2. Submit your story. Once I have received and read your
narrative, I reinterpret it in the form of an abstracted text
portrait. Content becomes slightly blurred and lines distorted

commission size and make payment through Paypal. I
then begin the word portrait. After you approve the
sketch, I work with you to put together a color base
palette. The modulation of these colors is based off of my
feel of the content. The way it makes me feel, how it
resonates with me, the audience.
