COMMISSIONS
Something personal, made by hand.
Bespoke illustrations inspired by the people, places and moments that mean something to you.
A LITTLE MORE PERSONAL.
Some things deserve ore than a photograph.
A favourite place, someone you love, a moment you want to remember.
I turn photographs, ideas and memories into one-of-a-kind pieces of art, created by hand and made entirely around you.
01/ THE WATERCOLOUR PORTRAIT
Your moment, painted.
Send me a favourite photograph and I’ll turn it into an original hand-sketched watercolour portrait.
Couples. Friends. Bridal parties. Families. A birthday look you loved. A moment from the day you’d like to keep.
Each piece is painted individually by hand and created completely around your photograph.
Available to order securely through my Etsy shop.

06 / WHY IT WORKS
Personal, by design.
Every commission starts with something that means something to you - a person, a place, a photograph or a memory.
From there, I interpret it by hand, paying attention to the little details that make it feel recognisably yours.
Something made for you, and only you.
07 / KIND WORDS
“Cece’s creation of the wonderful art pieces for my project blew me away. She has been everything and more.”

08 / A FEW THINGS YOU MIGHT BE WONDERING
-
Usually a clear photograph or selection of photographs, along with any details you’d particularly like included.
-
For some commissions, yes. Send over what you have and I’ll let you know what will work best.
-
Timings depend on the piece and time of year. Current turnaround times can be found when ordering, or I’ll confirm these with you for bespoke work.
-
Absolutely. Etsy is there for watercolour portraits. For anything more bespoke, simply enquire through Blank Canvas.
HAVE SOMETHING IN MIND?
Let’s turn it into something worth keeping.
