What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

I am a student of Forbes Business School currently studying Entrepreneurship for a Bachelor of Arts. I am an international artist and certified Art Therapist. NAACP award recipient, active in community building.

How did you get started doing this type of work?

I started my art business in 2014 because I enjoyed making people happy. Art has been the tool that I use to help me to do so.

What types of customers have you worked with?

I have worked with people from all walks of life, both children and adults. I have traveled to places like Dubai and Jamaica doing art, which has helped me to become multi-culturally diverse.

Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?

I enjoyed painting for my most recent clients for their halloween event because they won first place out of 140 people. The best part, they were amazing souls!

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

I would say to make sure you do your research on the person to ensure that they are reliable and talented. Always offer a beverage upon arrival and be nice to us when we get there :) Be kind, and most importantly, remember tips make us very happy, it tells us that you appreciate our gift and that encourages us to keep up the great work :)

What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?

Customers should think through their themes and what type of lasting memory they would like to create. It is important to be realistic about time, for example, 1 artist can usually paint about 10 people per hour, depending on details required. For more detailed paintings, it could take up to 1 hour per face. You determine the quality of the work based on the time you can afford.
