Commissions are open again for 2020. Please note I'm only painting twenty Unpopular Penguins this year. 10% from each Penguin commissioned will be donated to the RFS. Thank you firies!
Commission a new 'Unpopular Penguin' painting
Impressionistic, impasto re-imaginings of Penguin paperback book covers. You can choose the principal colour, the title of the book, and how distorted the lettering is. The acrylic paint is built up in many layers, giving a thick, textured surface. The chaotic drips and brushwork form a dynamic with the clean design of the originals. These paintings have
painted sides, and are ready to hang without requiring framing.
The sizes I generally paint, with prices in AUD are -
76cm x 51cm $660
91cm x 61cm $940
101cm x 76cm $1200
122cm x 91cm $1800

Commission a new 'Monopoly' painting
Big, chaotic, pop art reinterpretations of sections of the classic 'Monopoly' board. You can choose a painting of a single street (or railway station, 'GO', 'Free Parking', 'Chance', etc), or a longer painting with several streets and places, arranged however you like. What you choose will determine the size and shape of the canvas, so I will provide a quote based on what you decide. The acrylic paint is built up in many layers, giving a thick, textured surface. The chaotic drips and brushwork form a dynamic with the clean design of the originals. These paintings have painted sides and are ready to hang, without requiring framing.

The process of commissioning a new, original painting -
Just contact me and let me know what you'd like. I'll give you a quote, and if you agree on it, I will email you an invoice with my bank details, so that you can pay a 20% deposit. When the work is complete (currently 2-3 months), I'll email you photos of the finished painting. You can then request changes, and when you're satisfied with it, I will send you another invoice so that you can pay the remaining balance. If you prefer, you can also speak to any of my galleries (my prices are the same across all galleries and direct).
Upon payment, the painting will be delivered to you (I generally use 'TNT couriers' within Australia).
Unless otherwise agreed upon, my paintings are acrylic on canvas. The paintings are stretched on a frame 3cm deep, with painted edges. They are ready to hang (with D-hooks and a wire across the back) and will not require framing.
Happy to answer any questions!
