“Alive Again” NFT (original version) sold this past weekend on Open Sea!!
I am incredibly grateful that in joining the NFT world, many new collectors have been introduced to my work! If you don’t know much about NFT’s yet, look into what they are, read about them, listen to podcasts, & get involved. It is still early. I remember when a friend of mine told me 8 years ago to get into crypto currency. If I would have the, we all know the result now. This is a platform that accepts Crypto (ETH & WETH) to purchase Non Fungible Tokens. They are an excellent investment and have been proven to gain substantial profit for collectors. The world is changing at a rapid speed, I am working tirelessly to adapt to see new opportunities with my art. I always say, “I didn’t come this far to only come this far”.
Be sure to check out the Rashelle Stetman Art collection with new collections dropping very soon! These are the most colorful versions of my art to ever be sold, and only on this platform! No prints or reproductions of these variations sold anywhere else!

FAQ
What is the Process of Commissioning a Custom Piece of Art?
Clients email me at rashellestetman@gmail.com with their Art Ideas. I ask that potential clients send photos of what they want me to reference. If the client does not have a specific photo they want me to reference, I ask the style/perspective image of what they are desiring in their custom piece.
Anything that can provide a better understanding of what their vision is helps me make sure I can be successful in brining that vision to life.
If it is a portrait, I ask that clients send several (clear & well lit) photos to provide me with and together we can select the one that will make the strongest drawing.
After selecting the photo reference or locking down the detail of the ideas/concepts behind the commissioned art, I will send clients a “Commission Proposal” that outlines all details of their custom project. (Medium, Quote, Size, Dates, Deadline, Payment Methods Accepted etc.)
This allows my clients to have a form to sign, then I sign agreeing to the terms of the project. This way there is no room for alterations or worry from my clients on if I will change the vision.
The most important part of the Commissioned Process is staying true to what my clients vision is. I will not stray away or alter the ideas that are important to you- that is my personal guarantee.

Hiring an Assistant
In the 8 years I have built and ran my business, Rashelle Stetman Art, I have taken on all jobs of what it entails to grow. Often times, that means teaching myself things I thought I would never know. For example, working the backend of a website, learning mathematical equations I thought I’d never need to know and so much more.
Why Hire an Assistant?
After several years, when you get to a place where you don’t have to take on all jobs- hiring an Assistant, is vital. If you have found yourself in a place financially where you can budget the extra spending, the return on investment is inevitable. Hire your assistant to do things that will bring you more income. Hire them to do things that you may not be good at or know how to do. Take advantage of the opportunity to use someone else’s brain instead of limiting the ideas within your business to your own.
In my opinion, this allows you the possibility of growing your business in ways you maybe hadn’t ever thought of. The saying “two heads are better than one” is the real deal. Whoever came up with that one, I owe a lot to.
Sometimes, when you have been a one man show for countless years, you think you know it all. Fact is- you don’t.
Make Art Not Stress
I’ve been reminded of this a time or two when I have made mistakes. I am not ashamed, but rather learned this lesson I needed to to get me to this point. You know only what you limit yourself to, and that is the cold, hard truth. The things you aren’t as strong at doing and/or take more time for you to achieve- those are the tasks I force myself to let go of, pass them off to my incredible assistant and get back to doing what I was made to do- create art.

After countless hours of attempting to take every viewer right into my studio and feel like you can smell the paint and hear the stroked of the pencil on paper. This is my world, and I wanted to invite you into it.
I owe a huge thank you to my Web Designer and Assistant, Miss Sydney Wallis. As another Fine Arts Graduate, I absolutely fell in love with her attention to detail & work ethic. I knew she would create something that reflects the work she has witnessed coming to life in the Rashelle Stetman Art studio.
I have heard this a lot…. “You are an Artist….so what’s it like to just paint all day?” It kills me inside, because if you know any Full-Time Artists, you know that we wear many hats in our business. From accounting, to ordering supplies, to fulfilling orders, to creating new products to buy it is constantly a work in progress. Sometimes, I won’t have the chance to draw or paint for two weeks on end because the business side of this career tends to take over.
I wanted this website to reflect the wide range of styles I work in, art services I provide, and products I sell. Beyond that, I wanted the site to express my personality and extreme dedication to my Artistic Career. Sydney went above and beyond to make sure this site gives you that “sneak peek” feel. Like you could get a sense of who I am, and what it is like to work with me through commissioning your own custom piece.
Please, feel free to explore, view the countless “behind the scenes” in the studio and the projects companies have hired me to create! I am so excited to be sharing all of it with you! It is an honor to work with so many amazing clients, companies and friends throughout the last 8 years. The best is yet to come!
