Getting Started
How to work directly with Esther to design your custom art piece.
Esther is readily available to take your calls and discuss your ideas. While emails and texts are welcome, she prefers emails as they allow you to include images that represent a vision for the project.
When you reach out to Esther with your thoughts, she may ask a few key questions:
1. Is your piece intended for indoor or outdoor use? This helps determine the materials and finishing options. We specialize in custom steel, cast bronze, cast resin, and sculptures, I can also create various other pieces as well.
2. Would you like your piece to stand or hang? The only limit is your creativity—just let us know your preference!
3. What type of finish do you envision? Options include paint, powder coat, rust, or bare metal. If you are uncertain, don’t hesitate to ask for advice during your appointment.
4. What size do you have in mind for your piece? Be specific to ensure that it fits perfectly in the intended space.
5. If it's a hanging piece, what surface will it be mounted on? Ensure the wall can support it, as we wouldn’t want your beautiful sculpture to be compromised.
6. Will you need shipping, or will you be picking it up?
Once Esther has the answers to questions, she can prepare an invoice for you. A 50% deposit is required to begin production, which typically takes about two weeks, although expedited options are available for a small fee.
We handle packing and shipping in-house, or for larger sculptures, we collaborate with a professional crate builder.
You can also order in stock items online—simply add them to your cart, and they will be shipped once payment is complete.
For a truly unique experience, consider making an appointment to visit Esther's Gallery and Sculpture Walk, where you can explore an impressive display of wall art and sculptures. Witnessing the colors, textures, and quality in person can inspire your custom piece.
