Costa Belik
Portrait Commissions
Custom portraits in watercolor and drawing.
Commission an original portrait by Costa Belik, an artist based in Bangkok, Thailand. Works are made on paper from reference photos, with attention to likeness, atmosphere, emotional tension, and the quiet details that make a face or figure feel present.
Commission Work
Portraits from photographs, made as original works on paper.
A portrait commission can be a personal artwork, a gift, a memorial piece, a pet portrait, or a quiet image for a private space. The work is not treated as a copy of a photo, but as a drawing or watercolor with its own presence.

How It Works
Step 2
Choose the direction
The work can stay close to the reference or become more interpretive, with flowers, tension, softness, or a more intimate psychological presence.
Step 3
Confirm details privately
Size, medium, timing, shipping, and payment details are discussed directly in Instagram DM or WhatsApp before the work begins.
