Commissions
Made for
your wall.
A portrait of someone you love. A tiger for the office. An abstract in gold leaf sized to the exact wall it will hang on. Nursel takes a small number of commissions each year, and every one starts with a conversation.
- 1
The conversation
Tell Nursel about the space, the subject, and what you want to feel when you look at it. Photos of the room help.
- 2
The direction
She proposes the approach — subject, size, palette, and whether gold leaf belongs in it — and confirms a timeline.

The piece
You see the finished work before it leaves the studio. Delivery within the GTA can be arranged; farther afield, it ships crated.
A recent commission
The Olive Tree
Sacred Symbolism in Gold Leaf
Painted for a family home: a biblical olive tree, its canopy worked in gold leaf, sized to anchor the main living space. It is the kind of piece Nursel most enjoys making — personal, specific, and built to live with.

From the first brushstroke
to the finished piece.
Nursel's hand-painted, Ferrari-inspired shield: the horse blocked in on yellow, then the line work and the lettering, and the finished piece on display.
