How It Works

  • Commission Process & Payment Terms

    We will discuss your vision, subject matter, and the emotions and feelings you hope to evoke. I will create a general photo source and share it with you before I begin painting on the canvas.

    Due to high demand, I am currently only accepting commission requests with a deposit. Please note, custom paintings and sketches can take 1-6 months to complete. All commissions are available for worldwide shipping. The deposit is non-refundable and will be applied toward the total cost of your commission. In certain cases, if you decide not to proceed with the commission after payment, you may apply the deposit toward products on my website, on a case-by-case basis.

  • Available Media & Special Projects

Artwork Commission Agreement

Initial Inquiry: Contact me with your request.

  • Concept Discussion: I will guide you through the discussion, and we discuss the details needed.
  • Quote/Contract: I confirm the final terms.
  • Final Approval: I show you a mockup piece digitally (this is a concept design reference source. I do not utilize hyper-realism in my artistic voice).
  • 50-75% finish: I show you the 50-75% completion stage. At that point, if there are some items you'd like changed, we can discuss options. Please note, I may not be able to meet all requests. If you're happy with the overall progress, I will move forward and finish the painting.
  • Final Payment: I send you an invoice with the total.
  • Delivery: Artwork shipped to you once total is paid and varnish is dried.
  • Payment: Payment upon approval. My accepted payment method is through an invoice emailed to you from my Stripe account.
  • Turnaround Time: As part of the quote phase, I will provide a clear estimate of how long it takes to complete a commission based on its complexity and my schedule.
  • Revisions: If there are changes you feel should be made to the final art, and they are possible, I will provide one revision.
  • Copyright & Usage: I own the copyright and reproduction rights to any original art I create for you. The physical original belongs to you *once paid in full. You may not reproduce the print, the electronic image, or any in-process images I provide during production. You are free to re-sell the physical painting, but please credit me and provide a link to my website for the buyer. You may post on social media photos of your print in your home or office space.

From the Heart: Real Collector Testimonials

I found Kristy and commissioned her to do a painting on my scuba tank. I had a bucket list of items I wanted painted, and she blew it out of the water. It is by far my favorite piece of art I own—and I have quite a few pieces of fine art! This piece made me so emotional. I love it!

I also had two of my turtles' photos painted by the artist. It brings a whole new appreciation to my passion for diving. I bring pictures home from the ocean and tell my daughters about the “friends” I saw that day. They get so excited to see my pictures of new sea creature friends and to hear the stories!

This sweet and amazing artist, Kristy Vascovich, painted two of my turtle friends from those pics and featured them in her art show this weekend. I was so proud to walk in and not only see the gorgeous work of my new friend and how well she is doing with her art—but to see my turtle friends brought to life through her talent!

The best part was bringing them home and watching my girls see how beautifully my “friends” turned out. I am so proud of you, Kristy!

Cancellation Policy: Cancellation is not ideal, but it happens. I also offer payment plans. I allow commissioned orders of original artwork to be cancelled in certain cases. Should the image be very unique (i.e. a specific person’s image), the deposit is non-refundable, but you are not obligated to pay the remainder. The hope is that we can work together on another project in the future, so I will do what I can to appease the situation or offer other options—however, it is case by case and not promissory.
