FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Prices are calculated based on face painting being a custom design for each participant. This means that face paintings cannot be re-sold as in prints from traditional art sales. Therefore, there may be a higher premium for services.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Typically, when working with a new customer, I will talk with the prospect over the phone to get a better idea of the service needs and desires. This is followed by presenting a detailed quote. Upon acceptance of signed estimate/agreement, payment is made and event date scheduled. On the day of event, artist will arrive to the event site approximately 30 minutes early to setup. After setup, the agreed service time window begins. At the end of agreed service time, artist breaks down the face painting area and leaves the premises. No other business is required because payment has been rendered. Customers are only charged for agreed upon service times. If something goes wrong preventing artist to show up at the scheduled time, adjustment will be made monetarily up to full refund.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have been illustrating since childhood or for over forty years. I have taken art classes in college. I have also exhibited in art shows at the Garner Performing Arts Center (GPAC). Garner, NC, Hytai Heritage Cultural Center, Durham, NC, and I have had more than a dozen of my paintings displayed in various art galleries at the Wake Forest Baptist University Health Center, Winston-Salem, NC.
