Commissioning an Original Work of Art

Bringing Your Personal Style and Story Into a One-of-a-Kind Painting

You have created a beautiful home or professional space, yet the walls remain unfinished. You may have considered buying a print, but something about it feels temporary or impersonal. After investing so much care into designing a space that reflects your personality and lifestyle, you want the artwork to hold the same sense of individuality and meaning. Commission The Artist.

Art is often the final layer that brings a room to life. Like the clothing we wear or the objects we surround ourselves with, the artwork we choose becomes an extension of who we are. It reflects our memories, interests, aesthetic tastes, and emotional connection to place. You may not be an artist yourself, but your creative perspective matters. Commissioning an original painting allows you to participate in the creative process and bring that perspective into your space in a meaningful way.

As Canadian artist Brandy Saturley, my work has evolved through years of painting, travel, and exploration across Canada. From early series focused on trees and landscape to more recent work inspired by Canadian symbolism, popular culture, and regional identity, my paintings explore the emotional and visual language of Canada. These bodies of work form the foundation of my artistic practice and continue to inspire collectors across the country and internationally.

Occasionally, a collector connects deeply with an existing painting and acquires it directly from a series. Other times, a client is drawn to my visual style and storytelling approach but is looking for something more personal, something created specifically for their home, office, or collection. This is where commissioned artwork becomes a unique and rewarding collaboration.

Commission The Artist – Custom Art for Your Home or Office

Commissioning a painting is an opportunity to create something truly one of a kind. Together, we can explore ideas, themes, locations, colours, atmosphere, or symbolism that resonate with you personally while remaining grounded in my artistic voice and style. The process is collaborative, thoughtful, and tailored to your space and vision.

Over the years I have created commissioned paintings inspired by travel memories, Canadian landscapes, meaningful objects, coastal experiences, family stories, and personal symbolism. Each commission becomes more than décor. It becomes a reflection of identity, memory, and connection.

For me as an artist, commissions offer the opportunity to connect with collectors on a deeper level and create work that carries both personal meaning and artistic integrity. For the collector, the result is an original painting that feels deeply connected to their life and environment, a work of art created specifically for them and no one else.

Every commissioned project is unique, and so is the way I communicate and collaborate with my clients. Some collectors prefer email correspondence, others enjoy conversations by phone, FaceTime, or in-person meetings. Often, the creative process unfolds through a combination of these exchanges. Thankfully, modern technology allows meaningful collaboration regardless of distance, proving that you do not need to be in the same room to create something personal and lasting together.

If you are interested in commissioning an original painting for your home, office, or collection, I invite you to get in touch and begin the conversation.
