I've undertaken a commissioned artwork, what should I bear in mind?
We cannot emphasise enough; Communication is Key!
We strongly recommend keeping your customer in the loop at every stage of the process. A few well-timed updates can make a huge difference and help them feel involved as their artwork comes to life.
For example, send them a message when:
- You’ve got everything you need and are ready to get started.
- You’ve made a start. A photo here would be great, and yes, feel free to add a banana for scale.
- You’re halfway there. Another photo is a lovely way to show the progress.
- YOU’VE FINISHED! This is a big moment, so send a photo and let them see the finished artwork.
- The artwork has finished drying.
- The artwork is ready to be sold and shipped. Please send us a message at this point too, so we know it’s ready to go.
And, of course, if you hit any snags or unexpected bumps along the way, it’s always worth keeping your customer updated. Good communication goes a long way!
