• Where are you from?

I am originally from Jordan, pursuing my schooling and career in Canada for the last 6 years. To know more about me please check out my biography section.

 

  • Can I use your art on my webpage?

Yes you can as long as you ask me for permission. Check my contact section for my email. There are some exceptions:

-Commissioned art doesn’t belong to me. You must contact the owner for permission.

-You are not by any means to do any changes to the art. Like resizing or cutting it into a thumbnail.

-Don’t link directly to my website. I will be able to send you a copy by email.

-You must add “copyrighted by Hala Zabaneh” anywhere you use my art.

 

  • Can I purchase your art online?

As of now, I do not have an online store yet, for either original or print copies. But you are welcome to contact me, and we can do other arrangements.

 

  • Do you take commissions?

Yes, indeed I do. Contact me for the arrangements.

 

  • How much do I pay for commissions?

These are the set prices for the meantime (they are always in a subject of change).

- Negotiable for characters. (depending on the size of the drawing, and how many characters)

- $50 dollars to add a background.

- $50 for coloring by computer.

-$100 dollars for coloring by hand with watercolors, crayons, ink, or pencil crayons.

-Negotiable to own the original.

 

  • What are the tools of your trade?

I mostly use pencil for my drawings. The other mediums I use are watercolor, pencil crayons, charcoal, pastels, and oil pastels. As for digital means I use Adobe Photoshop, and Illustrator.

 

  • Did you make your whole website?

No, I only designed the header of the website, my friend Paul Gonzales created the rest of the interface.

 

  • How long does it take you to finish your works?

Depends on what medium I use, and how complex the idea is. It varies from 30 minutes to 40 hours or even longer. Usually my digital artwork takes me less time, than the ones I do by hand.

 

  • Do you have any tutorials?

Not as of yet, but you can request it by emailing me. I won’t promise anything because it is the end of my major at the university, and I am getting ready for potential jobs.

 

Please, contact me if you have anymore questions.
