Have you ever wanted a piece of art that is made just for you? If so, this series of posts will help you to understand the process. Step 1: Choose to work with an artist who works in a style that you love. Do not ask an artist to work in the style of someone else. In doing so, you run the risk of being very unhappy with the finished piece.
