Commission a bespoke painting on your Leather item and make your piece truly one of a kind.

I work with you to layout your design with sketches for approval, then prepare and “deglaze” the leather surface in preparation for good paint adhesion. I use specialist leather paints from the USA, made specifically for retouching and decorating bags and sneakers. After the painting is dry I topcoat it with an acrylic clear topcoat to preserve the piece for years to come. 

Please note that leather painting on your item is not an embossed piece with 3d effects. That can only be created separately from specialist tooling leather as a standalone piece, or a patch which would get glued and/or stitched to your item.

Care 

The painting is a piece of hand painted art. As such, please take care of it and reduce chances where it can rub against other bags, clothing or handling. Keep the area clean with a lint free cloth, and let it dry naturally if wet. 

I may provide a one-off discretionary touch up at my own inspection. 

Criteria for paintability

Flat, firm, untextured surfaces are ideal for paint work. If the area is further protected by a flap- even more ideal to prolong the life of the piece. 

The ability to do so and price is quoted based on a review of the surface of your item. Kindly bring it into the shop or message me on Instagram to enquire.

Prices range from $60- $550+ depending on scale and complexity of the piece.  

Approximate prices:

$60+ logo, symbol, flower, letters etc 

$100+ pet portrait (per pet) 

$150+ pet full body (per pet)

$200+ Other designs based on scale and complexity 

The lead time is 2-3 months. Fees apply for commissions that require expediting under that time.
