Painting Commissions Atlanta, GA

This morning I was reminiscing how positively wonderful my patrons are. My acrylic palette knife painting, "Rhapsody For You," was purchased to hang in a gorgeous home, over an exquisite fireplace.  My client showed the utmost respect and genuine interest in selecting her painting.  It was rewarding to see her so happy with my work!

This is me with the painting to show the scale of my larger work.  Funny thing, I'm working on an even larger painting right now, and I caught myself thinking, "This canvas just isn't big enough!"  My client wrote the following words describing her purchase:

"I love my painting, 'Rhapsody For You', that I purchased for my home; it has been a fabulous addition!  The painting is very colorful and emotional.  Thank you for this Jill!  Every time I look at the painting, I can feel the joy that you put into the artwork.  I especially like how the painting looks at night, when it seems to glow.  I have the painting above my fireplace, and smile every time I see it!" - Bridgette K. - Roswell GA

If you're looking for a painting, even an over-sized one, for that special place in your home or business, I paint commissions.  Please read about it on my website.  CLICK HERE

Martin Glaser, a legendary New York graphic designer, famous for creating the ‘I Love New York’ logo, recently spoke about something that’s dear to my heart.  He said, “If you can sustain your interest in what you’re doing, you’re an extremely fortunate person.  What you see very frequently in people’s professional lives, and perhaps in their emotional life as well, is that they lose interest in the third act.  You sort of get tired, and indifferent, and sometimes, defensive and you kind of lose your capacity for astonishment, and that’s a great loss, because the world is a very astonishing place.”
I guess you’d say I’m in the third act of my life.  I still find wonder in observing nature, seeing the cloud formations before a storm, and getting up early to watch the sun rise over the misty waters of the Chattahoochee River. 
The overflow of being astonished with life is expressed through my art, my friendships, and the general way that I conduct my business.
I agree with Martin Glaser, the world is a very astonishing place! - Jill Saur

My paintings are usually featured as the focal point of a room.  The two greatest compliments I get from my clients are that my paintings exude ‘joy’ and that they're hung in a prominent place for all to see.  
Why commission a painting with me?  Because you'll get the size painting you're looking for with the colors and subject matter that you want.  You'll own a one-of-a-kind original that will make a unique statement for your home or office.  Most importantly, you're going to get a painting that you love!
My studio is in Atlanta, Ga., but I work with clients all over the United States!  Are you wondering how you can trust commissioning a painting with me if you can't visit my studio? I can answer that question, "Your satisfaction is guaranteed!”  I’ve had success with all my commissioned work because  I take meticulous care of my clients.  If you're not happy, then I'm not happy!  - Jill Saur

My 8"x10" palette knife oil painting, "Aspen Breeze", has just the right amount of texture to lead your eye into the ambient aspen forest and spark a daydream or two.  The price on this piece is $300.00, a great price point to start or add to your collection.

Andre Gide once said, "Art is a collaboration between God and the artist, and the less the artist does the better".  It was from that collaboration that this painting was born.

I'VE GOT THE BLUES 


My 36"x36" acrylic palette knife painting is loaded with beautiful blue hues.  There isn't one brushstroke on it!  All the paint was applied with three different palette knives.  It was time consuming, but the result was well worth it.  It positively glows with brilliant hues. 

This, and many other works of art can be found on my new website.  Purchasing is secure and easy.  And, I now offer free shipping in the Continental U.S.!  www.JillSaurFineArt.com

“A tree against the sky possesses the same interest, the same character, the same expression as the figure of a human. – George Rouault”. (French painter) 

I rendered my 38”x48” acrylic aspen tree painting with brush and palette knife.  I closed my eyes and mused on one of my trips to Colorado, where the blue azure sky against the dancing white aspen trees ignite a flame of inspiration.  The title of this painting is, “Resilient Beauty”.  It hangs in the home of one of my patrons.  However, a limited edition hand-embellished giclee is available to purchase.  I also paint commissions.  Email me, CLICK HERE.

Aspen Tree Paintings By Jill Saur

The artist is a receptacle for emotions that come from all over the place: from the sky, from the earth, from a scrap of paper, from a passing shape, from a spider's web." - Pablo Picasso

I love playing with complimentary colors in my paintings.  After all, they bring out the best in each other!  My 10"x10" acrylic painting, "Red Sky" is a vivid, eye-catching piece that draws your imagination to the exciting possibilities in life.
