When did you start making art?

I've been making art for as long as I can remember. From the moment I was capable of holding anything that makes a mark, I've been making art. From drawing with sticks in the dirt to sneakly tagging my grandmothers living room walls and furniture with permanent marker. I made art for my family and friends throughout grade school. Friend of mine would even "hire me" to complete their school class projects, nevermind it being "cheating" I would happliy take on the work, haha. Fast forward to high school graduation in 2008. I decied to further my education with a Bachelors in Fine Art, graduating in 2012 from the University of Texas State San Marcos. I've continued onward with my professional art career ever since.

What is the art commission process?

The Process Size & Subject Matter: To get started, we will need to know the size(s), description, & any examples of previous ARTxLA to have a better understanding of what you are seeking! LA will set up a 30-minute consultation with you to get to know you better & gather more info. Process: After our initial conversation, LA's team will then draw up a contract after reviewing all specifics. Once we have your approval, we will have your canvas and shipping crate built to size, and the painting begins. At this point, we typically allow for 10-12 weeks for completion of each painting. Cost: We will go over all of the pricing information on our consultation call. LA requests a 50% deposit once the contract is signed by both parties, and once the painting is completed to your utmost satisfaction, the final balance is due, and your painting will be ready for delivery! LA will work alongside you throughout the painting process to ensure that you are 100% satisfied with your new ARTxLA!
