A commissioned painting is a custom, original artwork that is made exclusively for you. Each piece is hand-painted and signed by me.
I would be delighted to create a custom piece for you. My specialties are:
Do not hesitate to contact me, even if your subject is not included in the three above.
The turnaround time ranges from 1 to 3 weeks, depending on my current workload and the details of the art piece.
If you have an idea for a piece please contact me to discuss your vision and your needs. You can send me reference photos, inspirational works, colors, etc. I am flattered to receive any request, however I will only work on commissioned paintings that align with my vision and body of work.
The cost of a commission painting in Hong Kong depends on different factors. These range from the size of the piece, to the technique used; from whether the piece should include a frame or not, to its complexity.
To give you some ballpark estimates, I have created a table of examples:
Size | Type | Frame | Price in HKD | Price in USD |
A3 (29.7 x 42 cm) | 1 Person or Pet Portrait (pencil or watercolor) | Unframed | HK$2,000 | $250 |
A4 (29,7 x 21 cm) | 1 Pet Portrait (watercolor, without background) | Unframed | HK$1,200 | $150 |
A4 (29,7 x 21 cm) | 1 Person Portrait (pencil) | Framed | HK$2,000 | $200 |
A5 (14.8 x 21 cm) | 1 Pet Portrait (watercolor, with background) | Unframed | HK$800 | $100 |
