You Can Hire an Artist

Fine art – custom art – commercial signs – by Kathleen Benton

Custom Art

The following artworks were created on a freelance basis for private individuals or other art studios. They are not available for sale, but are shown here to demonstrate possibilities and a variety of styles for custom-made artwork. The pieces were made to the specifications of the client.

You may want to request a custom piece yourself. If you have an art project idea or inquiry, please send an email describing your project. (See the Contact Information page). You can hire an artist who will be happy to help you achieve your own preferences for custom-made art for your home or business.
