My custom commissions are spiritual totems—visual impressions of an individual’s energy field or higher self. These totems reflect the transcendent, luminous qualities that live within each of us. Creating them involves tuning into the deep, universal wisdom that connects all beings. Each totem is unique and can be delivered in various forms, including digital files, original paintings, or large-scale wheatpasted murals.

Commissioned artwork provides an opportunity to create a work of art that is very personal and significant to the client. It is a collaboration of my energy and the client’s energy that results into a visual manifestation.

Many years ago, on a vision quest by the Temple of the Moon in the mountains of Cusco, Peru, I was given the gift of seeing. The quest showed me the different ways I was able to connect to other people’s power animals and experience their higher self. This was the energy that wanted to come back from the journey with me and be a strong presence in my creative endeavors.  This sacred gift has been an evolving and growing tool in my life.

Totems are reflections of the deep connection that we feel with a certain animal. A representation of our energy in the universe. I believe that these energies, in the form of animals, guide us through our journey in life. As we live our lives, new energies and animals join us in navigating our path and become our allies. Ultimately, all the totems are a reflection of our own strength and power. The aim of my work is to highlight this power.

My process is very intuitive, pure and deeply involved.

I will come across spirit animals that want to be part of the piece or to simply share a message to support the final artwork. When I am in my process I receive messages in my dreamscapes, and those messages will find their way into the work in a symbolic way.

My intention with the final artwork is to capture the essence of the multidimensional self of the subject in this evolved state, rather than to create a portrait of their likeness. Experiencing the work is closer to sitting with and feeling the energy of the person rather than looking at them.

Commission Inquiries:

Please use the contact page to contact me through email.
Most commissions start with a simple email inquiry. When you reach out, please share a little about what you’re looking for and what inspires you to begin this journey.

If we find ourselves on the same page after the initial inquiry, then we will meet. In person if possible, or on a Zoom call, to discuss the project in more depth. Once we arrive at a mutual understanding and cover the fundamentals of the commission as well as budget, I send a commission proposal with our agreement and the scope of the project. Commissions require a 50% non-refundable deposit in order for me to begin my process.  Upon your receipt of the signed agreement and deposit, I add the project to my calendar and lock in dates.

Upon receipt of the signed agreement and deposit, I will begin gathering images and start the sacred journey of envisioning the totem.The first meeting would be once I have a strong base design completed of the piece that I can share with you. 

Feedback is encouraged throughout the process, but most importantly at the first meeting, when sharing the base design, to ensure that we are on the same page. The agreed-upon price for custom commissioned artwork includes up to 3 design revision requests.

In the rare case that a final design has not been agreed upon after 3 revisions, a new contract with new terms will have to be initiated.

The creation of a completed totem can take anywhere from 8-10 weeks.

Please note that Shipping & Handling costs will be added to the remaining balance upon completion and before shipping.

There are a few different ways to receive the final artwork:  

1. Custom printed on handmade paper.   The artwork can be presented either framed or unframed. A framed piece will be at an additional cost.  

2. A wheat paste wall mural. Additional installation fees will be applied   

I look forward to working with you on this intensive and at times enlightening process. Please do not hesitate to contact me about working together to identify and render your animal totem. Serious inquiries only.
