Notes from the studio
On how a work is made, what it costs and how to keep it. Written for people buying a painting for the first time.
How a commissioned painting comes to be, from first talk to nail
I do not paint “whatever you want”. I paint what I would have painted anyway, for your wall. Here is what the six to eight weeks look like.
What a painting costs and why the price is on the wall
My prices are public and calculated the same way for everyone: by surface, with a coefficient that grows slowly, with the years.
How to care for an oil painting so it lasts a hundred years
Oil is a durable technique if you respect three things: light, humidity and hands. The care sheet I give with every work.
