Comparing apples to pomegranates

Sometimes people think they can't afford my services, without ever asking my pricing.  For almost any effect you wish to achieve, there are multiple ways to do so, and the dollars are in the details.  I can paint an 8'x8' mural in a day, or I can paint it in a week...just depends on what you like, and how much detail you want to pay for.  Here's an example:
The artwork on my business card is a photo from a full-surround mural I painted in a baby girl's nursery that was to later become the mother's home office.  Animals like this are about $60 each in a mural project.

This artwork is from a mural painted across cabinet doors.  Animals painted with this level of detail are about $360 each in a mural project.  This section of cabinets took nearly as long as the entire room done in the simpler style! 

By the way, if you like this newest bit of art, check back next week to see if there's another installment in the long drawn-out saga of "Belle's Kitchen"...
