Policies for Max Journ Art Studio

Thanks so much for supporting the arts!

Kindly understand that colors, vibrancy, paint quality etc may all appear different in reality than they do online since it may be affected by lighting during a photo shoot and/or the image quality of electronic devices.

Custom / Commissioned artwork

If you love my style, my art, what they say and how it's said in my own language of artistic expression but you would like a custom commissioned work, I offer free consultations to discuss artwork details and pricing. This could be by email and/or video call and is by appointment only. Some conditions for new commissioned work created for you is that:

  • It does not compromise my style and identity as an artist.
  • The new work will either be a numbered original reproduction of an existing work or it would result in a new original piece of art.
  • I must have 100% trust and control over the completed outcome of the artwork, from you.
  • You must understand and accept that the artwork is not primarily about aesthetics but about the message.
  • Commissioned artwork is 50% non-refundable.
  • The artist maintains all rights to the work.

Some examples for commissioned work:

Create a new work:
You may have a concept that you would like to be expressed in my method and you know the wall space that it would be displayed. This is an example of a commission resulting in a new original piece of art. A free consultation would cover pricing based on size, time, labor, materials and originality.

Change the size:
You love, love a piece of artwork but would like to have it hand painted in a much larger or smaller scale.

Change the colors:
You would like a piece of existing artwork re-created in black and white or other colors provided that the changes do not contradict with the concept of the original artwork.
