The Commission Process

1. Initial Consultation

Submit your commission request through our online form, including:

• Details about your car (make, model, year, color)

• Reference photos

• The story behind your vehicle

• Your vision and preferences

• Preferred timeline

2. Review & Confirmation

Within 48 hours, I'll review your request and respond with:

• Availability and estimated timeline

• Final pricing based on your specifications

• Any clarifying questions

3. Deposit & Queue

• 10% non-refundable deposit required to begin work

• Deposit secures your place in my commission queue

• Covers initial materials, planning, and time commitment

• Final production cost will be made available to you before I commence.

4. Creation Phase

Studio Commissions: 6-8 weeks from deposit
Live Painting: Scheduled minimum 3 months in advance

I create each piece with full artistic discretion based on our consultation. Each work captures the essence and character of your vehicle through my unique interpretive lens.

5. Documentation & Preview

Before final delivery, you'll receive:

• Photographs of the completed work.

6. Final Payment & Delivery

• Balance due upon completion

• Shipping/delivery arranged (costs additional for studio work)

• For live paintings: work delivered on-site

Artistic Integrity Policy

My Creative Approach

Each commission is created as a complete artistic vision - a moment captured in time. Like a live performance, once the work is finished, it exists as a unified statement. I work with full creative discretion while honouring the consultation and vision we've discussed together.

No Revisions on Completed Work

I do not make alterations, adjustments, or revisions to finished pieces. The one-hour creation process (or studio equivalent) produces a singular artistic interpretation. Endless revisions would compromise the spontaneous energy and integrity of the forward momentum that defines my work.

If You're Unsatisfied

In the rare circumstance where the final work doesn't resonate with you:

• I will refund your full payment minus production costs.

• Production costs cover materials, clock mechanism, documentation, and creation time

• The artwork will be destroyed rather than sold elsewhere

• This ensures my work only exists in collections where it's genuinely valued

This policy protects both of us: You're never obligated to keep art you don't love, and my work maintains its integrity by only living with collectors who genuinely connect with it.

Commissioning Philosophy

Forward Momentum

My work embodies the concept of forward motion - the automotive spirit of progress, speed, and momentum. When you commission a piece, you're entering a creative partnership built on trust and mutual respect.

Collaboration with Creative Freedom

I welcome your input, stories, and vision. However, the final artistic interpretation rests with me. This balance creates work that's both personal to you and artistically authentic.

Quality Guarantee

Every commission receives my complete artistic attention and technical skill. I stand behind the quality of materials, craftsmanship, and artistry in every piece.
