COMMISSIONING ARTWORK
Commissioning a painting offers collectors the chance to create a personalized, original work of art tailored to their space and aesthetic. Unlike buying an existing artwork, a commission painting will be custom-made according to your preferences for size, colors and theme.
At Laasya Art, we regularly coordinate commissions with leading artists, guiding clients through every step from concept to completion. The commission process involves discussing your vision, refining the concept together, reviewing sketches and mockups, and finally having the artist create your painting. Working with an art advisor makes this journey smoother—our years of experience help us translate your vision to the artist while honoring each artist’s unique style and strengths.
RECENT COMMISSIONS
COMMISSIONED ARTWORK BY SENAKA SENANAYAKE
California, USA
This client sought a large-scale painting for their dining room, without a specific artist or theme in mind. We suggested a few options, and the client particularly connected with artist Senaka Senanayake’s white lotuses from his Rainforest series. White lotuses are symbols of peace and purity, and the final 5 x 7 foot painting exuded positive energy in the space.
COMMISSIONED ARTWORK BY BHARTI PRAJAPATI
Mumbai, India
The client’s home had a neutral color palette, and they hoped to add color through art. We proposed a painting by artist Bharti Prajapati, with a scene of dancing women in vibrant colors. The final painting brought exactly the liveliness and warmth the clients envisioned.
COMMISSIONED ARTWORK BY RAMESH GORJALA
California, USA
After admiring artist Ramesh Gorjala’s work for a long time, this client decided to commission a painting of Hanuman, inspired by her family’s tradition of chanting Hanuman Chalisa every night. The canvas had to fit very specific measurements, since the painting would ultimately hang in a narrow wooden panel above the fireplace. Ramesh cleverly designed a composition that would best fit a vertical orientation and used color sparingly, to keep the visual focus on the figure of Hanuman.
COMMISSIONED ARTWORK BY BASUKI DAS GUPTA
Texas, USA
An admirer of artist Basuki Das Gupta, the client initially gravitated towards his paintings in warmer hues of reds and yellows. However, that color palette did not complement the other artworks in the room, so instead we created a unique shade of blue by mixing five or six colors to achieve the desired warmth. The client shared that the paintings look “absolutely stunning” in the home.

TESTIMONIALS
I can’t tell you how much I love Laasya Art. I saw a painting a few years ago in a magazine that I fell in love with, and then I found Laasya gallery a few months ago. Sonia and her team reached out to the artist and helped us commission a work, guiding us through the commissioning process, making a plan that we were all happy with, and going back and forth throughout to update us and finally having it shipped to California safely. We picked it up in her gallery last week, and it is stunning and better than we could have imagined. She was so welcoming to our kids and we got to see so much beautiful art (we are tempted to buy another piece!). The collection of contemporary Indian art is so well curated and so unique, it is a real treasure to have this in the USA!

Working with Sonia at Laasya Art gallery was a fascinating journey into appreciating the art world and discovering our passion. Sonia was very patient with us throughout the process, providing the level of expertise that gave us confidence in our choices, and then she was a great partner as we identified the artists and their inspired work. The custom works were done to perfection, and Sonia stayed engaged to ensure we were supported all along the way. We will go back to Laasya Art as we completely rely on Sonia’s expertise in this field.

Working with Sonia was an absolute pleasure. The experience was seamless and highly professional — from the very first conversation, in which she got to know us and our tastes in art, all the way through her working with us and the artist on the commission, and shipping the painting over to us. We’re delighted to have a piece on our walls that brings us great joy, and look forward to working with Laasya Art again.
