Commissions
Personal Commissions
Commission a piece that is entirely your own. From custom artworks and restorations to calligraphic quotes, personalised cards, certificates and formal documents, Natalia creates work that is hand-crafted and tailored to your story. Each element is made with intention, giving form to something personal in a way that feels expressive and lasting.
What can be commissioned
Personal commissions span a wide range of formats, from small keepsakes to statement pieces. These may include:
Custom artworks
Original painted or mixed-media artworks created to suit a specific space, mood or story.
Calligraphy and quotes
Meaningful words, poems, vows or quotations rendered in hand-crafted calligraphy, as standalone artworks or framed pieces.
Cards and small keepsakes
Hand-crafted cards for birthdays, anniversaries, new arrivals or moments that call for something more personal than a printed card.
Certificates and formal documents
Calligraphy for certificates, awards, commemorations or official documents, designed to elevate important milestones.
Restorations
Careful restoration or re-working of existing art or calligraphy pieces, preserving their original character while bringing clarity and renewed beauty.
Bespoke requests
Unique ideas are always welcome: from heirloom pieces to thoughtful gifts created for no specific occasion at all.
A considered process
Each commission follows a thoughtful process designed to feel personal and collaborative, while working comfortably within your timeline.
Natalia begins with a conversation to understand your vision, story, and the purpose of your project. She discusses the occasion, the mood or emotion you’d like to convey, the scale and format of the work, and any specific materials or calligraphic styles you’re drawn to. You can share inspirations, reference images, or even just feelings you’d like the work to express, creating a clear foundation for a meaningful, hand-crafted piece.
Natalia develops initial concepts through sketches and moodboards. She explores layouts, letterforms, textures, and colour palettes, providing visual material so you can see your ideas take shape. You are invited to give feedback and help refine the direction, ensuring the piece reflects your vision before moving into full execution.
Natalia carries out the work according to the materials and ideas agreed upon with you. The piece is created with careful attention to detail, ensuring it faithfully reflects the vision developed during consultation and ideation, and results in a work that is considered and true to your brief.
As the piece nears completion, Natalia shares its development with you, inviting feedback. Subtle refinements and finishing touches are made to ensure the final work resonates with your vision.
"Natalia painted and restored 2 antique clock faces for us, and she did so very beautifully. She is extremely talented both as a calligrapher and an artist. She is also very personable and is an absolute perfectionist. We are delighted and fortunate to have discovered Natalia's rare talent, one which is sadly becoming a rarity. Best wishes for the future and thanks again."
