Pricing FAQ
What sizes are available?
Size is pretty much any size you want. Size recommendation sometimes depends on the medium. Take into consideration what the finished size will be after framing. For instance, an 8x10" watercolor or pastel after matting and framing would typically be 11x14".
Which mediums do you use?
You can choose from oil, watercolor, pastel, colored pencil or graphite pencil depending on your preference. I can also offer acrylic if that's your preference. I can offer suggestions based on the subject.
How are prices determined?
Base pricing starts at $1.00 per square inch, with adjustments made up or down depending on the number of subjects and medium.
Do you offer custom quotes?
Yes, I can provide a custom quote for special requests or combinations.
Is shipping included?
Shipping costs are calculated separately based on your location.
How long does a commission take?
That completely depends on size, medium, and complexity. It also depends on the number of projects currently on my schedule and other life events. Typically 4-6 weeks.
