Commissions

A commission by Alanna Peters is a unique process, infusing the client’s vision and Alanna’s artistic voice to create a truly one of a kind piece of art. This opportunity incorporates one-on-one collaboration, direct communication with the artist and regular photo updates of progress.

Styles and subjects?

Alanna works within her own artistic voice and style, but can incorporate elements of portraiture, landscape, still life or abstraction. Inspiration for commissions generally comes from previous works completed by Alanna, or inspired by the client's own photographs.  All commissions will be painted with oil paints.

Pricing?

Prices are around $3.70 per square inch.

Is there a deposit?

There is a 50% deposit to secure your commission. 25% deposit is refundable at any point of the commission process, and can either be canceled by Alanna or the client. 25% is non refundable to cover materials cost and initial work. The remaining half shall be paid upon completion of the painting. Alanna will send an invoice electronically, which can be paid with a credit card, Paypal and/or cash.

What is the timeline?

After the 50% deposit is received, the client is added to the commission wait list. Alanna works on commissions in the order they are received. Currently, the commission turnaround time is 3-6 months.

Are commissions framed?

Commission are unframed. Frames can be ordered for an additional fee. Typically they are floater frames and come in black, white or natural wood. Framing quotes will be provided based on size needed and typically add 2 inches to the canvas size.

How much will shipping/delivery cost?

Testimonials

“Working with Alanna has been a real treat! She understood what we wanted, kept us involved in the creative process, and created the product of our expectations. I wholeheartedly recommend!”

- Louis Dorval

"Alanna did a gorgeous painting for us of our son paddling in the front of a canoe.  She was so accommodating to work with.  She basically said that she could paint whatever we wanted.  We had something very specific in mind.  We provided her with 4 different photos with instructions to use different parts of each photo to come up with the perfect picture.  Alanna did an amazing job!  It is a treasured focal point in our home.”

  -Barbara and Jim Howard

“Je connaissais le travail d’Alanna depuis quelques années et j’avais toujours eu envie d’avoir un tableau d’elle chez moi. J’ai profité d’une photo, souvenir de mon mariage, pour lui proposer de me le peindre. Nous avons convenu ensemble du format de la toile (en fonction de la photo et du prix). J’ai aujourd’hui ce merveilleux souvenir immortalisé dans mon salon de manière bien plus symbolique qu’une photo! Merci encore à Alanna qui a pu m’envoyer en France ce tableau en faisant en sorte qu’il soit extrêmement bien protégé! “
