Method & steps
Clear, personal and with intermediate alignment.
Your story is the focus; I translate it into a timeless work of art.
The process is clear, personal and with intermediate coordination. Your story is central and is translated into a timeless work of art.
We start with your idea. What exactly do you want created? This can range from a commissioned portrait, an animal, religious art in a modern style, to a thematic work for an organization.
You share your personal story and, if possible, provide 1 to 3 reference photos (preferably sharp and well-exposed).
Based on this I make a first sketch on paper. You receive an update and can still make short adjustments. At the same time, I maintain sufficient creative freedom so that the result remains an authentic ArtYvesFact work.
After approval of the sketch, I further detail the artwork with fineliners, pencil and ink. If appropriate, accents are added with gold paint.
During this process, you will receive interim updates so that you always have a view of the progress.
Each work is given the time it deserves - no mass production, but pure craft.
The artwork is carefully finished, fixed if necessary and personally signed.
You will receive photos of the final result.
Upon completion, the last practical matters are taken care of, such as the balance and shipping or delivery.
The work is safely packaged and ready to be given a unique place in your interior or exhibition.
Price & payment
The price depends on format, technique (fineliners, pencil & ink, gold paint) and complexity. You will always get a clear proposal with fair price.
Yes. Upon agreement, you pay a deposit to schedule your spot. The remaining amount will follow upon completion.
Still to be filled in...
Sure. For multiple or larger works, I provide a custom quote. Transparent, with no surprises.
Send in your idea. I think along from craft and budget.
Delivery time & shipping
It depends on format, technique and queue. Craft takes time. We agree together on a realistic timing at the start.
Yes. I pack each work securely (protective cardboard + foil) and ship with care.
Also possible. ArtYvesFact already has international experience - think expo participation in Germany.
Whenever possible. You will receive a shipping confirmation once your artwork is on its way.

I use reference photos only for the creation process. Publication is not done without consultation.

I think with you and make an appropriate licensing offer.

Maintenance & preservation
You want your handmade drawing to last for generations. This is how you keep her in tip-top shape:
- Frame the work with acid-free passe-partout; preferably choose UV-resistant glass.
- Avoid direct sunlight, humid areas and extreme heat.
- Dust with a soft, dry cloth (no water or detergent).
- Store loose works flat and dry, in a folder or tube with protective sheets.
- Gold paint accents? Those stay beautiful if you don’t touch them and keep them behind glass.
A work of art is more than decoration. It is your personal story, craftily translated with pencil & ink, fineliners and gold paint. Fancy a unique artwork gift or something beautiful for yourself? Ask for a quote.
