I can work with you to create something individual and unique. You may wish to commission a painting to:
-
Commemorate a wedding or other special event
-
Have something special created that reminds you of a particular memory or a loved one
-
Bring to life an idea or to convey a certain mood or a particular colour scheme

Acquire a painting of mine that you have seen on the website that has already been sold or that you would like in a different size or something similar
You can also commission a painting as a personal gift for a friend or family member, for example:
-
As a graduation present
-
As a wedding present
-
As a birthday present
-
As a retirement present
-
As an anniversary present

How to commission a painting:
1. If you have a special painting in mind please contact me at commissions@liamaraart.com.
Information to include in the email:
-
The size or approximate size of the proposed painting
-
A clear, high resolution photo or photos of what you would like a painting of. Please avoid flash or high contrast sunlight/dark shadows/filters. If you are unsure about whether a certain photo is suitable, you can email it to me and I will be happy to provide feedback. Please let me know if there are any specific changes that you would like made to the subject matter and I will try to accommodate your wishes.
-
Any aspects of my previous paintings that you particularly like and would like me to emulate
-
If there is a meaning, story or inspiration behind the artwork
-
Any favourite or least favourite colours
-
Anything else you feel I should know
​
2. After discussing the painting with you and you are happy with the proposed painting, select the size option from the menus below and submit the purchase.
​
3. Once your order is ready, I will send you a proof of the painting for you to view. You will be able to approve it or send me your comments if you require edits. I offer two rounds of editing free of charge.
​
How long does it take to finish a painting?:
I will work as quickly as possible, however, I work with oil paints which have take some time to dry. Paintings normally take up to 2 weeks to complete depending on size and complexity. Once the painting is completed, I will need to wait until it is dry enough to safely package for shipping. Typically for my paintings, this takes around 2 weeks to be safe. I can discuss the estimated times with you for your particular painting if you have questions.
