Our commissioning service
Through our commissioning service, we help connect people wanting a work of letter carving with the right artist from our register of expert craftspeople. We demystify the commissioning process for clients and advise them on what to expect over the course of the project. We take a small percentage of the artist’s fee to help fund our training programme.
Letter carving plays a unique commemorative role in our national and personal lives. It’s an age-old way of sharing what matters to us, with others and with future generations. Working with an artist to create such pieces is a way of spreading the joy of a celebration and can be of comfort to those suffering grief and loss.
If you would like to talk to us about commissioning a work, we are here to guide you through your decision making and advise on which artists would suit your needs.
You can phone us on 01728 688 393 or fill out the enquiry form.
We believe that a few words carved in stone can enhance our environment whether it is in a churchyard, garden, or wild landscape. It’s an enduring expression of our human connection to time, place, nature and each other.
Memorial design
Hand-made, bespoke memorials are as individual as each of us. The design and form of a memorial is developed through discussion between the artist and client to reflect the character and personality of those they commemorate. Below is a selection of work commissioned through Memorials by Artists that shows the range and possibilities of the craft. Please contact us if you would like to discuss commissioning a work of letter carving.
