Purchasing this listing will reserve your commission.

Please note: The artist retains the right to cancel any commission reservation that is not in line with her artistic vision and style. In such a case, the reservation fee would be refunded.

THE PROCESS:

1. Purchase this commission reservation listing, for $400. This holds your spot on Jess's calendar.

2. Email the following to jess@jessfranksart.com.

Name

Size painting and orientation (horizontal, vertical, square).

Provide 1-3 reference photos of what you would like to have painted, if you have them.

Provide links to your favorite 2-5 Jess Franks paintings that you would like your piece to be inspired by.

Provide other thoughts on what you are hoping from your commission. Please elaborate as much as necessary, as this information is critical to a successful commission.

Colors you love:

Colors you want to avoid (this can be left blank though!):

Specify whether or not this piece can be shown on Instagram during its process.

3. Sign commission contract that Jess sends by email.

4. Pay price of commission and shipping, listed below.

• Commission price is in addition to the reservation price.

• Shipping is approx. $120 in the U.S. (though possibly higher for larger paintings. Canada is also more, and customs fees are the responsibility of the collector. If shipping costs are of concern to you, please inquire ahead of time for an estimate.)

• Jess will send the invoice via Paypal, which allows you to securely pay by Paypal or credit card.

• Once the commission agreement is signed and paid for, there are no refunds.

5. Painting commences. Painting is usually completed within 1-2 weeks of beginning.

6. Jess emails update photos approximately halfway through. Upon completion of the painting, Jess will send a final photo, and collector gives approval or minor edits. Any extensive edits (as judged extensive by the artist) beyond that are subject to a 15% additional fee.

7. Painting ships to collector! Woohoo!
