Getting Started
If you would like a commission, please e-mail me on the day when my queue re-opens. (This information can always be found in the queue page on this website.) To reserve a commission slot, I will need to know:

• How many heads would you like me to work on?
• When you would like to send them (what month)?
• Are you looking for anything other than a basic faceup? (Freckles, scars, and tattoos are not included in a basic faceup.)

1. Please copy the commission form and complete it with as much detail as you would like. E-mail it to me.*
2. I will acknowledge that I've received it, ask you any questions I may have, and confirm details with you. At that point, I will give you an exact price quote, provide you with payment information, and give you my address.
3. Send your heads so that they arrive before or during your commission month (see #4 & #5 below, under General Notes).
4. I will acknowledge when I receive your heads and let you know that they are safely in hand.
5. Payment is expected before I begin work unless we discuss otherwise.
6. I will send progress photos throughout as I work on your head. At each stage, you will have the opportunity to have me change elements of the faceup so that it best matches what you request. I am happy to repaint a head from scratch once, but there will be an additional charge if I have to do this two or more times.
7. Once your head is completed and approved, I will ship it back to you. Please always let me know when you receive it safely!

General Notes

1. I will accept up to 3 heads per person.
2. Turnaround times will vary quite a bit (my work demands extensive travel), but I usually need between one and two months to complete a commission.
3. I will stay in contact with you throughout the process, and you may certainly contact me at any time to ask how things are progressing. I try to always answer within two days.
4. I work in the order I receive the heads for that month, so regardless of if you're #1 or #7 for a month, if I get your head first, that's the head I will work on.
5. I will hold a reserved slot for you for up to two months. If I have not received your head within those two months, you will have to request a new slot. (Please understand that I do this to prevent a terrible backlog and slowing everyone down!)
6. Please understand that I won't copy another artist's work. I'm happy to look at samples of what you like and try to incorporate that look into my own work instead.
