Commissioning a FLY Miami Piece: Process, Timeline, and Pricing

Most FLY Miami Art collectors find the piece they want already in the catalog. A meaningful number want a piece tuned to a specific space, story, or color palette. That is what a commission is for. Here is how the process works from first email to final delivery.

Who commissions are for

Commissions make sense when the collector has a specific size constraint (a wall, a foyer, a courtyard), a personal story they want carried into the work, a color palette tied to a room or brand, or a public space where a custom piece will live.

Step one: the conversation

The process starts with a short email through the Contact page on flymiami.art. The studio asks a few questions about size, location, theme, palette, and timeline. Most first conversations are completed in one round of email or a short call.

Step two: the proposal

Within one to two weeks of the first conversation, Facundo sends a written proposal. The proposal includes a description of the piece, dimensions, finish notes, a price, and a delivery window. If the proposal is accepted, the studio sends an invoice for a 50 percent deposit to begin work.

Step three: build

Build time depends on size. A small commission can complete in four to six weeks. A monumental piece can take three to four months. The studio shares progress photos at key milestones.

Step four: review and finish

Before final finish, the studio shares photo and video of the piece in the studio under both daylight and blacklight conditions. The collector approves the look. If adjustments are needed, the studio handles them before the final coats.

Step five: delivery

The remaining 50 percent is invoiced before shipping. Pieces ship in custom crates or rigid mailers, fully insured, tracked. Local Miami collectors can arrange white glove delivery and installation directly with the studio.

Pricing benchmarks

Custom commissions follow the same general bands as the catalog. Small wall commissions begin around $2,500. Mid sized sculpture commissions land between $5,000 and $10,000. Monumental wall pieces and public scale sculpture begin at $15,000 and scale with size and complexity.

Why commission a FLY Miami piece

A commission is the only way to own a work tuned exactly to a space and a story. The piece carries the same hand, the same materials, and the same UV reactive layer as everything in the catalog, with the bonus of being made for one collector.

Most FLY Miami Art collectors who commission a piece commission a second one within twelve months.

Peace. Love. Joy. Unity.
