A Case Study of A Rose Commission for Craig Alan’s Work

Catherines Grandmother was 93 when she died. She was quite a character in her life, keeping an open fire in her home she insisted on chopping her own wood, she opted to use a chainsaw for the task in her elderly years, much to the frustration of her family as they worried for her safety!

She left a lifetime of happy memories with her loving family when she died, to commemorate her colourful life the family decided to put the inheritance she had left behind towards a piece of artwork to celebrate her life and remember her by.

The whole family visited The Rose Gallery when we hosted Craig Alan for an event, they took the opportunity to meet with the artist in person and decided he was the right person to entrust with this sentimentally important commission. Craig talked to the family about their Grandma to find appropriate ways to personalise the work, he suggested including a stencil of her with the infamous chainsaw within the commission work – a fitting tribute to this colourful woman.

The Rose Gallery team worked with the family to personalise the piece in a memorable way within an agreed budget, communicating with the artist after the show. The family gave Craig the freedom to add a little colour and his own personal flare to the work, providing photographs of Grandma so her personality could shine through. She was placed in Atlanta on this map inspired artwork, connecting her memory with the commission work as this is the artists own home town in America. Craig added US and UK flags to the work to memorialise the connection and add a deeper story to this special project. 

The project timescale was 12 months due to the size and complexity of the work, Catherine and the family love it and feel it was a memorable way to commemorate their dearly loved Grandma, with fond memories working with Craig Alan to create this artwork, it will truly be treasured forever within their family.
