Work Ethic
Karina is able to create portraits from a picture or a series of pictures. Most likely she will pick the clearest picture with the best quality you are able to provide. If possible Karina will take pictures of the portrait model herself. She will look for ways to include your wishes on composition. You can choose any format and frame. Pricing of the portrait is based on a certain set of variables. Karina will give you an estimate of commission costs and time. She will request 50% of that amount in advance and both you and Karina will sign a commission agreement. Once you completed the first payment she will order the materials. She will send you a picture of the composition on canvas. When you agree with the composition she will start painting. Karina loves to include you in the process and will send you two or three work- in -process pictures. Before she finish the painting with a varnish Karina will give you an opportunity to see the portrait in person. Then, when satisfied she will varnish and if called for- frame the painting. She will request you to fulfill the rest of the payment before she'll release the portrait to you.
Next to buying an existing painting through the webshop there is the option to have one totally customized. In a style Karina already offers or a style you have seen elsewhere. Provide Karina with examples and a picture of the subject you want to be painted. Karina can give you an estimate of commission costs and time when she knows the full scope of your wishes. She will request 50% of that amount in advance and both you and Karina will sign a commission agreement. Once you completed the first payment she will order the materials. She will send you a picture of the composition before painting. For a relatively tall project she might provide you with work- in -process pictures. Depending of the nature of the artwork Karina will provide either a picture of the end result or an opportunity to see the painting in person. Then, when satisfied she will request you to fulfill the rest of the payment before she'll release the painting to you.
When you like to commission a mural, it is good to know the characteristics of the chosen wall. Not all walls are fit for a mural in Acrylics. High structured wallpaper and porous (outdoor) walls might be a problem. Together with you, Karina will analyze if the surface is suited for a mural. You can bring in your own inspiration or could side-commission Karina for an unique design. She will offer a digital design drawn over a picture of the wall. Karina can give you an estimate of commission costs and time when she knows the full scope of your wishes. She will request the full amount in advance and both you and Karina will sign a commission agreement. Once you completed the payment Karina will order the materials and come over to paint the mural on set dates. She will take the required precautions to make sure the surroundings stay stainless during the completion of the mural.
If you are interested in original digital art made by Karina you can do this through commission. You can be very specific with your wishes. Together with her you brainstorm over the design that fits within your budget. Karina will provide a rough sketch and an estimate of time and commission costs if there is no budget when she knows the full scope of your wishes. She will request 50% of that amount in advance and both you and Karina will sign a commission agreement. She will start the digital drawing as soon as you completed the first payment. She will provide you with work- in -process images. The final design has a limit to the amount of changes that can be requested without requiring additional payment. Karina will mention to you when the limit is reached and give you a price per change you may request. She will provide you with a low quality image of the finished artwork first. Then, when satisfied Karina will request you to fulfill the rest of the payment together with additional costs if there is any before she'll release the digital art document to you.
Whether you need a logo, business card or any other form of digital design, the procedure is alike. Collect images of your inspiration from the internet, sketch out your idea or write in detail down what you are looking for. Share your ideas with Karina. She will fuse your ideas together in a simple digital sketch and give you an estimate of time and commission costs. She will request 50% of that amount in advance and both you and Karina will sign a commission agreement. She will start the final design as soon as you completed the first payment. In general, the final design will be very limited to the amount of changes that can be made without requiring additional payment. Karina will mention to you when the limit is reached and give you a price per change you may request. Then, when satisfied Karina will request you to fulfill the rest of the payment together with additional costs if there is any before she'll release the digital design document to you.
There are a lot of factors to consider during the startup of a project. It is not an requirement to approach Karina with a solid plan in place. A brainstorm session with an artist to create a well thought through plan might be very helpful to bring your ideas into a successful project. As soon as Karina has a clear idea of the scope of your project and what is expected of her, she can give you an estimate of time and commission costs. She will request the full amount in advance when the project is on location or 50% if Karina can realize the project in her studio. When the size of the project due to circumstances outside of Karina's control increases, she will mention this to you and bring the additional costs in charge. On location Karina will take the required precautions to make sure the surroundings stay stainless during the completion of the project. She will give you an opportunity to come see the project when it's finished and request for you to fulfill the rest of the payment together with additional costs if there is any before she'll release the project to you.
