Commissions

At Philip Leister Studio, each commissioned artwork is conceived as a dialogue between the client, the space, and Philip’s distinct artistic language.
Whether collaborating with interior designers, collectors, or curators, Philip approaches every commission with a deep sensitivity to environment, scale, and emotional impact. His process ensures that the final piece not only complements its setting but enhances the atmosphere through intentional composition, texture, and color.

Commission Workflow

1. Vision Meeting
We begin with a conversation centered on your goals for the piece — preferred dimensions, mood, palette, thematic direction, and spatial context. This discussion can take place over Zoom, phone, or in person when possible.

2. Proposal & Initial Payment
After aligning on the creative direction, you’ll receive a comprehensive proposal outlining the concept, project scope, timeline, and pricing. A 50% non-refundable deposit is required to reserve the commission and initiate the work.

3. Creative Development
Throughout the creation process, Philip will share curated progress updates to ensure the work continues to reflect your vision. These may include photographs, detail shots, and artistic notes.

4. Final Review
Once the artwork is completed, you will receive final images for review and approval. The remaining 50% balance is due upon approval.

5. Delivery & Installation
Following final payment, we will arrange professional packing and delivery to your chosen location. Shipping fees are the responsibility of the client. For local clients, installation support can be arranged upon request.
