Artistic Direction & Boundaries

Nuwi Art carefully selects private commissions that complement the artist’s signature style, artistic vision, and body of work. Each inquiry is individually reviewed before a commission is accepted.

Currently Accepting:

• Horses
• Select wildlife
• Emotionally meaningful portrait work, reviewed case-by-case
• Pieces that reflect realism, legacy, or timeless storytelling
• Selected replicas of other artists’ work

Not Accepting:

• Group portraits with multiple complex subjects, unless pre-approved
• Highly stylized or cartoon interpretations
• Heavy background scenes, unless artist-approved
• Alterations of copyrighted images
• Graphic, violent, or controversial subject matter

All compositions, cropping, and artistic interpretation remain at the discretion of the artist.

Investment & Reservation

By submitting this form, you acknowledge:

Minimum commission investment begins at $250 USD (16 x 20 inches). Final investment is determined by size, subject complexity, and composition.

A non-refundable 50% retainer is required to reserve your place. The remaining 50% balance is due prior to shipment.

Commissions are not considered booked until the retainer is received.

Due to the limited number of annual commissions, retainers are non-transferable.

Estimated completion timelines will be discussed upon acceptance.

Upon acceptance of the commission, a formal Commission Agreement outlining scope, timeline, usage rights, and payment terms will be provided for review and signature prior to commencement.

Nuwi Art reserves the right to decline any commission that does not align with her artistic direction or quality standards.
