FAQ

  • How are your paintings made?
    Paintings are mostly painted on white birch panels that are custom cut. Then, they are taped off using special painters tape to produce the initial design. Then, a clear coat is added, followed by a layer of white primer. Then, I paint multiple layers of paint to produce vibrant and rich colors. Finally, the tape is carefully removed to reveal the natural wood grain underneath.
  • Are paintings made to order?
    Yes - If you are interested in a painting, we can discuss size, etc. Each painting is custom made.
