I have been on the other end, having people commission me ....to paint quite large art for them.
Depends on who you are talking about.
Would the average person have it done...No.
Without being unkind or disrespectful, Art is not something the mainstream person would think about maybe even once a week.
It is what I call a Luxury.
So for people who can afford it, appreciate it, and want it....they fall into the category of asking for an Artist, to do a painting for them.
I have painted for a Judge, a Millionaire,and even a Real Estate Agent, to mention a few.
All loved my kind of painting(contemporary) on canvas.
They tell you what they do not like, and allow you to paint within certain guidelines.
For me...I was very pleased all loved my work.
I make it clear what it is I feel I would like to do, in keeping with their homes.
Art is something people like to invest in, and others just love to look at .
Art is also not something most people can invest in, or may even care about.
It is a personal Luxury.
