Custom Hawa Animal Portrait Commission

CUSTOM HAWA COMMISSION

HOW IT WORKS

You send clear photos of your cat, dog, pet alligator, or other animal.

Eve Hennessa uses your pet’s markings, attitude, and spirit as the starting point for a completely original Hawa artwork.

It will not be a realistic pet portrait. It will become part pet, part icon, part Hawa — a collectible artwork in Eve’s unmistakable style.

AT CHECKOUT, YOU WILL BE ASKED FOR YOUR PREFERENCES.
Share if there is a specific trait in your cat, dog, or animal that you want emphasized. You can also mention if there is a traditional Hawa Cat eye style you like — feminine eyeliner eyes, side-eye eyes, beleaguered eyes, or a frowny grumpy-cat face.

Eve Hennessa elevates your pet into the Hawa universe as a brand-new original.

Infused with every striking detail from your reference photos — the bold markings, rich coloring, and captivating presence — she forges a powerful, original Hawa artwork that stands alone as rare contemporary art: timeless, personal, and destined for premium collections.

Digital commissions begin at $500 for cats and $750 for dogs.

Only a limited number of commissions — just a few pieces each month — are available.

WHAT’S INCLUDED

Each commission delivers a museum-grade, high-resolution digital file (print-ready up to 40+ inches) — yours to own, display, archive, and use forever.

- Choose from 10+ signature Hawa universe backgrounds — opulent gold leaf, dramatic nocturnes, sleek minimalism, and collector-favorite scenes.

- Get a signed certificate of authenticity (digital encryption) + professional printing guidelines.

- .Full commercial usage rights for your specific finished artwork, i.e.  personal branding, merch, books, social, etc.(subject to the limited license terms below)

Every piece is created to the same exacting standards as Eve’s gallery paintings and collectible editions — bold, luxurious, timeless, and unmistakably Hawa.

WHY COLLECT A HAWA COMMISSION?

This is not a generic pet portrait.

This is Eve Hennessa — a museum-exhibited contemporary artist whose large-scale paintings command five-figure prices — personally inducting your pet into her iconic Hawa canon.

The result is a genuine, one-of-one original artwork that carries the same DNA as her most sought-after pieces. It becomes part of your family legacy, your interior statement, and your growing collection of meaningful contemporary art.

A Hawa commission is the ultimate conversation piece for the discerning collector.

USE YOUR HAWA COMMERCIALLY

Own the rights to your specific finished artwork outright.

Use it freely for personal branding, books, merchandise, apparel, social content, or business concepts. Your Hawa becomes your exclusive character asset — while remaining part of Eve Hennessa’s larger, ever-expanding universe.

This is where personal passion meets real cultural capital.

FUTURE CUSTOM PROJECTS & UPGRADES

True collectors often expand their Hawa into a full private universe:

- digital animations

- Large original paintings

- Museum-quality signed physical prints (available as a premium add-on starting at $1,200) — hand-signed by Eve on archival fine art paper or metal, with embossed seal and certificate of authenticity.  All extensions and upgrades are quoted separately at collector-level pricing after the base digital commission is complete.

ARTISTIC VISION & PROCESS

Every Hawa is first and foremost an original artwork by Eve Hennessa.

While your pet’s distinctive markings, coloring, and spirit are faithfully honored, the final piece is created in Eve’s signature Hawa style — bold, expressive, and instantly recognizable as part of the canon. It may not replicate an exact pose from your photos (Hawa has its own iconic stance and attitude), and dogs will receive a fully custom interpretation rather than a literal copy of any single image.

Eve draws from multiple references of the same breed and personality to craft something that feels true to your pet while remaining a powerful, cohesive Hawa. She creates the art she loves — the version she knows will look extraordinary on your wall and hold its value as a serious contemporary art piece.

This is not a photo-replication service. This is artistic alchemy. The result is a universally compelling original that you can proudly display, gift, or even resell — because great Hawa artworks are timeless collectibles.

You can see the exact style and quality across all of Eve’s existing Hawa works before commissioning.

USE YOUR HAWA COMMERCIALLY

Eve Hennessa retains full copyright and all rights to the commissioned Hawa artwork.

The collector receives a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use their specific Hawa however they want for personal enjoyment and commercial purposes — including prints, merch, apparel, digital products, and social content — with the only restriction being total gross revenue from sales of the artwork not to exceed $30,000 USD.

Any revenue beyond $30,000 requires prior written approval and an additional licensing fee.

Eve Hennessa reserves the unrestricted right to use the artwork in any way she chooses, including exhibitions, marketing, future collections, and the broader Hawa universe.
