FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I am not a price gauger! My goal is to quote a fair price that takes into account labor and time involved. Often, customers have no idea the amount of work that goes into a project. I try my best to educate them and work with them to price within their budget. I also am NO LONGER to DO FLOOR-GROUND WORK due to a neck injury.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
The first item is to make sure I am a good match for them! I do this by making sure I have a clear understanding of their vision. Different artists are better suited for different art styles and painting surfaces. Once I am on board with the customer, we interact via email, texts, phone or even in person to polish the concept before touching their walls with paint. I then submit a sketch(es) for the customer’s approval and if it’s a go, I begin!
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I majored in Illustration at Georgia State University, took painting lessons at the Institute for American Universities in Aix en Provence, France and audited Art History classes in Florence, Italy at Gonzaga University. Of course internet research always helps as well as occasional classes to learn new techniques.
