Commissions

Turn Your Song Into a Painting

 

Some moments stay with us because of the music tied to them.

A wedding song. A first dance. A piece of music that brings back a person, a place, or a feeling.

I create paintings inspired by meaningful songs - using fragments of lyrics, musical notation, and layered colour to capture what that music holds for you.

Each piece is personal. No two are the same.


What You Can Commission

You might consider a commission if you’d like to:

  • Celebrate a wedding or anniversary through your song
  • Capture a meaningful memory connected to music
  • Create a one-of-a-kind, deeply personal gift
  • Translate a feeling, word, or moment into a painting
  • Add live painting to your wedding reception as both entertainment and keepsake*

While many pieces are inspired by music, I also accept a limited number of commissions for portraits, special places, and other meaningful subjects.


How It Works

  1. Share your idea
    Tell me about your song, memory, or concept—simple or detailed.
  2. Concept & direction
    I’ll translate your idea into a visual approach aligned with my style.
  3. Painting process
    I’ll keep you updated at key stages.
  4. Final approval
    Once you’re happy, the painting is completed, varnished (for oils/acrylics), and prepared for delivery.

*Live Wedding Song Painting

Can't decide between a keepsake and live entertainment? Now you can have both. I can paint your couple's wedding song live at the reception — sheet music, lyrics, and all — while guests watch it come to life in real time. Approximately 6 hours at the venue.

The painting is completed and varnished at the studio afterward, and delivered to the couple as a finished piece.

To prepare, I'll need from the couple in advance:

  • Their wedding song and which lyrics they'd like embedded
  • Their colour theme or palette
  • Confirmation of painting time available at the venue (approximately 5 hours)

Pricing: Standard painting price + $300 event fee. Travel beyond 50km from Mississauga is additional.


My Style

My work is expressive and interpretive.

Rather than creating an exact photographic replica, I focus on capturing mood, emotion, and essence through colour, texture, and composition.

If you’re looking for realism or precise replication, I may not be the right fit—and that’s completely okay.


Pricing & Payment

Pricing varies depending on the subject and size of the commission.

 

For wedding song paintings, sizing and pricing details are available on my Wedding Songs & Memories page.

For live wedding song painting, standard painting price applies plus a $300 event fee. Travel beyond 50km from Mississauga is additional. 

For all other commissions — special places, meaningful subjects, and music-inspired pieces outside the wedding song series — pricing is shared once I understand your idea and what you're looking for. 

 

Payment structure:

  • 50% deposit to reserve your commission
  • 50% upon approval before delivery

Shipping is additional. A flat rate of $30 applies to wedding song paintings shipped anywhere in Canada and the mainland US, fully insured and tracked. Local pickup is available for all commissions.


Let’s Begin

If you have a song, a memory, or an idea in mind, I’d love to hear it.
