? Frequently Asked Questions ?
I'm not sure exactly what I want. Can I still commission a piece?
Absolutely! You don't need a fully formed idea. A single word, a mood, or a short story is enough — together we'll let it grow. I'll listen, observe, and translate your story into a unique visual form. Through interpretation and imagination, your artwork gradually comes to life.
How long does it take to complete a commissioned artwork?
The timeframe depends on the size, complexity, and my current schedule. On average, projects take between 3 and 8 weeks from approval. If you have a specific deadline, please let me know, and we'll explore how to make it work.
How much does a custom artwork cost?
Starting prices are €250 for an A5-sized work on paper, framed. This includes a consultation to discuss your ideas, one round of corrections, and all materials.
The final price depends on size, materials, complexity, and your specific wishes.
For recognizable portraits, an additional fee applies due to the extra time and detail required.
After our initial conversation, you'll receive a clear, transparent quote — no surprises.
Is framing included?
Not necessarily. Framing is optional. If you prefer to choose your own frame, I can deliver the artwork beautifully finished and carefully packaged without a frame.
I also work on wooden panels or blocks, which can be displayed without a frame. These blocks give the artwork a three-dimensional, sculptural feel, making it unique and eye-catching.
Yes! You can create a personalized artwork for someone else or give a gift voucher so the recipient can experience the creative process themselves.en voor iemand anders, of een cadeaubon geven zodat de ontvanger zelf het proces kan doorlopen.
What if I'm not completely satisfied with the artwork?
My goal is to create a piece that truly resonates with you. One correction round is included, allowing for minor adjustments. Please note that significant changes may incur additional costs.
Can I cancel or return a commission?
As each piece is custom-made, cancellations or returns aren't possible once the process has started. If there's a genuine issue with the artwork, we will work together to find a fair solution.
