Commissions by Kenn Speiser
http://www.rustprints.com/commissions.html
I have been involved in many commissions over the years and really enjoy the creative collaboration that comes from of working with other people. Perhaps it is because of my years teaching, that I particularly like talking to non artists who have a concept of what they want, but do not know how to bring it to reality. If you have a specific place or project idea you would like to discuss, please feel free to contact me.
