PRICING   “How do you determine your pricing?” This is usually the first question I get from potential clients. I completely understand that budget is usually the most pressing factor involved in your decision to purchase hand-made artwork. Like all custom-made products they are made to your specifications and are thus all unique situations. There are many factors involved in determining the pricing for a commission. These factors include size, timeline, complexity of design and location. So when asked that question my answer is “Well, that depends...let me ask you a few questions.”   Once I get a better understanding of your needs, wants and budget I can put together a proposal which includes 1-3 design sketches, that will not only solve your decorating problems and address your concerns and questions, but will also fit within your budget. I usually come up with several options that you can choose from and I take the time to explain the steps involved in each option. Please see “Commissioning a Mural” for info on consultations.   Some general notes on pricing: %50 deposit and signed estimate proposal required to schedule work. Pricing may be adjusted higher for complex and rush jobs. Discounts available for large and multiple orders. Pricing for pet and house portraits is standardized and listed on portrait “info sheets”.
