Please note that my art takes time, so I only take on a handful of projects at once. If I am not taking active commissions, you may join my newsletter to find out when I'll open commissions next. I also take on some special projects occasionally, so you may also reach out to me via Instagram. You can also send me an email at deanna@deannastover.com.

I review your request and follow up. If it seems like a good fit, this is where I'll provide a quote and expected time table.

I create your piece by hand.

Final payment is due before shipment.
