Commission A Painting

*Prices are for single subject paintings. Further subjects and background features may be additional. Please talk to the artist about this.

How to Commission a Painting

     Once you determine what size painting you want, contact the artist by telephone (above) or email ( jrhawse@jrhstudio.com). Describe the type of commission you want painted and provide any photographic references you would like used. Please clearly state the following:

	Your name, address, and telephone number (contact information)
	Type and description of commission request
	Size of the painting
	If it is a pet portrait, the name of the pet and type
	If you are attaching photos to the email, how many
	A convenient time to discuss the commission by telephone.
	Any requested completion date (e.g. for Christmas)

     The artist will contact you by telephone or email once your request is received.

Painting Materials

    All commissioned pieces are done with premium professional acrylic paints on stretched canvas. They are finished with a durable varnish and are shipped unframed.

    Specific types of canvas can be requested (for example - linen or cotton canvas, canvas board, etc.).

Payment

     1/3 of the final commission price (not including sales tax and shipping/handling) is due at the beginning of the commission process, with the remainder due upon completion. The deposit can be paid on-line or by telephone using a credit card once the commission is accepted by the artist. Checks or money orders by mail will also be accepted.

     Once the commission is accepted and scheduled, you will receive an approximate date for delivery. Generally paintings can be finished within a month; however, during the busy holiday season, the wait time can be considerably longer. Please order holiday season commissions as early as possible.

     If the commissioned painting should be damaged after received, it can be returned to the artist for repair for an additional fee.
