commissions

Want a one-of-a-kind oil painting that feels like it crawled out of a dream, a memory, or the darker corner of your mind?
You’re in the right place.

I create custom oil paintings ranging from expressive portraits to symbolic, myth-inspired pieces, all with a touch of shadow, elegance (if you want), and just enough mystery to make your guests ask,
"…are you okay?"

  • I offer oil painting commissions only, in the style you see across my work:

    • Portraits (moody, emotional, dramatic — not your school photo)

    • Dark, surreal, or symbolic concepts

    • Mythology-inspired pieces

    • “I had a weird idea” projects — my specialty

    Everything is hand-painted with professional oil paints on canvas or wood panel.
    No AI. No shortcuts. No soulless mass production.
    Just art. Real art.

  • Because you want something personal.
    Something emotional.
    Something that looks like it feels something.

    My process blends:

    • symbolism

    • emotion

    • mythology

    • a touch of darkness

    • and a whole lot of “I understood the assignment”

    • and sometimes sensuality

    The result?
    A painting that becomes part of your story, not just decor.

  • 1. Tell Me What You Want

    Send your idea, any reference photos, the mood, colours, size, and anything symbolic you want included.
    If you’re unsure, just describe the vibe. I speak fluent vibe.

    2. I Send You a Quote & Timeline

    I’ll follow up with:

    • pricing (which depends on complexity and size of the piece)

    • estimated time

    • clarifying questions

    • a concept direction

    Once you approve everything, we move on.

    3. Pay the Deposit

    A 50% non-refundable deposit holds your spot and lets me begin the painting. After the deposit is done, ill start working on the concept and will send you a few sketches before starting the painting.



    4. I Paint Your Piece

    This part takes time (oil paint is slow and i’m a cursed perfectionist).
    You’ll receive:

    • progress updates

    • a near-final preview

    • a final image before varnish

    Major changes can’t be made later, so we lock in the concept at the beginning.

    5. Final Payment & Delivery

    Once finished and dry, you pay the remaining 50%. (the second half of the payment can be divided in 2, the painting will be shipped after the last payment).
    Then I package the painting safely and send it your way, tracked, protected, and looking fabulous.

  • When you reach out, please include:

    • reference images

    • a description of your idea

    • preferred size

    • the mood/colour palette

    • deadline (if any)

    • anything meaningful or symbolic

    More details → more accuracy → more beautiful drama.
