What Is Commissioned Art and Is It Worth It?
What Is Commissioned Art?
Commissioned art is custom artwork created specifically for an individual client. Instead of buying a finished piece, you work directly with me to design something original, personal, and completely unique.
The Meaning of Commissioned Art
Commissioned artwork is not something pulled from a shelf, it’s artwork built with intention. The collector (or business owner) approaches me with an idea, story, or space in mind. Together, they shape the design and outcome.
For clients, this means:
You choose the size
You choose the subject
You choose the style
You own something no one else has
For me, it’s a chance to create purposefully, to turn a vision into reality.
Why People Commission Art
Commissioned art exists because people want more than decoration. They want identity, something that reflects who they are and what their space stands for.
Many clients commission art because:
Standard décor feels empty
They want art with meaning
They want an investment that lasts
They want emotional connection
They want luxury aesthetics
Whether it’s a mural for a business or a painting for a home, commissioned work feels alive.
Is Commissioned Art Worth It?
Absolutely! And here’s why.
Commissioned art isn’t just about owning something original; it’s about owning a story. It enhances a space, increases visual value, and becomes part of personal or company identity.
For businesses, murals can attract attention, build branding, elevate atmosphere, and increase customer engagement.
For private collectors, commissioned art becomes part of legacy.
Unlike mass-produced décor, custom artwork holds long-term emotional and financial value.

FAQs
How much does commissioned art cost?
Prices depend on size, materials, and complexity. Murals start higher than canvas work, and each quote is customised.
How long does it take?
From concept to completion typically between 2 and 8 weeks, depending on schedule and scale.
Do I need a clear idea first?
No, many clients come with only a feeling or theme. We build the concept together.
Do commissioned artworks increase in value?
Yes. Custom work, especially from exhibiting artists, can rise in value over time.
