Watercolor Custom Nautical Chart
THE PROCESS:
1. Purchase the commission emailing Patrizia first. This holds your spot on Patrizia's calendar.
2. Email the following to [email protected]
- Location of the chart (What is the chart of?)
- Provide 5-7 reference photos of what you would like to have painted, if you have them.
- Provide other thoughts on what you are hoping from your commission. Please elaborate as much as necessary, as this information is critical to a successful commission.
- Colors you love
- Colors you want to avoid (this can be left blank though!)
- Specify whether or not this piece can be shown on Instagram/Facebook
3. Painting commences, typically within 4-6 weeks, or agreed upon time period. Painting is usually completed within 1 week of beginning.
5. Patrizia emails pencil sketch photos approximately at the beginning of the commission Upon completion of the painting, Patrizia will send a final photo, and collector gives approval or minor edits. Any extensive edits (as judged extensive by the artist) beyond that are subject to a 10% additional fee.
6. Collector pays shipping invoice if he/she hasn't at the beginning
7. Painting ships to collector! Woohoo!
