Frequently Asked Questions

Welcome! Here are answers to some of the most common questions about working with me and joining my workshops.

💡 How do you work with custom artwork clients?

When you commission a custom illustration, we’ll start with a short consultation to talk about your ideas, style preferences, and how the artwork will be used. From there, I’ll create two initial sketches for your review. You’ll choose your favorite direction, and I’ll refine it until it feels just right.

Once we land on a final design, I’ll create a full-color draft for your approval and make one last round of revisions before delivering your finished piece. Your illustration can be provided either as a physical artwork on paper or as a high-resolution digital file—whichever suits your project best.

🎨 What kinds of custom illustrations do you offer?

I create a wide range of illustrations, including botanical art, hand-lettered calligraphy pieces, editorial illustrations, branding artwork, and personal commissions. Whether you’re looking for a custom gift, art for your home, or illustrations for a creative project, I love bringing your ideas to life.

🖋️ How far in advance should I reach out for a commission?

It’s always best to reach out early—at least 4–6 weeks before you need your artwork. This ensures time for our consultation, sketches, and revisions. For larger or more detailed projects, I recommend getting in touch even sooner.

🧑‍🎨 Do you teach art workshops?

Yes! I offer hands-on workshops in watercolor, modern calligraphy, and illustrated journaling. My classes are friendly, beginner-welcoming, and designed to help you slow down and connect with your creativity.

📅 How can I find your upcoming workshops?

You can find my current workshop schedule right on my Workshops page. I teach at art centers and creative spaces around Oregon—and occasionally online. Join my mailing list to be the first to hear about new dates and locations!
