COMMISSIONS

Commission Offerings

Every artwork begins with a story. Whether you're celebrating a milestone, preserving a cherished memory, commissioning a portrait, or dreaming up a creative collaboration, each piece is thoughtfully created to become something meaningful you'll treasure for years to come. Working with Rachelle Cunningham on bespoke commission for you is meant to be a seamless and enjoyable moment, creating & receiving art is one of the most precious gifts there is.

Original Personalised Commission

The commission that has become the heart of my practice.For over six years, I have transformed treasured memories, meaningful moments, and personal stories into original paintings. Working from photographs, memories, and conversations, I reinterpret these moments through my signature artistic style to create a one-of-a-kind artwork that is deeply personal and entirely unique.Many clients commission these works as anniversary gifts, birthday presents, wedding gifts, family keepsakes, or simply as a way to honour a special chapter of their lives.Each painting is created exclusively for you and designed to become a lasting piece for your home.

Portrait Commission

A celebration of the individual.Inspired by my ongoing Muses series, these commissions place portraiture at the centre of the artwork. Rather than focusing on a specific memory or event, portrait commissions are dedicated to capturing the spirit, presence, and beauty of a person.Whether commissioned for yourself, a loved one, or as a meaningful gift, each portrait is created in my distinctive style and designed to become a timeless piece of art.

Stationery Suite (Invitations, weddings, events etc)

Artfully designed celebrations painted in Rachelle Cunningham’s known painting style, to add that touch of beautiful flare to your stationary. At the heart of each suite is an original artwork created exclusively for your wedding. This painting becomes the visual foundation for your stationery and, once the celebration is over, remains a treasured artwork for your home.From elegant invitations and save-the-dates to illustrated maps, menus, place cards, welcome signage, and day-of stationery, every suite is tailored to your vision.Whether you are seeking a fully bespoke experience with a large-scale original painting or a more intimate stationery collection centred around a smaller artwork, each project is thoughtfully designed to reflect your story and celebration.

Creative Projects & Collaborations

For brands & businesses. Some ideas extend beyond the canvas.I love collaborating on creative projects that allow art to live in new and unexpected spaces. From bespoke paintings for hospitality spaces and restaurants to window displays, creative direction, brand collaborations, interiors, installations, and special commissions, I enjoy bringing artistic vision to life across a variety of mediums.If you have a project in mind, I would love to hear about it. Share your ideas, goals, and inspirations, and together we can explore what is possible.
