Questions
Can I send you my bottle caps?
Most likely, yes! While I greatly appreciate receiving donations of caps, I do need to ask the following questions first:
-
Are they in good condition (no rust)?
-
Are they mostly unique/craft caps?
If YES > please email me to arrange shipment.
If NO > thank you anyway, but I already have (too) many larger brewery caps (such as Coors Light, Budweiser, Molson etc.).
I wish I could take every single cap however my storage space is limited and I need to prioritize accepting unique caps at this time.
frequently asked questions
Where do you get your bottle caps from?
I was a bartender for many years, and all the while instead of tossing caps into the trash, I would save them. And save them... and save them. To the point where my detached garage was basically a bottle cap storage shed.
So, that's how my collection started over 18 years ago.
Fast forward to today -- I now have many local restaurants and bars who collect for me, along with friends, family, and neighbours.
I also receive an abundance of messages or comments from people world-wide who collect bottle caps and wish to donate them to me. This new development has been so incredibly amazing - it really helps add variety to my palette, plus its fun to see unique caps from breweries all over the world.
Do you take custom orders?
Yes....and no. It depends on the subject. I specialize in portraits of icons - this niche really means a lot to me in so many ways so I've decided to stick with it. I am however open to exploring some different subject matters if it excites me artistically.
Unfortunately this means I am not currently taking commissions of the following subjects:
• Family or self portraits
• Pets
• Small logos
Do you ship worldwide?
Yes! I have shipped pieces all over North America and Europe.
What methods of payment do you accept?
Canadian Clients: e-transfer, cheque, or PayPal.
​
US/EU/Other Clients: check, wire transfer, or PayPal.
What is your turnaround?
As of May 2025, my current turnaround on new commissions is around 12 months.
Do you offer payment plans?
Absolutely! I completely understand that a $9,000-$15,000+ mosaic is not in everyones budget - but everyone deserves to order cool art!! With the turnaround being roughly 12 months, this timeline allows clients to make monthly instalments towards their mosaic throughout the course of the year. No interest or any additional fee is applied. You decide how much you're comfortable paying monthly while you wait for your mosaic to be completed. Some clients pay $400/month, some $1,000/month. I am flexible and happy to work with clients to come up with a payment schedule that works best for you.
How do I place an order?
-
First things first, send me an email or fill out my contact form.
-
Describe what you are looking for: the subject, potential size (mosaics start at 48" x 42") or available wall space, and where you are located/where the mosaic will be shipped.
-
We will discuss the best design and size together to finalize the order.
-
You fill out the contract that I will provide.
-
Once the contract is signed, you will receive an invoice. I require a 30% retainer along with the signed contract to place your order in the commission queue.
-
When the signed contract and 30% retainer are received, your commission is officially in the queue!
