FAQs

I want a commission. How does this work?

​

1. Reach out to me via website form or Instagram DM. Please include which medium you are interested in (graphite or  gouache), and approximate size. 

​

2. I will then ask for reference photos. We will discuss and finalize the perfect one and will come up with a price and timeline for project completion. 

​​​

3. When the work is done, I will send you a photo for approval before sending it off.

How does payment work?

​

A 50% deposit will be made at the start of the project, and the remaining 50% and shipping fee will be paid after shipping. 

I like how the head of the animal/person looks in this photo, but I like how their body looks in this other photo. Can you reference both to make one piece?

​

No. Proportions can easily get distorted leading to a wonky looking finished product. 

What is pricing like?​

​

Drawings start at $100* for a 5x7.

Paintings start at $80* for a 5x7.

* Pricing is subject to change based on subject matter. 

** Shipping fees are not reflected in price.

​

Reach out for pricing on larger pieces. 

Do you only work in graphite or gouache?​

​

No! I can work in a variety of mediums, combine mediums, or try a new medium. Reach out!
