HOW I WORK WITH YOU
My process starts with a brief phone or in-person conversation in which we discuss your basic needs, taste and interests, as well as my approach and services. That’s followed by a paid consultation called an Engagement, ideally at the place (home, room, office) where the art will live. It’s a fun process. If you engage me for a consultation, we’ll set aside at least 60 minutes. I like to talk to both partners in a home, if there are two, unless a client is buying for her or his personal space. I’ll get you to show me art and objects that are most meaningful and delightful to you. I’ll ask questions and maybe even look at old family photos. I’ll have you swipe through dozens of examples of art on my iPad, marking images that you like, love, don’t like or hate. I may take a few pictures of your room or home (all such images remain totally confidential). And then, from that that initial engagement, I’ll gather examples of art to show you the direction we will take if you decide to give me a project.
A Project is the second engagement. It can be as small as finding art for a single wall, or it may involve a room, hallway, home, office, business, restaurant or other space. We’ll agree on the scope of the project and I’ll write up a project contract, including, if you set one, a maximum art budget.
