Artwork Commission Agreement

An Artwork Commission Agreement is a legal contract between a client (individual, business, or institution) and an artist, setting the terms for creating a custom artwork. It typically includes artwork specifications, materials, size, style, delivery timeline, payment schedule (deposit and final payment), intellectual property rights, reproduction permissions, confidentiality, cancellation policies, and dispute resolution. This agreement ensures clarity, protects the artist’s creative rights, and secures the client’s expectations. From 2022–2024, demand for commissioned artworks—ranging from fine art to digital design—increased significantly, especially for corporate branding, interior decoration, and personal collections. Forecasts for 2025–2030 expect 8–10% annual growth as art commissioning expands into digital art and NFTs.
