Q&A
-
1. 🎨 HOW DOES THE COMMISSION PROCESS WORK?
"Simple and collaborative. You share your vision, I send a custom quote within 24 hours. Once you approve, a 70% deposit secures your spot. I create, you review, we refine together. Final payment only after you love it."
-
2. 💰 WHAT IF I DON'T LIKE THE RESULT?
"Your happiness is my priority. Every commission includes revision rounds so we can refine the design together before final delivery. You won't pay the remaining balance until the piece meets your expectations."
-
3. ⏱️ HOW LONG WILL MY PROJECT TAKE?
"Timelines depend on the piece:
Jersey & apparel design: 1-2 weeks / Digital bike illustrations: 1-2 weeks /Original wood & canvas art: 3-6 weeks
Rush delivery available. I'll always give you an honest timeline upfront—no surprises."
-
4. 🌎 DO YOU SHIP INTERNATIONALLY?
"Yes! Original pieces ship worldwide. Shipping costs are not included in your quote — they're calculated separately based on your location and piece size. What I always guarantee: secure packaging and full tracking so your art arrives safely, wherever you are."
-
5. 🤝 IS EVERYTHING REALLY MADE BY YOU?
"Every design, illustration, and original piece is created personally by me — no outsourcing, no shortcuts. I occasionally use AI only for mockup visualization, so you can better picture your commission before it's made. The art itself is always 100% human-made, by a cyclist who loves this craft."
-
6. 🚀 HOW DO I GET STARTED?
"Easy! Fill out the commission form or send me a message with your idea — a photo, a description, or even a rough concept is enough to begin. From there, we schedule a 30 to 60-minute call where we talk about your vision, what you want to capture, and how to bring it to life. No pressure, just a real conversation about your art."
