FAQs
Find the answers to frequently asked questions…
Will you still teach a class, even if there’s only a few people?
Since I provide the art supplies and any needs for the class, there is a cost on my end as well, which in turn, requires me to have a “minimum” for each workshop. The minimum number of participants is determined by which workshop/class is being taught.
How far out should I order my custom illustration project?
Ideally, as soon as you’ve decided you’d like to move forward with a project! Send a contact email asap so that I can connect with you and understand your vision as accurately as possible. Your project matters to me, and I’m excited to work with you to create the perfect. Personalized illustration!
Do you ever host open studio days to the public?
My studio is located in my home, in Lake Elmo, Minnesota. It’s a busy, working studio where I paint watercolor, pack orders, and manufacture my prints, cards, and line of small paper goods. Because it’s located in my personal home, where me and my family live and exist, I do not hold “open studio” days. That being said, I’d love to connect with you, and discuss future projects by scheduling a time to meet at my home-studio, or at a local coffee shop/public space.
If I place an online order and want to pick it up locally, what do I do?
Online orders or commissions can be picked up from my in-home studio’s front porch. At check-out, an option for ‘Local Pick Up’ will be available. Once your online order is complete, I will contact you with further instructions.
Do you offer wholesale?
I do! I would love + be honored to be in your shop! You may order directly through me with smaller minimums + free local delivery (if available) or through my Faire site.
Do you share your business or manufacturing process information?
In building my small business, I’ve learned from my (many) mistakes, and wins! I truly feel what works for One Light Studio, may not work for you and your business.
When I create and manufacture my work, I do it in “small batches”. If or when I use a third-party vendor or print company, I am particular about their work practices and manufacturing process, which means that I sometimes pay higher prices for clean, well-produced products, which in turn is reflected in some of my product-pricing.
In order to protect my original work and studio-practices, I do not share my information.
