COMMISSIONS
Jess is currently accepting commissions.
CONTRACTS
A contract is required to formalize the fine art commission and to ensure both parties are respected.
The contract includes all details discussed, such as subject matter, size and medium of the artwork, price, due dates for payments etc.
TIMEFRAME
Commissioned artworks usually take between 2 – 6 months to complete depending on the size and complexity of the piece as well as Jess’ work schedule at the time.
PRICING
The price of a fine art commission is determined and agreed upon during the initial consultation with the client, based on the artwork’s size and complexity. There are no additional fees for commissioned pieces. A non-refundable deposit of 50% of the agreed price is required upon signing the commission contract.
Work begins once this payment is received unless there is a waiting list, in which case a start date will be provided. The remaining 50% is due upon completion, prior to the artwork being handed over.

Please note that the prices listed include framing costs but are to be used as a guide only. The final price of your artwork will be based upon the size, hours involved, and complexity of the mandala and will be consistent with other comparable works by Jess at the time of sale.

DELIVERY
For the sake of transparency, taxes, the cost of delivery, and installation are separate from the fine art commission price.
If the client is based in the Tampa Bay area Jess may be able to hand deliver the artwork to you. Clients are also welcome to pick up their finished artworks from Jess’ studio in St. Petersburg, Florida by appointment.
If hand delivery or pickup is not an option, arrangements will be made for the artwork to be professionally packed and shipped at the client’s expense. Insurance to cover loss or damage in transit is also available.
Items delivered outside of the US could be subject to import duties and taxes. These are charged at destination and are the responsibility of the individual receiving the goods. Please contact your local customs office for further details before ordering if you are concerned.
THE COMMISSION PROCESS
In the initial discussion, usually via email or phone/Zoom, the particulars of the artwork to be commissioned will be determined (such as mandala pattern or custom pattern, size, flowers, crystals, price, framing choices, required completion date etc.).
Once all of the particulars are determined a commission contract is created and exchanged, accompanied by an invoice for the down payment. The commission will be started only after both the down-payment has been paid and the contract has been signed and returned.
Upon completion of the final artwork, digital images will be sent to the client for approval. Once approved, the artwork will be framed and the invoice for the final payment will be issued.
Following payment of the final invoice, the artwork will be delivered/shipped to the collector.
