Interested in a commission?

Are you interested in commissioning a painting from me? If so, make sure you're on my commissions mailing / waiting list by messaging me via this contact form.

The downside is that it takes at least 24 hours to dry, so it's time-consuming but absolutely worth it. Gold leaf and glitter makes for an especially striking effect under resin! The first lot of ornaments sold out within 48 hours, but I've been making more in the meantime. I'll give...
