Commissions

Original sculpture / Made for your story

Make your
story tangible.

A beginning worth remembering. A milestone worth marking. An identity worth expressing. Together, we can turn it into a work of art.

A piece with a purpose

What story
do you want to tell?

Commissions begin with listening. We’ll explore what matters to you before deciding what the work should become.

Business & legacy

Founding stories, the people behind a business, and the ideas that define an organization.

Place & community

Local history, shared identity, and the landmarks or experiences that connect people.

Personal meaning

A milestone, a memory, or a meaningful idea expressed through an original sculptural work.

Artist & fabricator

One vision.
Hands-on making.

I bring the artistic idea and the practical craft together. Design, material choices, and fabrication all serve the story we are telling.

Every commission is a collaboration, shaped around its setting, purpose, and the people who will experience it.

The commission process

From conversation
to creation.

01 / Discover

Start with the story.

We talk about your idea, its meaning, the setting, your budget range, and any important dates.

02 / Develop

Give the idea a form.

We explore a creative direction, materials, and scale, then agree on the scope and proposal before fabrication begins.

03 / Create

Bring it to life.

The approved concept takes shape in the studio, with project updates and delivery or installation details agreed along the way.

Before we begin

A few useful details.

Do I need a fully formed idea?

No. A story, a reference, a place, or a feeling is enough to start a conversation. We can explore the visual direction together.

How are pricing and timing determined?

Each commission is quoted individually based on the design, size, materials, fabrication, and delivery or installation needs. Share any budget range or deadline early so we can discuss a realistic scope.

What should I include in my inquiry?

Tell me the story behind the piece, where you imagine it living, an approximate size, your location, and any budget or timing considerations. Reference photos are welcome.
