In this episode I’m talking about commissions with NZ artist Sally Bulling, who specialises in mirror paintings incorporating a variety of materials like paint, resin, and stickers. We discuss the delicate balance between commissioned work and personal pieces,and the ways commissions can push an artist’s practice in unexpected and rewarding directions. We talk about the financial upside of a commission and how they can allow experimentation with new materials and ideas. We also chat about the importance of maintaining relationships with galleries alongside commissions and Sally shares insights on managing client expectations, communicating clearly, and the benefits of taking time with commissioned pieces.
