RECENTLY COMPLETED COMMISSIONS
Below are three recently completed commissions.
How can I commission you to paint a painting?
If you would like to commission a landscape or still life painting, please call me at 704-596-1286, or email me, to discuss what you have in mind. When commissioning a painting, we will usually start by discussing the details of the painting—the subject, size, medium, colors, etc. Then, I will draw and send you a compositional sketch or two for you to review. When ready to move forward, you will receive a commission agreement to sign detailing the agreed cost and estimated timeframe for completion. A partial deposit will be requested (the amount will be determined by the size and scope of the painting) along with the signed agreement, and once received, I will begin painting. Whether it's a subject you have always wanted painted, a spot on a wall you would like filled, or a unique gift you would like to give, it's easy to commission a painting.

ANNOUNCING SUMMER WORKSHOPS
I am in the beginning stages of planning plein air workshops for Summer 2008 in the Washington DC and Charlotte, North Carolina, areas. If you would like more information about these workshops, please let me know by emailing info@paulkeysar.com. I will let you know more details as planning progresses.

RECENT AWARDS / PUBLICATIONS FEATURING WORK
- Distant City Lights was awarded third place, in the Lake Norman Art League's 2008 Spring Exhibit, by Judge Carla Hanzal, Curator of Contemporary Art at the Mint Museum of Art in Charlotte.
