Traditional Bajau Costume Poster Painting

I want to commission a hand-painted poster that celebrates the elegance of Bajau attire from Semporna, Sabah. The piece is meant to hang as a feature artwork and may also be shown in small exhibitions, so it needs to feel museum-worthy while still working in a poster format. What I definitely want highlighted is the unmistakable Semporna setting—think the calm turquoise sea, lepa-lepa boats gliding by, and stilted water homes in the distance. These background elements should frame the main figures without overpowering the clothing itself. I did not lock in a single painting style, so you’re welcome to propose a realistic portrait approach, a classic Sabah motif treatment, or even a cleaner modern illustration that still honours tradition. The key is that the final image must instantly read as “Bajau of Semporna” and convey cultural pride. Deliverables • Final artwork sized for an A1 poster (CMYK, 300 dpi) supplied as a high-resolution TIFF or PSD • A web-ready JPEG for online previews • A clear photograph or scan of any original canvas or paper piece, if you work in physical media • One round of revisions after the first colour draft If you have previous work featuring indigenous costumes, maritime scenes, or Southeast Asian culture, please share it so I can gauge fit. Let me know your preferred medium, your timeline, and any needs for reference photos—I can supply additional images of clothing details or Semporna scenery if required.
