Want to know more or interested in working or collaborating with me?

For any proposed engagement, please have a budget, flexible and realistic timeframe and clear brief ready before contacting me. While I would love to say yes to every engagement or request, I am only one person and I need to be able to assess the work and time required of each request. If you are mob, please mention this up front. 

It is very helpful to me if you could include the requested information via email at sarracreative@gmail.com or the form below. For any request to work with me please include:

Brief: upfront information about the purpose of the work, the type of engagement, what is involved, any other people or companies involved, proposed timeframes and budget. Transparent information about the proposed engagement helps me to make an informed decision about the work and get back to you with a response.

In terms of my own timeframes, I am generally unable to deliver work urgently or quickly. My response time and timeframe to deliver work is subject to my own creative process, existing commitments, and busy times like NAIDOC week or in the lead up to Christmas. If you are a company or government body, please include information about your background, previous experience working with Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander artists, and reason for wanting to engage with me as an artist.

Type of engagement:

  • Commercial collaboration or commission

  • Licensing: If you would like to licence my work on a product that will be sold, please make sure you have an idea of the recommended retail price and the quantity of proposed products.

  • Murals: If you would like to commission a mural, please ensure the brief includes the size of the wall, the type of wall (brick, board etc), access to the wall and if it will require machinery. My quote includes the artwork, materials, and machinery. Some job requests are just too big for one person so in some instances a trained and paid assistant may be required. This will require additional fees to be paid. Murals start at $5000 + GST excluding all required materials and machinery.

  • Personal commission: I only have the capacity to take on a few personal commissions per year. My commissioned acrylic paint on canvas artworks start at $3000 + GST excluding all required materials.

  • Consulting services:

  • Media: radio, television or interviews including podcasts.

  • University students: If you are a university student requesting an interview for your assignment or research please email through your questions as I will be unable to do interviews over the phone.

Budget: for each type of engagement please include a proposed budget and payment structure and be willing to negotiate in good faith. Keep in mind that budget should not only cover standard costs relating to the type of engagement, including materials, my time to do the work and participate in meetings and calls, amending drafts, reviewing and approving, but also the value of my Indigenous cultural and intellectual property as an artist. If there is no budget, mention this up front as I will still consider the request.  

Agreements: in most cases I will provide you with my own contract terms for the engagement (unless we agree otherwise) to protect my copyright and Indigenous cultural and intellectual property rights. For any engagement it is important for me, among other things, to have the ability to review, request changes and approve the work, final product, or written publication before anything is made public. This is to maintain my own artistic and cultural integrity in the work and ensure proper attribution of cultural stories and knowledge that inform my work.

 Communication: My preferred method of communication is email and I will be available for calls by prior appointment.

 Look forward to hearing from you
