At Bathsheba Arts, we take pride in creating bespoke, personalized pieces that reflect your unique story and vision. Our commission process is designed to ensure that you are involved every step of the way, resulting in a one-of-a-kind artwork tailored to your desires.
Step 1: Initial Consultation
We begin with a conversation to discuss your ideas, preferences, and inspiration. Whether you have a specific concept in mind or are seeking guidance, this is where we explore themes, colours, materials, and the overall feel of the piece. We aim to capture your vision while also infusing elements of the rich African and Caribbean heritage that inform our work.
Step 2: Concept Development
After our consultation, I’ll create preliminary sketches or mood boards to visually represent your concept. This stage allows you to provide feedback on design direction, colour choices, and details, ensuring we are aligned before the creation begins.
Step 3: Creation
Once the concept is finalized, the creation process begins. Throughout, I will share updates, offering you a glimpse into the progression of your piece. This may include insights into the textile work, tufting, or mixed media elements being incorporated. Depending on the complexity, this stage may take several weeks.
Step 4: Final Approval and Delivery
Upon completion, we will review the piece together to ensure it meets your expectations. After any final adjustments, your commissioned artwork will be professionally packaged and delivered to your location.
Each commission is a collaborative journey, resulting in a deeply personal artwork that blends your vision with Bathsheba Arts’ signature style of bold storytelling and cultural expression.
