Commissioning Custom Acrylic Paintings: Key Information and Guidelines

When commissioning a stunning acrylic painting, it’s essential to know that the minimum canvas size is 30" x 40". Commission fees are calculated based on the square inch cost of the artwork. Please note that payment is required upfront, and clients are responsible for providing the canvas.

Collaboration on Reference Materials

Both the artist and client must agree on reference materials, particularly photographs, which should include a written release from the photographer. To ensure a smooth creative process, regular Zoom meetings will be conducted to discuss progress and make important artistic choices together.

Ownership and Rights

Upon completion, the artwork becomes the client’s property; however, the artist retains the rights to the image for marketing purposes. Additionally, clients are responsible for arranging the shipping of the finished piece.

The 4-day mentoring agenda
for acrylic painting takes place in an art studio set in natural surroundings
specifically chosen to inspire painters. The program is designed for both
beginners and experienced artists. For beginners, a step-by-step approach will
be utilized to set up a canvas with a focal point, focusing on color mixing
using primary paints while emphasizing aspects such as color value, color bias,
and temperature. Additionally, other topics will be covered based on the needs
of the attending artists, including techniques for painting still and moving
reflections in water, clouds, and perspective. Each day follows a structured
schedule, beginning with morning painting sessions from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM,
followed by demonstrations in the afternoon from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM. The day
concludes with group critiques at 3:00 PM, fostering a collaborative learning
environment.

 On Day 5, participants will focus on gathering
a portfolio of image resources to be used as reference material for their
future work. Appointments will be available at Finn Artists Studio to assist in
preparing photos for painting, ensuring that artists are well-equipped for
their creative endeavors.
