I can, if requested, send updates on the status of the painting, including photos if desired, unless you prefer to only see the end result.

At my discretion I may decide to offer you more than one selection at presentation depending on what you are looking for or what I think you are looking for, then it would be your choice to choose the one or more paintings (the other will go back into my inventory)

Please communicate with me if you have questions about any of the options requested on this submission form, it is meant only as a guide but also to be objective on what is requested.

If criteria for the painting is changed by the client after the painting has begun, additional fees may apply and no guarantee can me made that the alterations are possible although every effort will be made to do so, my goal is for you to be 100% pleased with the final result. In addition, if there is a significant disagreement in the direction the work is going at any point in time, I will advise you as to what artistically seems more appropriate, however as it is a commissioned piece, YOU have the final say as long as it meets reasonable guidelines.
