Michael is only accepting a limited number of custom painting commissions each year. If you feel that your story belongs on a canvas, you can now join the waitlist and email him your idea. Michael will reach out to you personally as soon as a spot opens up, Your vision is important to him, describe it in detail, as both of you can bring it to life together.
How It Begins- Every piece starts with a conversation. We’ll explore your vision, whether that’s a feeling, a story, a memory, or an idea you can’t quite put into words yet. You can share references, colors, energy, or simply the intention behind the piece. From there, Michael will translate that into something visual and alive.
Concept & Direction- Once Michael understands your vision, he shapes a clear direction for the artwork, including size, tone, and overall composition. This ensures we’re aligned before anything begins.
Investment & Agreement - You’ll receive a quote and estimated timeline based on the scope of the piece. If everything feels right, we’ll move forward with a simple agreement that outlines the process and expectations.
Deposit - A 50% non-refundable deposit is required to reserve your spot. This allows me to begin the creative process and secure time and materials dedicated to your piece.
Creation Process - This is where your vision comes to life. He creates intuitively, allowing the piece to evolve naturally while staying rooted in your original intention. You’ll receive updates at key moments, giving you space to reflect and offer input before the final layers are completed.
Finalization- Once the artwork is complete, Michael will send final images for your approval. Any remaining balance is due at this stage before the piece is released.
Delivery- Your artwork will be carefully packaged and shipped, or hand-delivered if you’re local. It will arrive ready to be experienced, not just displayed.
A Note on the Process- Each piece is more than a commission—it’s a collaboration. Michael doesn't just paint what you see, he paints what you feel. The result is something deeply personal, intuitive, and one of a kind.
