Frequently Asked Questions
Why You?
Because I don’t just paint what you see—I paint what you feel. I take your vision, your story, or your favorite moment and bring it to life with bold precision, vibrant energy, and soul-level intention.
My work blends modern culture, abstract edge, and vivid realism—crafted with high-quality materials and a meticulous eye for detail. This isn’t wall decor; it’s a conversation starter. A legacy piece. A statement.
I’ve been trusted by collectors, celebrities, and pros—not just for my skill, but for my ability to tell a story in paint that makes people feel something. My work lives in homes across 17 countries and has been featured by brands like Nike, Vans, and the NFL Alumni. And I’m not satisfied until you’re genuinely in love with what we’ve created together.
If you’re ready for something unforgettable, let’s build it—together.
How Much Would It Cost For….?
Every custom piece is uniquely crafted based on size, complexity, and the vision we bring to life together. Original commissions at minimum start at $1,000 and go up from there. Whether you’re looking for a bold portrait of your favorite athlete, a tribute to someone you love, or a museum-worthy centerpiece, I’ll work with you to create something unforgettable. Payment plans are available, and serious inquiries are always welcome.
What is the turn around time?
The turnaround time for your custom piece depends on a few factors, especially the project’s specifics. Here's how it works: once you’ve paid your deposit, you’ll enter the queue. If there are three projects ahead of you, your project won’t begin until those are completed. If you ask for a time frame but don’t pay the deposit right away, your spot in the queue isn't secured, and your timeline might change.
Once your project is up, the actual work begins. While it varies by project, here’s a general idea:
- On average, a canvas painting takes about 3-5 business days.
- On average, a mural usually takes 7-15 business days.
Of course larger than average murals or paintings could take longer.
If you’ve got a deadline, let me know, and I’ll do my best to accommodate it!
What does the process look like?
First, reach out with your project details— click here to get started! Once we agree on the vision and what it’ll take to bring it to life, a 50% deposit is required to secure your spot. Once painting begins, that deposit becomes non-refundable. If you cancel before I start, 50% of your deposit will be retained as a holding fee for reserving your place in the queue.
While you’re waiting, feel free to send over any photo references or inspiration. A few days before I begin, I’ll check in—this is the final opportunity to request any major changes.
Once your piece is underway, I’ll keep you updated if you’d like, or keep it a surprise until the final reveal. When it’s finished, I’ll send a preview photo. Minor revisions can be made at this stage. Once you give the green light, I’ll varnish and cure the piece for 24 hours.
The remaining balance is due before shipping. I’ll confirm your address, pack it securely, and send it your way with a signed Certificate of Authenticity.
For murals, the process is similar (minus shipping). I’ll create and share a digital sketch after the deposit is made. Please note: any design changes after the sketch is approved and work has begun may incur additional costs.
How do you ship?
Once the full payment is made, I typically ship through USPS, but I may use FedEx or UPS if it makes more sense for your order. Regardless of the carrier, I’ll cover the insurance and provide you with tracking information so you can keep an eye on your package.
Here’s how I pack your artwork:
I wrap these in biodegradable honeycomb paper and secure them in a shipping carton. If we’ve decided your canvas will not be stretched, it’ll be rolled and secured in a postal tube.
Shipping usually takes 3-7 business days within the U.S. and 7-15 business days for international orders, depending on customs holds.
What if my painting is damaged in transit?
I take great care in packaging your artwork to ensure it arrives safely. However, if it does get damaged during shipping, don’t worry—I’ve got you covered. I insure all shipments, this means the carrier will be responsible for paying for your replacement, so we’ll work together to make it right. Proof is required for the insurance claim, so be sure to have clear pictures of the damage as soon as possible.
Are You Willing To Travel
Yes, I am! Whether you’re looking for a mural and aren’t local, need a live painter for your wedding or corporate event, or prefer to have your painting delivered in person—I can come to you. I have a U.S. passport, so as long as U.S. citizens are allowed, I’m ready to go! Just let me know in advance if you need me to travel, as I’ll need to check my availability, and there will be an additional cost for travel.
What Materials Do You Use?
I use only the highest quality materials to create my artwork because quality is a core value of mine. For canvases, I use premium, gallery-grade materials that ensure longevity and durability. My paints are professional-grade, celebrated for their vibrant colors and lasting finish. The cardstock for my collectible cards is also top-tier, ensuring that each piece is made to stand the test of time. Rest assured, your artwork is crafted with the utmost care and attention to detail.
What if I am not satisfied?
While I’ve only received glowing, 5-star feedback from collectors so far, I completely understand—art is a big investment, and you’re putting your trust in me with that deposit. But remember: you loved my work enough to reach out in the first place, and I’m confident you’ll love your custom piece even more.
That said, it’s not really possible. Before I start, I do a digital drawing that I use as a reference for your painting. Before I paint, I will send you a picture of that reference - so you will have an understanding of what the final piece will look like (splatters and drips and some brush strokes can’t be copied exactly - so it will be a 90 to 95% match- not 100%…but you will know what to expect and can make a major change request before I start painting.) If, for any reason, you’re not excited and smiling when I send the final image, let’s talk. Minor tweaks can be made before I seal the painting, and I’ll always do my best to make sure you’re happy with what you receive.
Please note that since each piece is 100% custom and hand-painted, major revisions after completion aren’t included, and deposits are non-refundable once I begin. But trust—I'm committed to delivering something you're proud to hang and thrilled to own. I’ll do my best to sort out any issues and make sure you’re smiling when you see your new piece. After all, I want you to love it as much as I loved creating it!
Do You Offer Payment Plans?
Absolutely! I understand that investing in art is a big decision, so I offer flexible payment plans to make it easier. With this I need some transparency from you! Let’s chat about what works best for you. Reach out to me and let me know what piece you are interested in and we can talk about a plan that will work for us both.
