Some things should exist only once.

Joy + Sarcasm accepts commissions for hand-painted vessels, works on paper, objects and custom event design. Bring me a colour palette, an occasion, a half-formed idea or an alarmingly detailed moodboard. We’ll figure out the rest.

Watercolor painting of green and brown variegated leaves.

Hand-painted glassware for weddings, anniversaries, birthdays, gifts, dinner parties and occasions requiring slightly more ceremony than strictly necessary.

Custom commissions can include colour palettes, quantities, coordinated sets and variations on existing Joy + Sarcasm designs.

Vessels


Original watercolour, ink and mixed-media work commissioned within the Joy + Sarcasm visual language.

Landscapes, botanicals and other subjects that lend themselves to a little obsessive mark-making are particularly welcome.

Size, medium, complexity and pricing are determined individually.

Inscriptions


Small sculptural, decorative and functional pieces made with foam or polymer clay.

This is the more experimental end of the studio, so object commissions are considered individually based on the idea, materials and whether I can reasonably figure out how to make the thing.

Objects

Two champagne flutes with floral pattern design, resting on a light-colored surface.
Black and white drawing of two birds perched on leafless tree branches.
Two white koi fish sculptures facing each other within a circular gold frame, on a beige surface against a plain beige background.
A watercolor painting of a serene landscape featuring tall pine trees near a lake with a boat and sail, surrounded by green hills and misty mountains in the background.
