The commission process
Embarking on a commission with Michelle Hewett is a collaborative journey, ensuring your vision is realised with personal care and artistic integrity. Michelle prioritises understanding what is important about your chosen subject, often visiting the site with you to gain a deeper perspective.
Initial consultation
Michelle likes to visit the location or building to be painted, taking photos and making initial sketches. She is happy to incorporate any personal details or use photos of features that may not be present at the time of commissioning.
Gaining perspective
Michelle works closely with you to understand your perspective on the subject matter. Visiting the site together ensures that the final piece reflects your personal connection and the essence of the location.
Creation
Once the angle, colours, and details are agreed upon, Michelle will meticulously work on the painting at her studio, bringing the agreed vision to life with her signature style.
Subjects and sizes
Michelle particularly enjoys creating paintings of old buildings or landscapes that feature a building. While most commissions are completed in two standard sizes (mounted 14 x 11 inches or 20 x 16 inches), any size can be considered to suit your specific needs.
Capturing cherished buildings
Michelle's passion lies in capturing the character and history of old buildings and local scenes. Her unique approach ensures that each painting is not just a representation, but a heartfelt depiction of a cherished subject.
Flexible sizing options
Whether you envision a compact piece or a larger statement artwork, Michelle is accommodating. Standard sizes are available, but custom dimensions are always a possibility to perfectly fit your space and requirements.
