Frequently Asked Questions
♦ How long do they take?
Honestly in most cases it takes longer for you to confirm design details than it does for me to complete the project. Depending on the intricacy of design, the size of the design and how many layers desired will depict the timeline. One thing for sure is when I give you a date for completion, I never miss a deadline and plan to keep it that way.
♦ How do I pay?
I ONLY accept email transfer as a method of payment. Once you deposit is received your project will commence.
♦ How does the process work? / Will I see a sketch?
Via email we confirm the size, number of layers, colors and theme of the project. You will need to send me a deposit of 50% before I commit to giving you a sketch from your ideas.
Most customers are thrilled with my ideas and usually will proceed with very minor changes (if any at all). If you are completely unsatisfied with my sketch additional drawings can be done for you for an hourly rate of...
Hand sketch: $40/hour
Digital: $50/hour
Once project is finished you will be notified by email with a picture of the finished piece, you will then be required to send me the final 50% plus shipping expenses (T.B.D. at shipping time) and I'll send you the work.
♦ Do I frame for you?
All commission work will be shipped WITHOUT frames.
I don't do framing because I am unaware of your personal decor so, I would recommend visiting your local frame shops for best results. The work is placed in a postal approved cardboard sleeve, covered in a safe bubble wrap envelope to ensure the piece is safe..

♦ Do you accept in a rush order?
Yes, we do EXPRESS shipping.
we can send the order with this method for an ADDITIONAL cost on top of the shipping costs already paid - in the U.S. it normally takes 3-5 business days, CANADA is 1-2 business days - if you choose this method to ship it shortens your shipping time - it does not make the processing time of your order faster. please email us first if you need an item faster and we will do our best to accommodate
