Celebrating An Engagement With A Seascape Painting Commission
A painting commission is a unique way to commemorate a special occasion, such as an engagement. A bespoke painting brings your favourite places and cherished memories to life, creating a stunning back drop for your home.
For one couple, a painting commission beautifully captured the light and beauty of their engagement evening in Ermones, Corfu.
👇 If you're ready to bring your own special memory to life in a beautiful painting, I’d love to help you make it happen. Start your own commission today!
“Every time I look at the piece it takes me back to that special moment. Rachel has captured the light and emotion so well. My partner was really impressed.”
Bringing The Vision To Life - A Seascape Painting Commission As AN Engagement Gift Idea
First off, Natasha got in touch with me to share her mood board of photos taken from the evening her partner proposed on a beach lit by a beautiful sunset.
She didn’t have a single photo that captured the entire scene with the right lighting, as it darkened when the tide came in. Thankfully, we're not limited by photos! I can create the desired colours, light, and atmosphere using a range of images.
The initial stage of communicating and sharing ideas is an enjoyable stage in the process for both parties! It’s an opportunity for me to truly understand your vision, both visually and emotionally, so I can craft a piece that captures the essence of your desired scene.
💬 “Rachel was amazing throughout the process from reviewing the idea based on a collation of pictures from our engagement, quotation, initial sketch and review.” — Natasha
Shaping the Style of The Painting Commission
Not all commissions require thumbnail sketches, but they can be very helpful for visualizing how composition, colors, and focal points will work together when multiple images are being used to inspire the painting.
Thumbnails are very quick sketches I use to help visually explain ideas in our consultation to make sure we are on the same page.
I usually ask for 3-5 paintings of mine that you’d like your painting to be inspired by. It helps with our conversation and gives me an idea of how you’d like your painting painted.
Natasha shared a few she loved specifically: “the vibrancy of these paintings capture a pure joy and contentment of the moment”
