Commissions

If you have a special request, consider getting a commission. 

I work from photographs, and love to have stunning mountains in the background of any of my paintings.

What my clients have to say about how I work:

• ‘Martina is always a pleasure to work with! Her work and professionalism is exquisite. Martina created a live time capsule for the Ski Club 120^th anniversary event, which perfectly captured the evening and history of the Ski Club, a true masterpiece.’

        Charlotte Chrystall, Membership Engagement Officer- Ski Club of Great Britain

• "Martina did for me a great painting. If you want to do a gift, ask Martina and you will be sure that the result will be great!".

So, how does this work?

Super easy!

Just...

1) contact me via the form below and let me know what you are looking for, sending me some images of that special place you love.

2) We'll discuss sizes and prices, and if you are ok with it, I'll start to work!

3) I'll keep you posted all through the process to make sure that you like what I am doing! 

4) When finished I offer you to frame it and post it to your address. You just have to hang it in your wall. If you prefer the painting to be unframed, I will wrap it safely in glycine paper and ship with some instructions for your framer on how to frame this pastel painting. 

 

 

Some things for you to have in mind:

-I work with top materials- hand-made pastels of Sennelier, Blue Earth, Unison, Terry Ludwigs and Mamut Pastels. Pan Pastels and Pastel Pencils of Caran D'Ache and Faber Castels. Pastel Paper of La Carte Pastel, Pastelmat or Velour Boards. 

-All these pastels have magnificent colours thanks to their pigments, and the tooth in the pastel papers, allow the pastel to stick to the paper, much better than with standard paper.

-If you want me to frame the artwork, I like to do a bespoke frame. This is because my paintings papers and velour board are from abroad the UK, and you just don't get these sizes around. 

-Painting a commission takes about one month. 

Prices ranges from £1156 to £2350 depending on the subject matter and on how many people/animals you want included in your painting.
