The Process Explained…

 

Inspiration

We start with the vision for your piece. This is where we will discuss your color choices, reference images if you have them, and other details about what you want your special piece to be.

I work in various styles from relatively abstract to more realism and anywhere in between. Therefore, it is helpful to know which of my previous pieces inspires you!

Size

Next, you get to choose the perfect size for your space and budget. I offer four different sizes that are perfect for standard framing and matting. But ask about a custom size if these don’t work for you!

5”x7”, 8”x10”, 11”x14”, and 16x20”

Sketch

Now your piece is in the works! I will send some photos of your painting along the way to make sure you approve of the color palette and the design.

Materials

I work primarily in digital format. This allows for various delivery options of your piece to accommodate anyone’s budget. I strongly believe that art is for everyone and having options makes my art more accessible! You decide which format you prefer from the options below:

Paper Print: *Most popular option.

All prints are printed on 100% cotton, slightly textured, smooth fine art paper that has exceptional color reproduction. This is an archival paper using archival pigments, meaning your piece will last a lifetime! You simply put your piece in a frame of your choosing and hang.

*Tip: when choosing a mat/frame, choose acid-free materials in order to protect your beautiful print.

Canvas Print:

These are printed on heavy high-quality canvas that is OBA-free, meaning it will not yellow and color vibrancy will be maintained. Canvas prints come ready to hang and look beautiful with or without a frame.

*Canvas prints are only available in size 16”x20”.

Printable/Downloadable:

This is the most cost efficient option. You will receive your artwork as a printable JPG file. No physical artwork will be sent, so this is the fastest delivery time if you’re in a time crunch. You can then have your painting printed wherever you like.

*Available in any size, can be customized.

Price

Once you choose your size and material, a contract will be emailed for your signature. Pricing is based on the scheme below. For paintings with more than two subjects, price may increase by about 5-10% per subject due to the added time it takes to complete those pieces.

Canvas Prints:

16”x20” - $205

Paper Prints:

16”x20” - $112

11”x14” - $85

8”x10” - $75

5”x7” - $60

Printable/Downloadable:

Any Size - $45

A 50% deposit is required to get started. I will send an invoice to your email. Final balance is due prior to shipment of your piece.

**Allow 4-6 weeks for final completion and delivery of your artwork
