Great service

This Maker has consistently demonstrated excellence in craftsmanship and customer service.

I'm a visual artist currenting residing in Portland, Oregon. I create work in a style I call Folk Surrealism using a combination of ink, gouache, and watercolor on paper. My style includes many bright colors, detailed patterns, and creatures of all sorts.

For CustomMade, my focus is on custom portraiture. I started drawing portraits a few years ago as part of a successful crowdsourcing campaign. Since drawing all of the portraits for my contributors, portrait illustration has become a large part of my artistic practice in business.

Outside portrait painting my work explores more themes such as femininity, violence, and mysticism. My work has a strong narrative drive which carries through each piece by a very thin thread.

Maker Policies

Shipping Policy

Area served: Anyplace I can mail a drawing to. Shipping Methods: I typically use the United States Postal Service but will consider other arrangements at the buyers request. All shipping costs are the buyers responsibility and will be added to the cost of the drawing (this may include the price of shipping materials as well).

Installation Policy

All of my mounted drawings come ready to hang. If you choose to purchase a piece without it being mounted then you can arrange for framing with your framer of choice.

Maker Policy

Portraits are not refundable or returnable. I work carefully with my clients to create a piece they will love. Look at my portfolio carefully, I have a specific style and cannot draw other people's styles or imitate other artists. Once a piece is being drawn I do not accept cancellations.
