Let me create some magic for you!
Want a portrait of your pet or your favorite animal painted in a unique, modern style? In the size and the colors of your choice? You are in the right place!
Over the last year I have been frequently asked about custom paintings. I am now happy to announce, I am officially OPEN for commissions!
What can I paint for you?
My most requested commissions are pet portraits. I had the pleasure of painting numerous pets in the last year and I enjoyed working on each and everyone of them. I grew up with pets (dogs, cats, horses, rabbits, hamsters... you name it) and am currently a dog Mum myself, so I totally understand the urge to get something unique and beautiful to put in your house that represents the unconditional love they give us.
So if you are interested in getting your own pet painted by me, please fill out the form below or email me.

If pets aren't your thing but a certain wild animal speaks to you, then that is not a problem either. I will gladly paint your soul animal for you! Be that a tiger, an eagle or even a sloth ;)

Before becoming a Fine Artist I was known for my unique and professionally painted Fan Arts. In fact, this is how my whole journey as an artist started. I owe the Anime and Gaming Community a lot. So if there is a specific Anime or Game character you love, then I'll gladly create you a unique painting to showcase your love! Since I am a big Fan of all things Gaming and Anime related, my inner geek is always happy to receive a Fan Art commission!
Here is a selection of my Fan Art Paintings:

How does it work?
For pet portraits you will have to send me a good quality picture of your pet. See my photo reference guide here.
If you want something else painted, you can just describe to me what you have in mind as detailed as you can: Tell me about the subject you want to have painted, what does it mean to you? What color scheme do you have in mind, what emotions do you want the painting to convey?
As soon as I have all the information I need, I will create a digital sketch/mockup for us to discuss and finetune. This way we will both have a clear idea of what the painting is going to look like (please keep in mind that a handmade painting will never look exactly like the digital reference).
After we agreed on a design, I will start painting.
If you are not 100% sure yet what or how exactly you want me to paint, then feel free to message me and we can brainstorm together.
How much does it cost?
My pricing policy is very transparent since I charge by size and material. A Mixed Media Painting finished off with oils or an Oil Painting runs at 25Cents (€) per Squarecentimeter. An Acrylic Painting (mostly applies to Fan Arts) runs at 20Cents.
My smallest canvas sizes are 30x30cm (for a square canvas) or 30x40cm (for a rectangular canvas).
I charge half of the total costs (excluding shipping) upfront as a nonrefundable deposit. This secures your spot on my commission list (first come, first served).
Shipping and Insurance costs are the responsibility of the client and will be added to the price of the painting. An estimate can be given prior to payment.
If you are interested in setting up a payment plan, please let me know.
How long will it take?
Once you contacted me I can tell you an estimate time frame, depending on my schedule and the nature of your painting.
If you are looking for a present and need the painting done by a set date, please contact me two months in advance (if you live outside of the EU, please consider shipping can sometimes take 3 to 4 weeks as well). Also oil paintings need to fully cure before I can prepare them for shipping, which can take up to two weeks.
What is a good reference photo?
The better the quality of your reference photo, the easier it will be for me to replicate important details and the happier you will be with the finished piece. Here are some instructions that will help you choose the perfect reference picture:
1.) Choose a photo that offers a clear, clean and close-up representation of your subject
2.) Photos taken at eyelevel work best, avoid images looking down or up at your subjects face
3.) If you can, take the photos outdoors. If that is not an option, then make sure your subject is evenly lit. I must be able to see the details even in the dark areas.
4.) Make sure your photo has a decent resolution. 300DPI works best. Photos below 75DPI (often that is the resolution of photos shared through Social Media or Messangers) should not be considered. While they may look good on your phones screen, I need to be able to zoom in without loosing too much of the photo quality. I need to see those details.
If you are not sure if the picture you have in mind works or if you need help with any technical difficulties, please feel free to reach out to me and I will do my best to assist.
