Custom Pin-Up 
Illustrations

Pin-up commissions, to me, are very personal. In my humble opinion, it’s something that no one else will have, which makes it all the more special.

 

Pin-up artwork can be hung on the wall with pride or displayed in a more private setting. Custom Pin-up Illustrations are something that can show off one’s personality in a way that no other gift can. And that’s what I offer. A chance to own custom artwork that is personal, unique, and will be cherished for years to come.

Pinup Commissions

Pinups are fun, they’re spunky, and they have a playfulness to them like no other kind of art. They can reflect pop culture, a romantic side, a sexy and playful side… really they can be anything and everything. I enjoy creating Pinup art reminiscent to the styles from the 1940s and 50s. They can show off a person’s personality as well as play up aspects of their features. That can be done with the outfit, props, or the background scenery. The only rule I have for any Pinup commission is that they must be depicted in a tasteful manner. All the ‘bits’ are covered, however, the personality still shines through in the piece

Phase 1

  • When I receive a custom commission quote form, I will reply to the client to discuss their ideas to ensure that I understand what they would like created and write up a project proposal.

 

  • If the proposal is approved, an invoice will be sent for a 50% installment payment to hold your space on my list.
    Please also be sure to read the Terms and Conditions in the invoice.

​

  • At the time of approval, a private link will also be sent to the client for uploading their reference images.

 

 

*Note: No work will begin until the first installment payment is received.

Phase 2

  • I then combine all descriptions, references, and inspiration images provided by the client and begin sketching out the pin-up.

 

  • Once the sketch is completed it is uploaded to the client's folder for their approval. This is the best time to make any revisions to the project, if any.

​

  • Once the sketch is approved the painting begins. This is where the project really starts to come to life and it is also the longest phase of the project. Proofs are sent during this portion as well to show progress.

​

*Note: Up to three (3) revisions are included. After that, each revision is $25.

Phase 3

  • After all of the details are completed I upload a final proof to the client for their final approval.

​

  • When the final project is approved by the client I format their commission into four (4) different file formats. PSD (photoshop document), JPG, PNG, and TIF.

​

  • With the final installment payment paid, I then upload the files where the client may then download them and have them printed.

​

  • We're now done, and I thank you for your support of a small business.

​

*Note: Files are created at 16" by 16" at 300dpi. Custom sizes and file types are available upon request.
