Painting Commissions
Collected. Not Decorated.
A commissioned painting is not about filling a wall.
It is about creating a work that belongs—one that feels inevitable in the space it inhabits.
I work with clients who want art that reflects their environment, their values, and the way they live. Each commission is thoughtfully developed to complement the architecture, light, and rhythm of your home, resulting in a piece that feels both personal and enduring.
My role is not only to paint, but to guide you—removing uncertainty from the process and helping you make confident, informed decisions about your walls.
The Commission Experience
Clear. Intentional. Personal.
Every project begins with listening and ends with a painting that feels fully resolved in its setting.
1. Discovery
We begin with a consultation—virtually or in person—where I learn about your space, how it’s used, and what you want the artwork to contribute. This includes reviewing photos, dimensions, sightlines, and existing design elements so the piece is considered within the whole, not in isolation.
2. Direction
Based on our conversation, I develop a clear visual direction. This may include palette exploration, compositional studies, and scale recommendations to ensure the work fits the space—not just physically, but emotionally.
3. Creation
Your painting is created in my studio using my signature approach: layered color, expressive mark-making, and an intuitive response to light and landscape. Throughout this stage, the work is guided by the original intent we established together.
4. Completion & Installation
Each commission is professionally finished and prepared for its final home. I coordinate delivery and white-glove installation through a trusted local partner so the artwork is placed with care and precision.
Designed with Intention.
No two homes—and no two clients—are the same.
That is why each commission is a singular work, created for a specific place and moment. The goal is not to follow trends, but to create art that feels settled, confident, and lasting—work that deepens its connection to the space over time.
Considering a Commission
If you’re interested in exploring a custom piece, I invite you to reach out. I’m happy to discuss your space and help you determine the best direction forward.
Let’s begin with a conversation.
How do you want to feel in your space?
Many of my clients come to me with a feeling they want to capture—something deeply personal, like a ritual, a view, or a moment of transition that grounds them.
For this commission, the goal was clear: to bring the after-work exhale into the home. “When we cross that bridge back onto the island,” they said, “we feel free. We want the painting to capture that.”
We collaborated on a custom color palette, sized the canvas to fit a cozy nook, and worked from a favorite photo taken from the top of the bridge to Tierra Verde.
Final result: a vivid, soulful reminder of freedom and flow—framed, installed, and full of good energy.

A view becomes a memory. A memory becomes a painting. And suddenly, your space tells a story.
"I’d like to take this moment to personally vouch for Anne’s stupendous work and talent! I hired Anne to paint a custom piece of a favorite scene to match the turquoise colors of my bedroom. She went on a few location scouting trips and then created a mini version to approve the colors and dimensions prior to working on the final masterpiece. I love it! It's absolutely perfect."
