If you're looking for a particular size, colour palette, or subject, I am happy to work with you to create a unique custom artwork. I will fill the piece to the brim with motifs that reflect you or your subject choice.

"Words cannot express what a joy it was working with Lorette! She made the entire process from start to finish a breeze! I moved to a new apartment and was looking to commission a piece of original art for my wall. I wasn’t sure what I wanted and liked the mixed media  style of Lorette’s work. I first saw her work on Etsy and reached out to inquire. She sent me this fun quiz with various questions to answer so that she could get a better feel for my personality , lifestyle , etc. I really enjoyed answering it! We discussed a few aesthetics related to my colour preferences, size and pricing. I selected a few styles of artwork that spoke to me. Then,  I just left it up to her!  I did send her a few files of images that I really liked that she might consider including. (She did!) This was the first time I’d really put all my trust in someone when paying for something. Usually I’m the type of person who likes to know everything but it felt freeing to just leave the decisions up to the artist! ... Lorette was also very helpful in helping me figure out the most economical way to ship the art piece.  She worked very quickly and from start to finish I think it was only a few months. When the piece arrived I couldn’t have been more pleased! It was everything I’d hoped for and more!!! The colors were absolutely fantastic along with the style and layering of typefaces, newspaper and magazine clippings, brushstrokes of paint, etc. I was completely smitten. It looks beautiful on my wall and so far I have received many compliments on it. It brings me joy every time I look at it. I would definitely work with Lorette again in the future to create another piece! Thank you so much!!!" Meri, Seattle
