Design service call

I'm a multidisciplinary artist, illustrator, and designer, with a passion for surface pattern design and animation. I've spent the last four decades building a creative toolset in nearly every medium and style imaginable. Now I'm putting all those years of creative growth into one highly focused service.

Design is a diverse and immensely creative profession, because every product needs just the right voice in order to stand out, and just the right designer to understand what those specific needs are. My vast artistic experience makes me uniquely positioned to build you that perfect aesthetic.

IMPORTANT - please leave your desired contact information in the notes upon checkout. Phone, email, zoom, etc. However you prefer to communicate.

CUSTOM SURFACE PATTERN DESIGN

design service includes three phases

- Creative consultation 

It's important in the beginning stages for us to understand one another's needs. I want to know all about you and the product or products you intend to showcase your patterns on. And you'll also want to know about me, your potential designer, and feel our creative visions are in alignment. Here we'll discuss color palettes, personal preferences, potential motifs, styles, tastes, etc. I want you to be absolutely sure we're right for one another. If either of us isn't completely comfortable working together I'll immediately refund your deposit - art can be very personal and subjective, so no hard feelings.

- Rough Drafts

Before we get to the fun stuff, it's important to discover what is not working, and to discuss how we can improve upon it. Remember, I'm here to help you solve your problem. The drafting phase should only take a handful of tries to get right, assuming we've down the work in the first phase of consultation. Here I'll present you with my interpretation of your vision, usually in the form of loosely developed motifs and a variety of color choices all at once. However, anything beyond three attempts will incur further fees as I'll discuss below. And any work done during this drafting phase will forfeit your $100 deposit.

- The Pattern

Here we'll work out the final surface pattern design. Similar to the last phase, I'll present you with up to two finished pattern repeats, and additional attempts will incur additional fees. But If we've made it this far, I'm certain this won't be a problem.

Each finalized pattern will include a vector file, working files, and any other files needed upon request (jpeg, png, pdf, etc.) Your deposit will be deducted from the final fee upon completion.

Fees include

$100 initial deposit (forfeited after project is confirmed) 

$275 per pattern

$50 for each additional rough or repeat

Thank you for considering me for you design needs. I'm grateful.

Cheers
