grows. |

How
long before the commision work will
be completed?
It takes approximately 1-6 months. The
commissioner can work closely with the
artist by submitting photos, clear ideas,
size and etc. Or you can leave it to
the artists' imagination.
Will I have an idea how my piece will
look?
Of course!
You can be informed as often as you
like through photos and emails. The
creation is a partnership between Filippos
and you. |

Is
there insurance when the commission
work is shipped?
When the piece is ready to shipped,
the artist will oversee the packing
process personally using a reliable
cargo shipping company with world wide

by the shipping company.
The packing, shipping and insurance
fee will be added to the commission
work fee. |
