MEANING OUTLINE 

If you are happy with the final product Emma will write out a detailed breakdown of the meaning behind your piece. 

​

This is all based on your initial responses on the form so be as detailed as you can. The more the artist knows the more tailored it is to you. 

PRICING 

Prices for designs will vary depending on size and complexity. However, you can expect to pay between $100 - $1000 for a custom design.

 

The initial fee will need to be paid upfront and if alterations to the design are requested there may be additional costs.

My first ever commissioned Tā moko Piece. The client had a design her mother drew for her which I had as the base of the design. I adapted and added more meaning to it.
