Description

Cutoff for Christmas orders is December 3rd.

Our staff artists will customize a mug in the genre you select from the sample options below.  This customization is an artist’s interpretation of the photo(s) you send.  These are not a computer generated images, they are hand-sketched then hand-glazed in a detailed animation.

Once we receive your order, we will email the address you give at checkout, asking you to reply to us with photos of the pet.  Turnaround time for these orders is 3 weeks from the day we receive the photos from you.  We will email the address you give at checkout, to notify you that the piece is ready for pickup, in our studio.  Please read our note below about shipping these items.

Design choices include:

1. Monet, 16oz:  $63 – Mug shown in photo will be used to create your pet’s image in a style that leans towards Impressionism with it’s use of color, and an influence of watercolor.  There will be small, visible brushstrokes that offer the bare impression of form, unblended color and an emphasis on the exaggeration of tone in depicting the animal’s features. Texture added to enhance features
2. Warhol, 16 oz:  $68 – Mug style shown in photo will be used to create your pet’s image in a genre that is a contemporary nod to the father of pop-art, this design is done in a single color group with multiple shades to illustrate features.  Texture and dimension is added with dyed clay, to exaggerate features further.  Such a fun and unique option.
3. Petite, 12oz:  $55 – Mug shown in photo will be used to paint your pet’s image in a genre that is an interpretive illustration balancing traditional portrait and animation.  On a smaller mug, the image is slightly smaller than the artwork you will see on the larger mug options.  This is a sweet design.

SHIPPING CUSTOM ORDERS:   Due to the breakable nature of this product and the size of package necessary to provide ample packaging, shipping is an additional charge of $20 per mug.  This is a set price from our parcel carriers.  Since we cannot predict the cost to ship elsewhere in the country, we only ship to addresses within the state of Ohio.

PLEASE NOTE:  A commissioned piece of artwork commands the utmost level of artistic ability, attention to detail, focus and time.  These artists are paid by the hour for their talent and work, and there is the usual cost of bisque, glaze, and firing.  Our prices reflect those collective aspects.  There are no discounts on custom made items and we do not allow refunds on this selection either.
