Commissioning ABSTRACT ART. An artists insight.

An unique way to add personality to your home - commissioning original art.



​Choosing original artwork for your home is a wonderful experience and not as elite or unattainable as you may think.

With
today's access to the Internet many artists are avoiding the high commissioned worlds of galleries and self promoting and selling. Meaning you can much more easily make direct contact with an artist you admire and deal directly with them.
​

So I've laid out a few steps that I'd recommend you consider when commissioning a piece of abstract art and things that I do to aide this process.

1. RESEARCH


Now I would advocate paying attention to your local art scene. From open studios, shows, art fairs, independent shops to a good ole Google or Instagram hashtag search (I like to use #surreyartist #hampshireartist in my posts) there's lots of places to find what's going on in your local art scene.
​

Going local firstly supports those in your area which is undeniably valuable but it also enables a closer bond to build between artist and client because you can actually meet. I for one think its advantagous to meet in person and see the home of the client. It helps give in insight into taste and how your work will fit into a space.
