    You just gave away a ton of great advice. I'll have my dad share this link to 20K of his followers.

    Thank you for sharing your insights. I’ve just getting started with commissions and have no idea where to start. This was so helpful!

    Hi Melissa, thank you so much for sharing your process with us. I'm a huge fan of your work and I also paint, too. I'm from Trinidad and I do Caribbean neo pop art. It's really wonderful to see how another artist works and preps their canvases. Truly awesome. (And I make sure to ask for a deposit on paintings as well - actually learned the hard way, hahahaa!) Continue to inspire, Melissa, and thanks again! :-D

    Thankyou for this video , I am fairly new to commissioned paintings and how to present them to the client, I didn’t know where to start before this video .. I learned many helpful things.. thankyou ! the certificate of authenticity is a neat idea and great way to personalize your packaging for client

      Also, how do you start to get your collectors? Do you just put yourself out there with family and friends on FB? The ones that want art for free or $20 or $30..lol.. Im only using Instagram and I don’t have a real big following yet.

    • @Mfalconer
      @Mfalconer  Před 5 lety +2

      @@77deerose Yeah, definitely put yourself out there by consistently sharing your work on Instagram. The goal is to generate a solid body of work so that potential clients will know what to expect from you if they were to commission you.

    Thank you so much. I’m just starting out and this is so helpful. Can you do separate video on pricing? And can I steal your certificate of Authenticity idea? It’s so adorable lol. I collect dolls and they come w/ those also.

    Do you use tranfer paper or grids or just freehand throwing your lines on the canvas, the likeness is uncanny
