MEET THE ARTIST
With over 20 years of professional painting experience, Lucy works in oils and watercolor across portraits, pets, places and personal commissions.
Her approach begins with the story behind the image. She can discuss combining photographs, changing backgrounds and developing a composition that captures the personality and atmosphere you remember.
One clear photo: send the original file if possible. Natural light and visible facial detail help.
Several separate photos: identify who belongs in the painting and the expression you prefer for each person.
An old or damaged photo: share the best scan available. We will discuss what can be represented reliably before agreeing the work.
You do not need a finished brief to start a conversation.
WHAT · WHEN · HOW

WHY COMMISSIONIT EXISTS
commissionit began with a simple frustration: commissioning art felt difficult and inaccessible. Finding the right artist, explaining an idea and knowing where to start could stand between people and something deeply meaningful.
We bring people and creative talent together, with guidance that makes the journey clearer. From a first photograph or a half formed idea to an agreed brief and a finished piece, we help you take the next step.
We want commissioning to become a natural way to celebrate a person, shape a space or express an idea. More meaningful objects in everyday life, and more opportunities for skilled artists and makers.
Your idea belongs in the world. Let’s help you bring it to life.
This portfolio features paintings created by an artist. The separate multiple photo service also offers a digital composition printed on canvas. We confirm the production method in your quote so you know exactly what you are commissioning.
We agree the composition and review stages with you. Your quote sets out the included revisions and when approval is needed. Changes after painting begins may affect the cost and timing.
Share your ZIP code, size and framing preference. Your quote confirms availability, packing, shipping and any charges payable separately. A preferred date is a request until we confirm the schedule.
Tell us what you like and what you would change. We can recommend another artist with a suitable style and availability.
