FAQ
-
What is the best way to describe visual artist Milla Petrova's art?
Milla Petrova’s art is a fusion of Soviet-era iconography and contemporary symbolic abstraction, in which the precision of light and the weight of history meet to reveal humanity and harmony.
-
What medium do you use?
I primarily paint with acrylics on canvas. Acrylics allow me to achieve both fine detail and vibrant color.
But I also work with watercolor or various pencil techniques on paper.
-
How long does a commission take?
On average, 3–6 weeks depending on size, complexity, and current workload. I’ll provide a timeline estimate when we confirm your project.
-
How much do commissioned artworks cost?
Pricing depends on size and complexity. Smaller pieces start at $500, with larger, more detailed works quoted individually. I’ll provide a full estimate before starting.
A 50% deposit is required to begin the project. The remaining 50% is due once the painting is finished and approved, before shipping.
-
Do you ship internationally?
Yes. Paintings are carefully packaged and shipped worldwide. Shipping costs and delivery times vary depending on the destination.
-
Do you create original artworks or also from photographs?
I offer both. Many clients send me photographs to transform into paintings, but I mostly build from an idea and a real story to give my art narrative tension, symbolism, and cultural resonance.
-
What kind of photos work best for commissions?
Clear, high-resolution images with good lighting give the best results. The more detail in your photo, the more I can bring it to life in the painting.
-
Can I choose the size of my painting?
Yes. I offer a range of standard canvas sizes, and I can also work on custom dimensions if requested.
-
How can I see progress on my commissioned artwork?
I’ll share progress photos with you during the painting process. If you’d like, we can also schedule brief Zoom reviews to ensure the direction feels right before I finalize the piece. Once the artwork is complete, no edits or changes are made, since each painting is a one-of-a-kind original.
