A number of my tulip, bird and general still life paintings are commissioned by private clients.  I love to work with clients who wish to commission a painting, as it often contains something personal. I also work with art consultants and interior designers.

If you have a space within your kitchen, dining room, bedroom or other space where you would like to have a unique Dutch still life painting, or if you wish to make a gift to a loved one, please contact me to discuss how I can help.

Payment plans available.

“I remember seeing Tanja’s work for the first time, it was the Three figs. A beautiful fruit as it is, I remember how she captured the smooth dusty skin contrasting the rich succulent interior, you could almost taste it.  Recently seeing her Passiflora inspired me to commission a painting as a surprise gift for my wife. We discussed the size and composition. I received a sketch within days and following my input she completely encapsulated the idea and sentiment of portraying our family in our own Passiflora painting. She kept me updated with the painting’s progress and then hand-delivered it.  My wife had no idea, so it came as a huge and very warm emotional surprise.” Alex, London

The process: commission a painting

– easy & no surprises!

Subject matter, size, surface (support) and ‘feel’ of the painting are discussed after which I prepare sketches for your review and feedback. Once the design and sketch have been approved I start painting.

I send regular updates by email, so there will be no surprises! I explain my process and technique to provide insight in the centuries’-old classical painting method and paints I use. When completed, the painting is lovingly wrapped and sent by courier or hand-delivered.

Payments: a 30% non-refundable deposit is paid when the sketches are approved and the painting is started. The balance is then due before the painting is shipped. Payment plans are available – I want you to be able to enjoy the painting as soon as possible.
