We first viewed Deb’s artwork in the offices of Whispering Pines Landscaping and immediately knew we wanted to commission a painting from her. We spoke and I shared my thoughts with her regarding what I envisioned, subject, colours and size. She kept us informed as to her progress and we were more than thrilled with the final result. So much so that we commissioned two more paintings from her. Once again we were delighted. There is no substitute for original art……support local artists.
Commisioning a Painting
I have had the privilege of creating commissioned paintings for a number of happy clients. I personally find this a very enjoyable process and try to make it as stress and risk free for the client as well.
When you order a commissioned piece, you can be assured that if you are not satisfied with the end product there is no obligation to buy it. Acrylic paint is a very forgiving medium in that it dries quickly allowing the artist to paint right over it. The benefit of this to both the artist and the client is that most of the time changes can easily be incorporated and the painting can be adjusted until the client is happy.
Prices are by size and are agreed to at the beginning of the process. Payment plans can be arranged if desired.

"I have always followed Deb as an artist and wanted to purchase something when the time was right. When our family cottage was renovated I asked her to create something with a northern feel for a feature wall. From start to finish Deb was easy, flexible and involved me in the process. She asked for my colour preferences and even shared the painting mid way before it was finished to ask for some input. We love our painting by Deb Menken so much and look forward to purchasing from her again.
She also finished the painting right on time and personally delivered it to our home. Deb is a lovely person so its always a pleasure to visit with her face to face. "
