Commissions

A major portion of Henry's work is produced on a commissioned basis.

A commission can give the private collector, a designer, or corporate art buyer an unusual opportunity to work closely with Henry.

While much of Henry Isaacs' output is produced in bodies of work shown in gallery exhibitions, the paintings and drawings are not produced with a particular client or installation in mind.

In many cases one of Henry's gallery representatives is involved and is able to add their years of professional experience to the planning.
