A memorable performance, a sporting moment or a person who inspired you can provide a clear creative direction. Explain what should come through: energy, humor, admiration, nostalgia or a personal connection. That helps Brian develop an interpretation rather than a generic celebrity image.
02
Match the subject to the medium.
Colored pencil can emphasize drawn detail; vector illustration can create bold graphic shapes; a cube mosaic adds a physical grid and depth. The source image, desired size and intended display influence which approach makes sense. A small intricate reference may need simplifying for a large pixel portrait.
03
Discuss the reference and intended use.
Personal collecting, a commercial interior and reproductions for sale have different requirements. Bring source information and permissions into the first conversation. Brian does not claim official affiliation or endorsement by the people, estates or brands depicted.
The Prince case study offers a concrete example of one subject interpreted in cubes. Your commission starts with its own idea, proof, materials and agreement.
YOUR PROJECT
Tell Brian what you have in mind.
Share the subject, approximate dimensions, display location and timing in the existing inquiry form. Mention that your project is an art commission. Brian will discuss the idea, current availability and the appropriate next step before a scope is agreed.
You can discuss the subject and references with Brian. Feasibility, source-image permission and intended use are reviewed before the commission is accepted.
What should I send first?
Start with the subject or idea, approximate dimensions, a description of the space, your location and desired timing. Brian can explain which reference images or site details will help next.
