Custom artwork on commision
Your horse means the world to you
Your friends don’t understand why you can’t go away for the weekend because you can’t be away from the horses for too long. Your family thinks you’re crazy since you’ve had a few close calls falling off your horse. Your boyfriend has already suggested a few times to sell the horse because of financial reasons.
But you’ve never changed your mind
Even after an accident, the first thing you ask is, “Is the horse okay?” despite being unable to move. And even in a cast with a broken ankle, you count down the days until you can ride again.
That is called passion.
Your personal story immortalized
Perhaps you’ve had to let him go and you miss your companion terribly.
You’re looking for a way to bring your horses closer to home, to create a cozy place where you both belong.
You’re on a journey of remembering, finding peace in keeping memories alive of your best friend
Whether you’ve had to say farewell to a special one or whether he is still by your side you aim to create something meaningful and enduring, honouring the one you love
The spirit of your equine companion on canvas
Imagine an artwork that captures the expression of your horse perfectly, as he looks right into your eyes.
Imagine the freedom of choosing the style of your preference and the colours of your interior, that match his coat and his personality.
Think about the idea of adding something personal.
It might be the ashes of your late horse, his hair, grass from his pasture, a piece of fabric from his blanket..
Imagine how it could lift up your home with energy,
Having him by your side always. You can see him, talk to him and even slightly touch him.
This way your artwork becomes a personal story of the bond between you and your horse. You get connected by a unique piece of art with unmeasurable emotional value.
In the spirit of "nothing is ever lost", they live on in the most unique way
THE PROCES
I love challenges, so when it comes to creating your own custom artwork, anything is possible.
You can provide me with a professional photo, multiple homemade photos, or even just an idea. As you know, I mainly paint horses, but I also frequently receive commissions for other animals, people, weddings, vacations, pregnancies… After all, every beautiful moment in your life deserves to be immortalized on canvas.
To give you a visual preview of the composition on canvas, I often create a digital design in advance based on your photos. This way I give you a glimpse of how your painting will look with your chosen photo(s), size, and proportions. We can work together to determine the ideal composition and design for the artwork.
I can also visit your location for a brainstorming session. I can bring paintings of different sizes and colours so you can see how they fit in your space. Together, we’ll measure the wall and find the perfect size for the painting. I can also make reference photos of your horse matching our ideas.
How long does it take?
Once I receive the deposit, you will be placed on the waiting list. Currently, there is a waiting list of approximately six months before I can start with your project.
It’s essential for me to have enough time and space to work on your painting. An idea needs to evolve, and every commissioned artwork deserves my full attention to become a unique piece.
PRICELIST
The price for a piece of art from my hand depends on your preferences.
The size of the artwork and the number of figures on the canvas play the most significant role. Additionally, the complexity, composition, design, and whether or not a background is included also determine the price.
Furthermore, I take into account your preferences and desires. The price is determined based on chosen media such as gold leaf, whether or not framing of the canvas is desired, and personal additions like ashes or other elements.
Naturally, I also consider your budget and available space at home. You can have a personalized custom artwork starting from 750 euros.
Below, I’ve listed 5 price categories so you can get an idea of where your size fits. All sizes, including round canvases, are possible. So, I suggest measuring your wall to see what fits best. Of course, I’m happy to help you think about what size would be best for you.
- 24 x 30 (A4) cm from € 750
- 60 x 80 cm from € 1900
- 80 x 120 cm from € 2900

I always request a 50% deposit for your artwork, and the remaining half can be paid before shipping or on the day of delivery or pick-up. All prices are exclusive of shipping and delivery. Optionally, a payment plan can be arranged. I have no issue dividing the price into several instalments if it helps with your decision. On top I sell gift cards you can collect to spare money for your favourite artwork.
You’ll closely follow the process!
Throughout the painting process, I’ll regularly reach out to keep you informed about the status of the painting. I’ll send photo updates so you can closely follow the progress.
You’re welcome to make suggestions or express preferences for any adjustments during the process. This way, I can tailor the painting to your desires.
This ensures you have a clear picture of the final result and prevents unexpected surprises. My aim is to strive for 100% customer satisfaction in this way.

“You captured the soul of the animal perfectly, it’s amazing!”
“We wanted to have a beautiful painting in our living room. We already had two smaller paintings of you, but we also wanted a bigger one on our wall we always look at when we sit on the sofa.
You made a magnificent painting of a beautiful mare and foal in warm colours. The details, f.e. the gold leafs, make it extra special, if you look at the painting from another angle you see different things, how nice is that!
I would really recommend you to people that want to upgrade their house with beautiful art!”
Passion for horses & art
As an artist with a background as an equine veterinarian, I help nature and horse lovers connect more deeply with their horses and nature through art that resonates.
I specialize in expressing the freedom and instinct of horses.
I create timeless pieces that reflect the bond between you and your horse.
I’m very curious to hear your ideas and preferences, so feel free to send me your wishes and photos. I’m happy to brainstorm with you about the possibilities for your custom-made artwork.
