How long have you been collaging art?

Wandering the desert, searching for my soul with a camera and a computer, I found my artistic style of creating digital collage art just over a decade ago. I've been crafting digital collage art since 2008, with my art portfolio titled "The Desert Abstraction. Project," and professionally selling limited edition prints since 2010. However, I was a completely different person back then, without a clear life path or a proper understanding of anything metaphysical. A few years and emotional breakdowns later, I began to meditate regularly with binaural beats and soon discovered new psychological depths and a greater context for making spiritually inspired art. More recently, in 2021, I began exploring Custom Collage Art for friends and family and began fine-tuning the business details to provide the best quality of service to others. I now serve clients empathically customized family photo nostalgia artfully collaged on high-quality canvas.

How long does a Custom Collage take to produce?

All Custom Collage projects, excluding printing and shipping time, are completed in one week, beginning Monday, with your final Custom Collage design presented by Sunday.

Normally, please allow 1-2 weeks for printing plus 1 week for delivery. Due to possible supply chain and other issues, I cannot fully guarantee that exact time, though prints typically arrive within two to three weeks after project completion or print(s) ordered.

How dose the sorting process work?

Submit 5-55 photos, pictures, or other visual clippings within your project's theme. Elements and details from your original images will be used as needed for the final artistic concept, with not all originals necessarily used. Please specify any specifics from your submissions that you want to be emphasized so they remain included and prominent.

How do I submit my photos?

Option 1- Send your digital image files using the Dropbox link emailed to you. Click "Join Folder" and quickly start a free account, then add your image files by simply clicking "Upload."

Option 2- Send your physical images by postal mail. I will email you the street address to send them and mail them back when finished.

Option 3- Image Scanning In-Person. Please coordinate with me by email the best time to schedule a 20min appointment: Mon-Fri. 12-5 pm. I will email or text you my exact address on the Northwest side of Tucson, near Thornydale and Cortaro Rd.

Please send your digital files or mail your physical images to be received by the date you selected so I may complete your Custom Collage design by the following Sunday.

Please remember that the better images and image quality you provide, the better your Custom Collage will be. I'd prefer not to accept smaller digital photo submissions than 1 megabyte to maintain a high-quality standard within the final print.

How are the photos returned to me?

Option 2- Send your physical images by postal mail. I will email you the street address to send them and mail them back when finished.

Are any of my photos digitally enhanced?

All photos are digitally enhanced only as needed for the final Custom Collage to be free of dust, scratches, or other unwanted blemishes and are not necessarily saved individually.

How many choices will I be able to see before approving my order?

Once I've established how to composite your pictures conceptually, I will email you to verify the general direction of your final image and get your feedback before moving on to complete it. At your request, I can connect with you a few more times throughout the week, making up to three additional alterations to your design's direction or specific details. So you can be sure your Custom Collage will be customized right for you.

Do you have any restrictions on Custom Collage Themes?

I (the artist) reserve the right to decline to create any design that goes outside my moral compass or for any possible reason, in which case, if not mentioned here, all charges will be refunded. Please know I will not create designs in the following themes or primary contexts: identity politics and politics of any kind, religion, military and law enforcement, criminal activity, or business marketing and advertisements. With all respect, most anything else is open to your request. If you have any questions regarding a concept you’d like to have illustrated, please contact me.

Will I be able to see a sample of my final Custom Collage before I place my order?

Of course, you can. All Custom Collage projects, excluding printing and shipping time, are completed in one week, beginning Monday, with your final Custom Collage design presented by Sunday. I will email you a screen-sized image file of your final design by Sunday evening. It would help if you viewed your Custom Collage digitally before placing an order for any prints produced. You can always order prints at any time.

What is your refund policy?

Satisfaction Guaranteed: full refund, up to one year, plus lifetime exchange for any same size, non-custom collage print; excludes shipping, booking, and scanning charges. I will replace any damaged item if it is returned within six weeks from the original purchase. I guarantee you will love your Custom Collage Art Prints and cherish them for many years, knowing you own something personally nostalgic, extraordinary, and rare.

Booking and scanning charges are nonrefundable. Though you are welcome to reschedule at no additional cost, I only ask that you give at least a 24-hour notice.

Immediately upon receiving their return, I will send a replacement item or issue a credit card refund. Customers must pay any shipping charges necessary to return their item(s). However, in the case of all exchanges, there will be no additional shipping charge for the customer's new item to arrive.
