you

There's something special about a painting of your bird, the one that visits your feeder every morning, the one you spotted on a once-in-a-lifetime birding trip, or the one that reminds you of someone you love.

Commission tickets are available for 2026. Here's how the process works:

💬

1. Inquiry

Tell me about the bird you'd like painted. Share photos, stories, and any details about size and framing preferences.

✏️

2. Sketch

I'll create an initial ink sketch for your review. We'll work together to make sure the composition captures exactly what you're looking for.

🎨

3. Final Piece

Once the sketch is approved, I'll complete the watercolor painting and deliver it to you, framed and ready to hang, or as a flat original.


Pricing

Commission pricing depends on the size and complexity of the piece. As a starting guide:

  • Small (5×7 to 6×8 inches): from $100
  • Medium (8×10 to 10×10 inches): from $175
  • Large (11×14 to 12×12 inches): from $275
  • Extra large (18×24 inches): from $400

Multi-bird compositions, detailed backgrounds, or unusual formats may be priced differently. I'll always provide a clear quote before we begin.
