How to Commission a Painting

  1. Share Your Vision: Send me a reference photo (or several!) of what you'd like painted. If you don't have specific imagery but have an idea, that's great too—let's brainstorm!

2. Creative Direction: Let me know if there's a vibe you're after. Is there a past piece of mine you adore? A color palette you dream of? Your input helps me capture your vision perfectly.

3.) Pick Your Size: Tell me the dimensions you'd like for your painting. Pricing depends on size and can be found on the chart below!

4.) Set the Timeline: Need it by a special date? Typically, I request 8–10 weeks from signing the contract, but I'll adjust if I can!

5.) Secure Your Spot: A 50% deposit secures your commission and covers materials and initial work.

6.) Collaborate on Concepts: If needed I'll create a few composition ideas to explore different artistic directions. Once you approve, the real magic begins!

7.) Review the Completed Piece: I’ll share photos of the finished painting, and you’ll have up to two revisions (within reason) to make sure it’s just right.

8.) Love It or Leave It: If you don’t absolutely love the final piece, there’s no obligation to pay the remaining balance or keep the painting.

Let’s create something amazing together!

Reviews

"This past year, I tried to commission a piece of art for a wall in my family room. To be honest, this other artist was difficult to work with and I ended up with a piece of art that I could not use. I never thought I would commission a piece again until I found Maggie Sackmann. Each piece she would create, I wanted to display in my house. I finally decided to take another chance and reached out to Maggie ! She is a professional, easy to-work with  a good listener and communicator. Maggie Sackmann created a piece that completes the room and brings me joy!!" - Moira C.

“I was so lucky that Maggie popped up on my instagram!” I went to her website and LOVED everything she had posted, so knew she would do an amazing job with our modern coast landscape commissions!  Her process is wonderful and really allows for review and input to achieve the perfect outcome.  We consider our two commissions unique treasures that we enjoy daily and which bring us great joy!! We are so appreciative of her talents!  We would highly recommend working with her!" - Carl and Sue Ellen Strong, Lewes, DE
