"Let's talk about a unique and suitable design for your project. I'll listen to your wishes and offer my creative input. When there is trust and creative freedom, I produce my best work. However, not every request involving painting or illustrating aligns with me as an artist. Therefore, please review my portfolio and the following information."

So, how does it work?
1
Gather information and send an e-mail
To clarify your wishes and describe the type of project, I would like to receive the following information:
​
-
Type of artwork
-
How, where and how long is the artwork going to be used?
-
Name of company or organization
-
Location
-
Measurements
-
Pictures of the wall, window, space and/or object
-
Does the wall have texture or is it plastered?
-
Select a range of visual references from my own past work | My instagram is a good start!
-
Add inspirational images to amplify your wishes
-
Color preferences
-
Do you have a budget in mind?
-
Preferred deadline
​
If you already have a briefing, that's great! It would really help if you check all information is included.
2
Quotation and Downpayment
After receiving all the information I will send you a proposal, my work method and extra information. There will be clear communication on what to expect and when. After confirming the quotation through e-mail I will start with the drafting process. Please note that in order to start drafting, a downpayment needs to be covered.
3
Brainstorming and Sketching
Based on the information I will do research, brainstorm and start with sketching. I will make a selection from the sketches to discuss with you through e-mail or a (zoom) call. Based on the feedback I will make some adjustments. For a wall or window project, I digitally design on the received picture to make sure you get the clearest possible idea of the result.
4
Finalizing behind my desk or on location
When you're happy with the result, I'll start with finalizing the piece.
Depending on the type of artwork and what it will be used for, I'll make sure it's delivered in the right way/file type.
Painting an artwork on location probably takes a few days to weeks, depending on the project. You will know in advance what I'll arrange for you and what is needed on location. Live painting is a memorable experience for you, your customers, employees and/or anyone who passes by.
