Matthew was terrific to work with, especially as all correspondence was online. He delivered a fabulous art piece, sketching 15 hotel buildings in great detail. Matthew was working to a very tight timeline and delivered on time. I highly recommend Matthew for your artistic needs.

Steven

Belgrave, Australia

5.0

Pricing starts at $600

Pick me for:

Love painting with oils on canvas, drawing, sketching and illustration. In terms of size, the smallest acceptable canvas is 30x40cm, the largest is up to 100cmx90cm. I love painting cityscapes and landscapes, portraits and abstracts. I'm very versatile and experienced, having been doing this for quite a while. I love sending updates and progress pics but I'm happy for you to set the level of communication required. Above all else, love jobs where I can be imaginative and creative to bring ideas life. I will always provide a free quote before starting work, which details everything included, such as materials, labour, delivery cost &c. In terms of budget: terms are a 20% deposit for the initial design (i.e. the drawing, for example on canvas) and I require the 80% outstanding amount to start painting. I calculate the quote based on cost of materials, labour and BAA's cut + tax, so as a rule of thumb, the larger and more complex the project, the higher the cost and vice versa. When your project is complete you can decide whether to have it delivered or pick it up from my studio at Bighouse Arts. An oil painting can literally last for centuries and it represents the best of us, the finest emotions, experiences, memories and feelings in life; it is a beautiful object to treasure for many years to come. By commissioning local, independent artists like me through Book An Artist, you directly support the artist and a wider community of artists too! Contact me for a free quote.

Reviews:

Steve couldn’t have produced a better project for us. He took the time to capture some great angles of our streetscape, valued our input and gave us updates every step of the way. The painting was even better than we hoped for and completed in a very timely fashion. Would thoroughly recommend.

Marco

Brunswick East, Australia

5.0

Pricing starts at $550

(I paint my designs that have been created after working with the clients)

Canvas commissions,Interviews,Live painting events,Workshops,Tattoo Design

Pick me for:

Anything realistic and detailed.

Reviews:

We chose Marco for our mural because he specialises in painting people and fabric—the perfect fit for honouring Dame Joan Sutherland. From day one, he was friendly, patient, and focused on getting every detail right. Council approvals took a bit, but Marco was patient and the result was spot on—exactly what we envisioned. And the value? Outstanding. Marco’s fees are very competitive for his skill level—artists of similar calibre often charge much more. If you’re considering a mural, don’t hesitate to commission Marco. 🙌

Lachlan

Mentone, Australia

5.0

Pricing starts at $200

Pick me for:

I love jobs or tasks that involve putting genuine thought and passion into the idea. It makes me want to strive for something unique and long-lasting; whether that be through design, illustration/art, or a combination of both

Reviews:

We really enjoyed working with Lachlan; we were vaguely stressed about the process of an artistic commission (our first), but he made everything easy and comfortable. We were impressed by his interpretation of the brief and his explanations of what he would do to produce the final piece. Most importantly, he responded to our thoughts and feedback at every step along the way, as he showed us the works in progress, and we are so happy with the final piece. The best we can say is that we have a piece of art that is very different from our original brief (and "better") and that is down to the conversations we had -- and Lachlan's interpretations, and his explanations of the "how" and "why" of those interpretations. We decided early that we had commissioned Lachlan as an artist to produce a piece of art, rather than producing a stylized version of something else that we liked, and we are so happy that we allowed him to be an artist. We recommend Lachlan highly, if you think his portfolio jells with your ideas. Thank you, Lachlan.

Looking to capture a moment in time through art? Look no further than the world of sketching and drawing. From pencil sketches to pen sketches, and everything in between, there are countless ways to bring your vision to life. In this article, we'll explore some of the different types of sketches and drawings, and show you how you can turn your favorite photos into beautiful works of art.

Sketches and Drawings: Exploring Different Techniques

Sketching and drawing are two distinct art forms that both involve putting pen or pencil to paper. Sketching is often done quickly and loosely, with an emphasis on capturing the essence of the subject rather than creating a detailed, finished piece. In contrast, drawing typically involves more time and effort, and focuses on creating a polished, fully-realized image.

Sketch of Moonee Ponds, flower sketches, anime sketches, and more

One popular type of sketching is urban sketching, which involves capturing the unique character and energy of Moonee Ponds through sketches and drawings. Whether you're sketching a bustling street scene or a quiet park, urban sketching is a great way to connect with your surroundings and create something truly special.

If you're looking for something a bit more specific, consider flower sketching. This delicate and intricate art form involves capturing the beauty and complexity of flowers through detailed sketches and drawings. From roses to daisies to lilies, there are countless flowers to choose from, each with its own unique beauty. Another popular type of sketching is anime sketching, which involves capturing the distinct style and energy of Japanese animation. Whether you're a fan of classic anime or modern hits, anime sketching is a great way to bring your favorite characters to life and explore your own creative potential.

One popular technique is photo to sketch, which involves using software to convert your photos into hand-drawn sketches. This can be a great way to experiment with different styles and techniques, and create a truly unique piece of art. So whether you're interested in sketching flowers, creating a pen sketch of London, or exploring the world of anime sketching, there are countless ways to explore the world of sketching and drawing. With a bit of practice and patience, you can create beautiful, one-of-a-kind works of art that you'll treasure for years to come.
