What type of mediums do you specialize in?
I specialise in traditional mediums graphite and watercolour.Why do the artwork take so long to create?
Fine art takes quite a while to create. I can assure you that it is worth waiting for. Another factor is that I may be working on multiple commissions. I send progress shots of the artwork via email.Do you do custom animal/pet portraits?
Absolutely!Do you do painting of architectural buildings and/or landscapes?
I don't get too many requests for architectural buildings and/or landscape paintings. But I can certainly paint them if the reference photo is clear.Do you accept photograph taken from a cellphone?
Yes, as long as the photo shows the subject(s)' features clearly enough for me to use as a reference. Please do not send pixelated photographs.What is your refund policy?
• Original Graphite and Watercolour Portraits (Any Size): I am not responsible for any damage during shipping, but if client wants a refund, the artwork must be returned to me by mail or in-person (local clients). Once I've received it back, only then client will get the refund. If artwork is lost during shipping, unless client can provide proof (i.e. official letter/email from postal service) that the artwork did not reach its destination, no refunds will be given due to the nature of the item (original artwork).Where do you ship to?
• At this time I can only ship original artwork to Canada, US, Europe and some parts of Asia.
• I am not responsible for any added fees for items that go through Customs.Can I use the artwork for commercial purposes?
Once client received the paid artwork, client may use the artwork for both personal and commercial. Though, I would appreciate it if client properly credit me as the artist.
