Bespoke Commissions
Helena Traill takes on a limited number of bespoke commissions each year. Every commissioned piece begins with time spent painting en plein air (where possible), ensuring an authentic connection to the landscape. The final work is created in the studio using layered oils, building colour, mood and memory into a unique expression of place.
Prices start at £5,000. To request further information on the commissions process please get in touch below.
“We were just about to leave our much-loved family home of 25 years when, rather late in the day, I realised I wanted a painting of it. I hadn’t found anything I liked online, but was then introduced to Helena.
Helena came to the house and sat in the pouring rain, sketching and observing. We talked through her initial drawings before she returned to her studio to create the final piece.
During the process, Helena invited me to see the painting, and I was absolutely delighted. It is so much more than a picture of our home; it is a truly beautiful piece of art. It now hangs in pride of place in our new sitting room – a special reminder of our family home, and a painting I can enjoy in its own right.
Helena is hugely talented and a joy to work with.”
