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

[@queensaharaice7376]

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

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

Can you link the things you were talking about? Like, the certificate of authenticity, if it’s a template

[@Normairist]

Can you please make a video of drawing on the canvas and color selection

[@Thepotatomind]

Yes that is what I was hoping to see too! The strategy behind the painting! Hey Falconer, if you have shared such a video, will you share the link with us?

[@MrSimone0619]

You’re awesome!!

[@miguellopezshow]

Thank you so much for such informative video.

[@77deerose]

Thanks Melissa, You are awesome

[@77deerose]

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]

@@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.

[@fridaalbanese8810]

Wow your work is fantastic, how do you get from photo to lines on your canvas, do you use effects on the computer to get those lines?

[@lesleywillis3650]

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.

[@SpencerSinclair98]

Hey Melissa I love your channel and this video was super helpful! Do you offer refunds for commissions? (I’m asking as a fellow artist)

[@B.a.n_8080art]

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

[@SunGoddess45]

Thank you so much for this video. I love love your work. May i ask what size boxes do you use for each canvas? Also where do you order them from? Thank you in advance.

[@bigppenergy3763]

its kinda weird question but how much money u make from doing commissions a month or a year I would be so happy if you respond

[@ShubhamPatil-bv6mk]

[@rrr-do2gn]
