Step 1: Find Your Inspiration
Explore my portfolio and take note of the pieces that resonate with you. What draws you to them—the colors, the mood, the subject matter? Once you have a sense of what you love, reach out to me at cole@colezlata.com to begin the conversation.

Step 2: Share Your Vision
Tell me about your space and how you imagine living with your new artwork. We'll discuss important details such as size, color palette (including both your room colors and your personal favorites), subject matter, and the mood or feeling you want the painting to convey.

Step 3: Set the Budget and Payment Plan
We’ll establish a budget that fits your project. A non-refundable deposit is required to secure materials and begin work. Payment can be made in installments during the creation process, or you may opt to pay the remaining balance as a lump sum upon completion.

Step 4: Creation and Framing
Throughout the painting process, I’ll keep you updated with progress reports and high-quality images. After the piece is completed, it will require a few weeks to fully dry before being professionally framed.

Step 5: Delivery
Once the final payment is complete, your painting will be delivered—personally for large works in Northern California, or securely shipped elsewhere. Your new artwork will arrive ready to hang and ready to transform your space.
