The artist receives paid breaks of 5–10 minutes every two hours and requires access to a restroom.

If demand is high and you would like the artist to stay longer, please check in during the final 30 minutes of the event. If availability allows, additional time may be added following the pricing listed above. The artist will make every effort to close the line so painting ends at the scheduled time.
