Commissions

1. How much does it cost to Commission a Doll?

   There is a wide price range, depending on the amount of artistic work required.  Generally, commissions start at $300 and up for a straight face repaint.  Cost is added for resculpting, costuming , wigs or reroots and/or hair styling.  

2. Do you require a Downpayment?

   A 50% downpayment is required to start a commission.  Until the downpayment is received, other commissions may be taken creating a longer wait time.

3. Is my downpayment refundable?

   Because commissions are custom work, downpayments are non-refundable in the event of cancellation or non-payment within 30 days of completion.

4. How long does it take to complete a commission?

   Wait time varies by the scope of the project, but an accepted commission can usually be completed within two to three weeks.  A general time frame will be given at the time of scheduling.

5. Will you do a commission of a doll I see on your site or one I have seen on eBay?

   I create One of a Kind art dolls, so I will only do a doll once.  The only exceptions I might make is that I might create a celebrity as a different character, or create a doll using a different sculpt.  These are rare exceptions.  I have no interest in doing the same doll over and over.  I am not Mattel.  If you fall in love with a doll that you see on eBay you should try to win it at auction - please do not expect that you will be able to commission one later.  I seek to create One of a Kind dolls, in the interest of maximizing their value and collectibility, which I find is best for me as an artist and for you as a collector.
