Full-service Commissions
I am a digital artist with a corporate background in business development, project management, and IT. I love getting stuck into creative projects, but I also appreciate a good system, workflow, and spreadsheet. When partnering for a corporate commission, expect a fun, hassle-free, efficient, and professional experience supported by all the creativity of an innovative artist and the organisation of a corporate boffin.

Build a Package
1. Illustration or artwork?
Artworks are fully detailed, painted pieces with a background and multiple foreground elements, such as people, buildings, or objects, priced between HK$10,000 and $30,000 per artwork depending on size. Illustrations are individual, painted drawings of one element, such as a person, a building, or an object, priced at HK$5,000 per illustration. Does your project require one, the other, or both?
2. What size?
​If you're interested in one or more artworks, what size should they be? Pricing depends on the size of the art: A6 or smaller being HK$10,000, A5 being HK$20,000, and A4 or larger being HK$30,000.
3. Include mockups?
Mockups can help you explore different directions or ideas before committing to a single one. Each mockup comprises a rough sketch, reference photos, and annotations to describe what a painting would look like once finished. You’re free to order as many mockups as you like, select a favourite or merge multiple into a new idea.
4. Add time for edits
Most commissions require at least 5-10 hours of feedback-based changes to explore new ideas that arise during the collaboration. Hours of feedback-based changes are billed at HK $500 per hour when booked in advance of starting the project.

The agreement reflects the terms of the commission. After reviews, signatures, and receipt of the deposit, the project can begin.

This is an optional phase. Mockups are presented in a PDF that outlines the confirmed brief and offers concepts, references, and rough sketches for a final artwork.

Sketches offer an unpainted drawing and notes for the final artwork presented in a PDF. On a call or over email, we’ll discuss feedback on a call or over email before painting begins.

The final painting reflects all the feedback, conversations, and goals from previous calls. It will be a digital art file delivered to you as specified in the brief.
