Paint your own
A rough idea of what yours could look like. Send it to Tia and she'll take it from there.
The work
The aerial series is where the commissions live. The sacred work is where she started. The works on paper are where she plays.

Commission
Every painting is quoted on its own. Size and detail set the price. There's no list, just a conversation.
A few photos of your pool, court or garden, the room it'll hang in, and roughly how big you want it.
Within a week you get a pencil sketch and a quote. Nothing is paid until you've said yes to the sketch.
Three to four weeks on the canvas, then it's delivered in Sydney or shipped Australia wide.
About
Saints and crosses first. Then a tennis court, then a pool, each one seen from above and wrapped in the kind of border you find on a Lebanese tile.
In 2025 a pencil drawing she made at the kitchen table was projected three storeys tall onto St Charbel's Monastery in Sydney for the light show. That's still the one she can't quite believe.
She works from Sydney and ships anywhere in Australia.

Clothing
The tile borders are becoming prints. The one on the left updates with whatever you painted up top. The clothing side of By Tia lives on its own page.
