If the enquiry proceeds, the scope, dimensions, medium, price, estimated schedule and practical next steps are confirmed before work begins.

Please do not submit payment details or sensitive personal information through this form.
BEFORE YOU ENQUIRE
Before you send your enquiry
Does submitting the form confirm a commission?
No. Submission begins a conversation. A project proceeds only after its suitability, scope, price, schedule and applicable terms have been agreed.
What information should I include?
Share the subject or idea, intended setting, approximate dimensions, preferred colours or atmosphere, budget range, desired timing and delivery location. If something is undecided, say so.
How are price and timing established?
Price depends on scale, complexity, medium, finishing and delivery requirements. Timing depends on the agreed scope and current studio schedule. Both are confirmed before work begins.
