Commissions.
Commissioning an original work offers the opportunity to collaborate with Ches on a piece created especially for you and the space it will inhabit.
Drawing on the intricate detail, layered surfaces and organic forms that characterise her practice, Ches approaches each commission as an individual work of art.
While a particular piece, palette, scale or aspect of her existing work may provide a starting point, every commission is uniquely interpreted and created in Ches’s own artistic language.
With decades of experience creating commissioned works for both private and commercial clients, Ches brings a wealth of knowledge and artistic expertise to each project.
Her commissions range from intimate pieces for private collections to larger works created for commercial spaces, each reflecting the individuality of its setting and purpose.
The commission process
The process begins with a conversation. Ches will take the time to understand what has drawn you to her work, the scale and location of the piece, and any particular colours, forms or existing works that resonate with you.
From there, the direction of the commission is agreed upon before Ches begins creating.
Ches’s process is intuitive, detailed and highly layered, with her larger works often developing over many months. This considered approach is integral to the depth and intricacy of the finished piece, and sufficient time is allowed for each commission to evolve naturally.
A collaborative approach
A commission is a collaboration built on trust. Your preferences provide a foundation for the work, while allowing Ches the creative freedom to respond intuitively as the piece develops.
Rather than reproducing an existing artwork, Ches creates an original piece that carries its own character while remaining recognisably part of her broader practice.
Commission details
Each commission is considered individually, with pricing determined by the scale and complexity of the work.
A 50% deposit is required to confirm your commission and secure its place in Ches’s schedule, with the remaining balance payable on completion, prior to shipping.
As Ches’s process is intricate and highly considered, completion times will vary depending on the scale of the work and her current studio schedule. An anticipated timeframe will be discussed with you before your commission is confirmed.
If you are considering commissioning a piece, Ches welcomes an initial conversation to explore what you have in mind.
