Commission Defined
In
art, a commission is the hiring and payment for
the creation of a work of art, often on behalf of
another. This means that an artist
is employed by an individual to create art for a
specific purpose.
This kind of
art is often done to specification. The artist is
provided with a detailed description of what the
patron desires. The artist’s role is then
often interpretive, and using his artistic vision
will process the required specifications into a
personal work of art.
Specifications
could include size requirements, the works
ability to interact with its environment, or a
personal symbolic connection.
Pricing
The
cost for commissioned work is subjective and
depends on many factors. For
definitive answers, we ask that you establish a dialogue with us. Email consultations are
available with no obligation.
Please
include any thoughts, photographs, architect
renderings, samples, swatches, or size and time
requirements you may have to assist in
determining the basis for the commission, the
artist will follow up with additional questions
or a proposal.
