FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Pricing is based on complexity, materials and time. Once the client agrees to move forward on a project based on preliminary sketches, I generally require half of the total the cost up front to cover materials...and the other half upon delivery.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I do preliminary research on whatever the subject matter is first. I check to see what's already out there and then aim at exceeding that. Then I do some preliminary sketches until I get a mental picture of the final product.
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
During my scholastic years, I was always the class cartoonist. Later on in the Air Force I became a base graphics specialist. Eventually I became involved in commercial art, then comic book publishing, fine art and political cartooning.
