FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
At faires and festivals I charge per face, corporate events are per hour, and for the charities I choose to support I leave it open to negotiation.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I belong to ITP “Inspiration to Paint” and ITT “ Inspiration to Twist” groups in Facebook that encourage daily practice. Both groups challenge their members to reach out past their comfort zone to become better at their art. I also go to at least one convention each year to keep up with trends and learn from the icons in my fields.
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
Because of my art background I was asked to paint the kids at my congregation's children's party. I thought it would be a one time thing but after moving away from family I missed my kids and this helped..I now take it very seriously.
