When it comes to art work everyone holds their own opinion to what is an ‘appropriate cost’. Let’s just name it for what it is. It seems a huge amount of money for most people for a painting.

I get it.

Most of the time I couldn’t afford my own work! Many think my work is too cheap for what it is. Many also think it is too expensive. Whichever the view, not many shy away from sharing their opinion with me. Just as well I try to be professional and not comment on the salary they receive for their job!

What matters to me above everything is that the painting speaks to you. The title might even speak into your life.

If you are in a position to buy then you can purchase immediately from me on my website and it can all be done and dusted in the blink of an online click and on your wall asap.

However, if circumstances mean that it is out of your immediate reach then I’m now offering monthly payments. All you have to do is send me a message about the one you like and I will mark it as sold, we will sort out a plan to pay it up and once paid, you can lay your hands upon it. Cost of living is bleeding many dry but good things come to those who wait 😉 Let’s not feel awkward about it.

If you are looking for a commission it works a little differently. I take a 50% upon booking and then the rest of the payment when complete. Legal contracts mean there isn’t much flexibility on this option…..

My paintings take hours, often months of work (depending on size) and it is my craft. I don’t just give them away (unless I reeeeeeaaaaalllly like you), they are priced at what I personally find fair to charge for what goes into them (not forgetting all the supplies it takes to make them). The art world is a saturated market and if the price point of my work isn’t for you then I’d gently encourage you to have a look around at other artists who are doing other wonderful things.

10% from every painting I sell goes towards supporting my chosen charity, so not only are you supporting a small business, you are supporting something much bigger and changing lives. All from a painting!!

Beautiful.

(If it matters to you, yup I went to art school. I have a great deal of student debt for sitting in lectures all about how staring at a blank canvas was in fact art, and how burning everything you made, was in one case, considered an excellent interpretation of all that had been deemed worthy of receiving a first class degree. That is NOT my vibe. I create because my mind can’t breathe if I don’t. I create because art can change the atmosphere in a room, I create because art can weave back up the broken, I create because it is my calling. I create because it opens doors, starts conversations and can change lives.)
