FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
For logos I charge $30 per hour which includes researching for drawing references and sketching rough drafts. I will share the rough drafts with the client periodically to make sure I'm going in the right direction and allow them to add any suggestions. I also time myself when finalizing the logo in Adobe Illustrator. For fully rendered colored illustrations I usually charge at least $300. Depending on size, complexity, and time needed to complete the project, I will discuss the further charges. For example, illustrations for a book would be over $300.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I introduce myself and make sure that the client has seen my previous work so that way the have an idea of my drawing style and if they admire it. I also ask what their project is and the deadline for its completion. Depending on the deadline, I can either complete the project digitally or traditionally through pencil, ink, or watercolor. I will then provide the client with sketches so they can gauge if I'm the right fit for their project.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I graduated from Sam Houston State University with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in studio art with a focus on drawing. I also use Adobe photoshop and Adobe illustrator.
