Commissions - Commissioning a landscape painting. |
 |
 |
|
This website has proved to be an ideal way to discuss all kinds of painting topics with site visitors and buyers. I enjoy this dialogue very much. It also greatly facilitates the commissioning of work as I can discuss all aspects of a painting commission in its entirety, directly with the client.

 |
|
If you are interested in commissioning a work and if you have a particular vision of a kind of painting you would like, please get in touch with me at - art@kenbushe.co.uk to discuss it.

The brief was to paint a Glasgow street scene which in some way illustrated the vibrancy and beauty which can be seen and felt in Glasgow.
As the client and his wife were both students at Glasgow university we agreed that it should feature within the work in some way.

This painting was one of a pair which were both commissioned for the new offices of my client, a soliciter who specialises in commercial mediation.
My brief was to work towards images which would sit easily with the strong emotions often existing within mediated disputes, while also giving a suggestion of hope and optimism. As such, they have a specific job to do.

|
|
My client was able to guide me towards the finished results by referring to other paintings on the website and after detailed discussion a sound understanding was reached.
