Do you want free work? It's an option!
4 years ago
Hey all,
As I'm coming to the end of my workload on both free and commissioned work, I want to take the time to reach out to you. I know there aren't many folks who will see this, but each one of you is immensely important to the growth of this business.
I'm working on my last order of 4 FFA (free for advertising) prints and I need to keep posting in order to draw in more clientele. So, if you or anyone you know would be interested in ordering one or more prints, please don't hesitate to get in touch!
I have a couple of options available to you right now that I'd be glad to talk with you on regarding your work.
The first is the regular commissioned work.
There's nothing special here, and no bait and switch tactics. I'll work with you and keep you posted every step of the way as I do with all of my customers, because I believe that you deserve honesty and transparency from the work that I'm doing.
I have a new option that I'm considering offering on a regular basis. For a bit more than regular price on an order, I am willing to paint certain pieces (examples of which--at the time of this posting--you'll see here shortly) They're done with a very limited palette of colors that are alcohol based and cannot easily be mixed so I would need to discuss at length the pros and cons of this option before proceeding.
For now the color option is limited to special orders and requests only, but if I get enough demand for it, I will offer it on a more regular basis.
My second option is for those who would like, but cannot afford the work that I do.
As I'm in need of advertising--and the only way that I can advertise is to keep posting on a semi regular basis--I am willing to offer free work (I'll even pay for shipping) in exchange for your permission to post an image of the finished piece in my gallery. All of the images that you see in my gallery (except one which the artist agreed to let me keep due to quality issues) are of prints that have been sent to the artist or commissioner. A great many of them were in fact, free work.
Most people will say that if it's free it's not the best it could be, but I treat all of the work that I do with the most respect, care, and pride that I can manage. When looking through my gallery, ask yourself what quality you can expect, if you can't tell the difference between my paid work and what I'm doing for free, without reading the description.
My day job is manufacturing aeronautics, marine grade parts to exacting specifications, and I bring that level of dedication and attention to detail to the work that I do for you. But I digress.
If you, or someone you know would like to have a piece of their art, whether they drew it themselves or commissioned it, put into a medium that can be proudly displayed in any home, I strongly encourage you to get in touch! I'm always willing to consider either option I mentioned above, and will work with you to ensure you get the best quality I can provide.
Simply put, I do my best to go above and beyond, because if I'm not happy with my work, I know you won't be either.
So, as always, thank you for taking the time to read this, and I hope to hear from you soon!
Casey.

I might take you up on this offer. I’d have to think about what would make a good print.

OP
I'm certainly willing to work with you on that!


When I’m more free this weekend I’ll look into it further.
