| Artist's Statement: | |
| I consult with the client to discuss the scope of the mural and decorative scheme, show samples if required and discuss pricing. Once it is established what might be required I can offer outline sketches or more detailed mock-ups and an idea of how long the work might take. As far as preparatory sketches are concerned if the job proceeds to completion they are part of the price. Should the project be aborted I would make a charge by prior arrangement with the client. Wherever practical I would advise work to be done on canvas away from site and installed on or near completion. I usually work with one assistant but can employ others for larger projects. | |
