I

  1. Inquiry — You share size, subject, and a few images.

  2. Quote & Deposit — I send price + timeline; 50% deposit secures your spot.

  3. Sketch & Palette — I share a quick composition + color direction for approval.

  4. Painting — Layers, sanding, and glazing (my usual process). I send one mid-point update.

Typical timeline: 6–8 weeks (rush available).
