The questions and answers below explain how to commission a Johne Makin Painting.
Who does the artwork?
- All commissions are undertaken by Johne Makin. Paintings can be undertaken from observation or photographs.
What medium will be used?
– Johne Makin works in acrylic on canvas only.
What size will the work be?
- The size of the finished work will depend on the nature of the commission and on your own preferences. Size can range from a small sketch (e.g. 6" x 4"), to a larger work (e.g. 16" x 11").
How will you deliver the artwork?
- The work will be delivered by regular "snail mail" service (air-mail for overseas orders). The work will be unframed and unmounted. Small sketches will be delivered flat in stiffened envelopes. Larger works may be rolled and delivered in a postal tube. Works such as oil paintings, which cannot be rolled, will require special packaging arrangements.
How much will it cost?
- The cost involved will vary according to the size of the artwork and the medium used. If you send your requirements, we will provide you with a written quotation.
How do I pay?
- We will agree on the charges before Johne undertakes the commission. For small commissions, payment in advance is required. For larger orders, an initial payment will be required in advance, with the balance payable on completion of the commission.
Payment can be by cheque (check) in GBP, or by international money order or cheque in British pounds sterling. If your payment is not in British currency, we will have to add a surcharge to cover the cost of currency conversion.
How do I get things moving?

How long will it take?
- Johne will give you an idea of the timescale before accepting the commission.
