Commissions
Hand-painted, wearable works of art created just for you.
Commission Possibilities
Historical Masterpieces
Wear your favorite work of art — hand-painted in detail on a jean pocket, the back of a denim jacket, or a pair of shoes.
The painting must be in the public domain. Not sure? I can help you check! If the artwork is by a working artist, written permission from them is required.
Original Designs
Allow me to bring your vision to life! I can paint any design or photo you provide, as long as you hold the rights to it. A photo or design found on Pinterest, Google, or Instagram is not allowed unless you own it or have written permission to use it.
Photos must be high-resolution, clear, and well-lit. To maintain the quality and integrity of my work, I may decline a design or image that isn't a fit for my painting style.
Please note: I do not currently accept commissions involving group or family portraits. Portraits of a single person or pet may be possible on a case-by-case basis.
If you’re unsure of whether a photo is a good fit, please reach out and I’d be happy to review it!
Gifting & Styling
Bespoke, hand-painted denim pieces are the perfect statement piece for red carpet looks, editorial shoots, or brand campaigns.
You can provide the design/photo reference or request mock-up options designed for you.
