Frequently Asked Questions
What does it cost to hire you?
Prices vary depending on a few factors including size, materials, prep/design work, execution/performance of the work, and miscellaneous factors (travel, parking, etc). The best way to price out your project is to contact me with your project idea and include as many details as possible.
How long will it take to complete my project?
For murals: Not all surfaces are created equal. A few factors are taken into consideration when estimating the length of a project. These include the texture of the surface, the level of detail in the piece, and temperature/weather conditions, just to name a few.
For chalkboards: Once the concept art has been finalized, turnaround time is really quick- usually 24 hours or less.
How does 3d chalk art work?
Funny you should ask- I wrote an entire blog post about it. Check it out!
Can you create concept art for me?
Absolutely- once a contract is signed and the deposit is received. Due to the high volume of projects at any given time, I cannot create concept art for a client to help them decide whether or not they want to hire me. Thank you for your understanding.
Can you see my space and make recommendations?
For a $50 nonrefundable fee, I can scout out a space prior to any other agreement. If you decide to proceed with the project, this scouting fee will go towards the full amount of the project. If you decide not to move forward, the fee is nonrefundable.
Can you paint or primer my wall for me?
I do not paint walls, but I can recommend people that do.
Do you rent chalkboards?
I do not rent chalkboards, but I can suggest online retailers and brick-and-mortar stores where you can purchase them.
Can you make my chalkboard art permanent?
Yes! This option was developed for clients who leave chalkboards outside and don't want to worry about rain or other potential damage. I have a permanent chalk treatment that won't be affected by rain or curious hands.
What happens if it rains while you're creating an outdoor chalk mural?
This is by far the most frequently asked question! Unfortunately, sidewalk chalk is water-soluble which means that it will begin to wash away as soon as it gets wet.
