Artist Note:
By far, the best start to a successful commission is for
me to visit the site personally and get a feel for the area.
If this is not possible, the next best thing is for the clients
to provide plans, elevations, pictures or videos that will
help me to create something special for their home or corporate
setting.
Swatches of fabrics, rugs and wall treatments (paint chips,
wallpaper, etc.) are always helpful as well, to give me an
idea of colors and textures. An accurate measurement of the
area where the piece will be installed is a must; these should
include placement of fixtures and furniture placed nearby.
An unexpected ceiling fan could seriously thwart a well-planned
installation!
Shipping and handling expenses are not included in the artwork
proposals, nor are my visits to the site prior to submitting
them. These will be billed separately, as well as my participation
in any installation of the art. These additional sums may
be estimated on a separate proposal if needed.
I use only the best materials for my work to ensure your
satisfaction. Also, I take special time and care to create
a fine piece of artwork. If part of the execution of the
work is not to my satisfaction, you may be sure it will be,
un-done, un-sewn, un-woven, un- glued or un-beaded and re-done
until I am totally and completely satisfied!
Despite all this, however, I take a certain pride in knowing
that I have always delivered my projects on schedule (I give
myself extra time for tweaking!). My suggestion toward the
success of the project is that when you give me dates for
delivery and/or installation, you make sure that the site
is, in fact, finished and ready for the artwork. This avoids
having storage problems and situations where the art could
be soiled or damaged.
After all, my aim is that you cherish and enjoy my artwork!
