Commission a Bespoke Abstract Landscape Painting
Commission a Bespoke Painting
Capturing the essence of place, memory, and emotion through atmospheric abstraction
Why Commission Original Art?
A commissioned painting is a deeply personal piece that captures the feeling of a place or moment rather than a literal representation. Working in an abstract, atmospheric style, Nicola translates your memories, emotions, and connection to landscape into expressive colour, texture, and light.
Whether it's the mood of a misty morning walk, the colours of a sunset that moved you, or the sense of calm you feel in wild places — she'll create an evocative abstract landscape that brings that emotional resonance into your home.
How It Works
1. Initial Consultation — Free
Share the inspiration behind your commission — a place, memory, emotion, or colour palette. Reference photos are helpful for atmosphere, but Nicola interprets rather than replicates. You'll discuss size, colour preferences, and budget.
2. Proposal & Quote
A detailed proposal including size recommendations, estimated timeline (typically 4–6 weeks), and pricing. A 50% deposit secures your commission slot.
3. Creation Process
Progress photos are shared at key stages. Working intuitively and abstractly, your input helps ensure the painting captures the mood and feeling you're seeking.
4. Delivery
Once complete and approved, your painting is carefully packaged and shipped with full insurance. Free UK delivery included.

Typically 4–6 weeks from deposit to delivery, depending on size and complexity. Rush commissions may be possible — please enquire.
