All About Custom Work
I'm so happy you're here. Custom work has always felt like one of the most meaningful parts of what I do. It’s such an honor to create something just for you. My custom pieces are a blend of your ideas and my hands, and together we dream up something one of a kind. I can sketch something new, bring your vision to life, or recreate a piece you may have missed in a past update. I’ll walk you through how everything works below.
❀
How do I order?
I prefer to start customs through Instagram DMs because it’s the easiest place for you to send photos and inspiration. Everything stays in one neat conversation and it helps me keep track of the details.
Share as much as you'd like. Some people know exactly what they want. Others have a general idea and ask me to sketch a few options. And sometimes you might want a familiar design with a meaningful little tweak. Whatever your idea is, we will plan something special together.

Timeline
Most custom pieces take between 4 and 8 weeks, with pet portraits sometimes needing a little extra time. When you book a custom spot, I’ll let you know the exact date your project will begin. This is usually about a week or two after you place your order.
❀
Pricing
Custom work typically ranges from $95 to $600 and sometimes higher. It all depends on the complexity of the design and the materials needed. Once we talk through your idea, I’ll give you a clear price before anything moves forward.
❀
Payment
When everything is planned, I’ll create a custom listing for you on my website with all the details. You’ll be able to check out there, and payment plans are available. Once your payment goes through, your custom spot is officially secured.
All custom projects are non-refundable since each one is created just for you.

What happens next?
I’ll keep you updated while I work on your piece. You may even see your custom pop up in my Instagram stories or in a little studio post. It’s always fun to show the process and let you watch your piece come to life.
When it’s finished, I’ll send you a photo. If you’d prefer the final piece to be a surprise, just tell me. I love doing that too.

I hope this helped. If you have any questions at all, I’m always here.
Thank you for being here with me.
