Commission Types:
Acrylic Paintings
I've been honoured to create original acrylic paintings for over 40 commission clients since 2021.
Commissions are accepted based on a first come, first serve basis. I typically only accept 1-3 new clients when opening my availability to email subscribers.
I will read and respond to your commission request form with questions regarding your timeline, budget, inspiration and sentimentality. What feeds my fire most in doing commissions for clients is coming to know what certain people, memories, places and colours mean to them.
A non-refundable deposit of is required to secure my availability for your commission.
Acrylic paintings on canvas require a $750.00-$1000.00 CAD (plus tax) deposit, depending on the size of your final piece.
Shipping costs are covered by the client and to be determined at time of shipment.
(I do my upmost to secure the most cost-efficient method of shipping for my clients, whilst remaining within the scope of safe art-shipping practices.)

While I do not offer draft paintings during my oil painting commission process, I do take my client's preferences on form and colour with me into the studio. Rest assured, you will end up with a piece that both you and I are thrilled with!

"There are no words to describe the beauty of this art created for me and my family. I am truly honoured that I got to work with such an amazing person and artist that Willo Downie is. Her process was chill, easy and with connection. They say art comes from within and after being able to connect with Willo there is no doubt she has a gift unmatched. I will cherish this original piece forever and I look forward to watching her art light our universe over and over."
