Question 5

So, what's your step by step process?"

Accepted Answer

First thing is first is a discussion with the client to figure out what exactly they are looking for. About 90% of the time, when clients reach out, it’s because the like my work and so they give me a general direction but still leave A LOT of room for creative freedom. I then figure out a concept and do not actually start working until I have a clear idea of what I want the final piece to look like. From there, I go in and start painting.

Rates in any creative profession are highly variable and rely heavily on the description and hours that go into the piece(s). Because of this, my rates are entirely situational. Best option – get in touch.
