COMMISSIONS

Karlie Joy loves creating bespoke works that hold meaning, memory, and a sense of warmth. Pieces that feel personal from the start and continue to gather stories over time. Growing with you, evolving into quiet heirlooms that carry both where you’ve been and what’s still unfolding.

NOTES FROM COLLECTORS

  • "We couldn’t be happier with our custom 'Once & Always' heirloom piece from Karlie. It’s a beautiful, personal reminder of our son’s early years and the things he loves most during this time. From his favorite foods—blueberries, avocados, pasta, and kiwi—to playful touches like airplanes, wheels, fish, and piano keys, every detail in the artwork holds a special meaning. It’s not just a piece of art; it’s a timeless treasure that we’ll cherish as he grows, and a way to keep these memories alive forever."

    The Barnidge Family

  • "Karlie created a piece for us as a special gift from myself to my wife on her 30th birthday. Throughout the process, Karlie was amazing to work with - she’d often send updates and pictures, was very open to guidance about what we had in mind (though we found her instincts were always the right ones anyways), and in the end created a piece that we instantly fell in love with. It’s truly one of our favorite things in our home, and gives us so much joy whenever we walk past. We can’t thank Karlie enough and feel so lucky to have been able to work with such a talented artist. We hope to work with her for more commissioned pieces in the future!"

    The Kramers

  • “I have worked with many artists throughout my career as an interior designer. Working with Karlie was a dream. She made the commission process easy and she stuck to her timelines. The painting that Karlie created for my home is joyful, colorful, and it infuses life and energy into my dining room. Karlie considered the qualities that were important to me, and then used her artistic magic to create something truly wonderful. The painting will be treasured forever. Thanks, Karlie!”
