Commissions…
You can commission me to create a commercial design, a personal artwork or print edition..
I am a professional artist, printmaker, illustrator, creating original artworks for sale and commercial commission with my own two hands. Never AI.
It all begins with your idea. Maybe you have a client asking for a traditional linocut design for their website, book cover, product packaging etc… Perhaps you wish to have an original print created of a special landscape and offer prints to family and friends… Whether you are looking for a fully licenced illustration, a personal gift, or just a special print for yourself, please get in touch.
COSTS, LICENSING & FEES.
Each commissioned project will incur a different cost, depending on size, detail, size of edition etc. My costs are fair (I need to heat my home and feed my family, but I don’t expect a maid to light the fire). I have a current (2026) Artwork Creation hourly rate of £34/ hour (for design, composition, artwork creation/printing).
In order to make my clients original hand-carved relief prints (and resulting high-resolution digital images) I look at the brief, calculate a rough but realistic time scale for each image (from initial sketches, consult and revisions, application of artwork to cutting block, to carving and inking and final printing times).
When creating a quote, I take into careful consideration, the complexity of producing the desired artwork and the precise licensing rights for the intended use, geographical scope and duration of the design. (For example; the use of a design limited to specific product, with a specific production number, for sale in specific territories, will incur a much lower fixed fee/royalty percentage than a project in which the client desires to own usage rights to the work in perpetuity). I work to either a fixed fee or an initial design fee with an agreed commission.
I am open to working for businesses, organisations, charities and individuals with extremely diverse ‘reach’ and thus within many different budgets. I am open to project/ collection based negotiation and would always be happy to discuss fees or brief alterations further.
Please contact me with any ideas and questions you might have.
