FAQs
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
After initial contact, via phone or email, I'll set up a face to face. Take a look at their space and solidify what they're wanting. We choose theme, color, design etc. Then a sketch is produced for them to approve. Once approved, a contract is signed and I get to work.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am mostly self taught. However, I excelled in art in school. I've taught painting for beginners, and hosted classes at the local High School. For the past 10 years I have traveled the US participating in art shows, as well as holding my own gallery openings annually in Columbia County. I was Program Chair for 1 term with our local art league.
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
While in school, I sold my first painting at 15. A few of my paintings I had done for family needed up in our local paper. After that a business man drove from Gainesville to meet me and offered to pay my way through art school. I didn't want influence of schooling and studying "masters" to take away from my vision. So I ventured out on my own.
