A commissioned painting made exactly to your brief
Limited to three commissions per month each one begins with a real conversation about your colours, your space, and the feeling you want it to hold.
A painting that belongs to you from the start
A commission is a painting made to a specific brief your colours, your dimensions, your mood. It begins not with paint, but with a conversation. Kerrie takes time to understand the space the work will live in, the feeling you want it to create, and any colours or references that resonate with you.
From there, she works through the piece in her Cordalba studio, making the decisions about composition and texture that can't be predetermined because the best parts of abstract work happen in the making, not the planning. You'll receive progress updates, and the opportunity to provide feedback before the work is completed.
Every commission arrives framed and posted free. The limit of three per month is non-negotiable it exists to protect the quality and attention that each piece deserves.
What to expect, step by step
Enquire early
Commissions fill to capacity quickly typically within the first week of each month. Get in touch as soon as you know you'd like a piece to avoid missing out.
Consultation
A conversation by phone or email about the space, the feeling, the colours, and any references you want to share. This is where the brief is established.
Creation
Kerrie creates the work in her studio over several weeks. Progress photos are shared during the process, with the opportunity to provide feedback before the final stage.
Delivery
The finished painting is framed, carefully packaged, and shipped to your address. Postage is included. The work arrives ready to hang.
Three things a commission gives you that a purchase doesn't
Made specifically for your space
Size, colour, and mood are all guided by your brief. A commissioned work is created with your room and your walls in mind from the very beginning.
It holds personal meaning
Knowing a painting was made with your input your colours, your emotional brief gives it a meaning that a work selected from inventory simply cannot carry.
You're part of the process
Progress updates and feedback opportunities mean you're not just buying an outcome you're involved in the journey of the work being made for you.
Commission FAQs
How much does a commission cost?
Pricing depends on the size of the work from small canvases (25×25cm) to large statement pieces (up to 120×100cm). Postage is always included. Contact Kerrie directly for a quote based on your specific requirements a size and general brief is all that's needed to get a figure.
How long does a commission take to complete?
Most commissions are completed within four to eight weeks from the point of confirmation, depending on complexity and current studio workload. If you have a specific deadline for a gift, a property settlement, or an event mention it when you enquire and Kerrie will advise whether it's achievable.
What if I'm not sure what I want the painting to look like?
Most people don't know exactly what they want they know a feeling, a colour range, or a space. That's plenty to work with. The consultation conversation is designed to draw out what you respond to, without needing you to have a finished concept in your head. Kerrie has worked with clients who started with "I just want something warm and calm in my lounge" and ended up with exactly the right piece.
