The commission process is actually quite simple.
Jill (S. J.
Pringle) usually meets with the client(s), and together they come up with a
vision for the piece. Clients sometimes have an exact idea of how the
finished piece should look, while other clients will ask Jill to give
suggestions until a final composition is worked out.
Jill can work
directly from existing photos, or put together pieces from different photos
She is also able to incorporate imagination into the commission if
required.
She is available
to take her own photos.
Once a vision is
reached for the piece, both parties sign a simple contract outlining the medium, size, due date etc A
fifty percent deposit is then given, and Jill starts the commission.
Depending on the
detail and the time of year, it may take anywhere from three weeks, to two
months to complete.
Once the art work
is completed, Jill meets again with the client(s) to unveil the finished piece.
Once in a while some changes may be required at which time Jill will complete
them.
Once the
client(s) are pleased with their commission, the other fifty percent is given.
Jill uses only
high quality materials in her work so the commissions she creates
can be enjoyed for generations.
