I love to travel. If you would like me to come to your store to do either a workshop on expressive painting or my spirit essence portraits, contact me and we will discuss the possibilities. I need a quiet space to be in with enough room for a chair for myself and the other person, a small table, and a CD player. If you are located in an area of the country that I would be flying into, the costs involved for me are hotel, airfare and car rental probably. Therefore, if there is another store or center near you that might also possibly be interested, that makes things easier. I will be happy to contact the other location to arrange the details. I ask that you create a sign up sheet and have folks
register and pay in advance.
There is a no-cancellation
policy. If someone can't make
their appt. I do the portrait
remotely. If it is a workshop,
they are entitled to either come to
my studio for a workshop or receive
credit in the form of
merchandise. You still receive
your end of the commission. I will provide you with flyers and text for your website or newsletter describing the events. I will
advertise the event on my website and in my newsletter. Both the workshops and portraits have been very enthusiastically received.
"When
we announced to our customers that
Melissa Harris would be visiting the
store the interest was very
high. We actually began taking
sign-ups months before the
event! Originally we booked
Melissa to come for 2 days which
were booked within weeks and Melissa
agreed to stay for a third day-
which of course booked up
immediately at which point a fourth
day was added! She was booked
solid for 4 days. Excitement
was high and the results exceeded
the expectations. My customers
were thrilled with Melissa and the
paintings they took home. We
enjoyed 4 days of her amazing talent
and beautiful presence. Six months
later people are still talking about
it and asking when she will return.
We
sell an enormous amount of Melissa's
work - posters, magnets, greeting
cards, journals and mousepads-her
work is inspiring, moving and so
beautiful. I know my customers
want to own just about anything she
creates."
