I have found with certain makers or artists it is best to not take them out of the box. They do what they do, and sell what they make. Others will take on commissions. Commissions require doing an item exactly the way you want it. That can be difficult for both parties. Some artists just can not get in to certain suject matter , and neither will be happy ( client or artist ) . Others have found it a challenge to take a commission. Some find an area where they excel and will stay close. With anything that is hand made, I think you have to know your artist. I will look at what is available and see if it fits my want, first and is it a good piece of art.Some subject matter I am not into so I will not use a certain maker if that is all they produce. Commissions are also usually more expensive unless the maker/artist has done a like project before .</p><p><br /></p><p>F/O[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
