I am SO happy that I found and chose C.J. to illustrate my first book. Everyone is raving about how beautiful and amazing my illustrations are. This would not have been possible without C.J's talent and artist expertise. He is straightforward, easy to understand, and easy to work with. I will DEFINITELY book him again for future projects and refer his service to others. If you're in doubt, THIS is the message that you needed to go ahead and book C.J. today! :-)

Artist CJ Love did such an amazing job creating the food art on my kitchen wall! He was very professional from the time he agreed to do the project to the time he completed the project! CJ Love reported on time to my house very prepared! He worked very hard, was well mannered, and listened attentively to the way I wanted the illustration! Once completed, he cleaned up his work space leaving my kitchen floor the way it was when he walked in- free of paint and clean! He was thoughtful of where he changed his paint water and cleaning his tools! Wow! I appreciate CJ Love and his talent! He is truly skilled and was wonderful to hire. I will definitely hire him again and refer him to whomever I can! Thank you so much!

Details: Indoor wall(s) • Residential • Small (less than 25 sq ft) • I have design drawings

FAQs

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
My process involves getting the details of the project, analyzing the specs of the project, and having the client provide me with photos or reference pictures. Once I have this information, I provide the client with an accurate quote. A half down deposit is due at the start of the project and the final deposit is due once the project is complete.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a BFA in Graphic Design from the Maryland Insitute College of Art (MICA).
How did you get started doing this type of work?
I was self-taught in drawing and painting. Art started for me as a hobby, But going to college helped me improve my skills and master computer programs to further enhance my skills.
