Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Working with me

Do you accept custom commissions?

I am currently not accepting commissions but I can make exceptions if the subject matter is something that is already in my painting “list”. Please send me an email through my Contact page if you have any questions.

For book related commissions, please contact my literary agent Angharad Kowal Stannus at angharad@kowalstannusagency.com

Can I use your existing artworks as a tattoo?

I generally have no issues with it :) I actually find it amazing that anyone would like to have my art tattooed on their skin! But please tag or credit me when you post them on social media. I would like to see them too!

Can I use your works as reference for practice?

Yes you may! As long as it’s for educational purpose and not for commercial use, it is perfectly fine.

Process and Tools

What mediums do you work with?

Mainly watercolor, but I also use gouache, graphite and acrylic for traditional.

Procreate and Clip Studio Paint on my iPad for digital.

How long does it take you to finish a piece?

It depends on the project (size, complexity and timeline). Since having my son, my work hours have been greatly reduced but I try to work around 5-7 hours a day and I usually finish a small painting within 3-5 days including conceptualization and sketch.

What are the materials you use?
