FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My pricing ranges are posted in my profile. Please review and ensure I fit within your budget if you would like to work with me. If you are not ready to move forward with a project, please refrain, as your initial contact with any of us artists is $30 on average for us.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
We can ********************** to establish your needs and set a schedule. I then proceed to produce rough sketches/visuals/layouts for your comments and approval. I then continue adding details to your graphics or website, all the while keeping in constant contact with you to tackle questions, comments, or ideas.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have 3+ decade in the illustration field and have freelanced exclusively all of that time. I have a B.A. Degree in Studio Art from California State University Long Beach and an Associate Arts degree with an emphasis in the arts from Orange Coast College. And minor certificate from Laguna College of Art and Design.
