Question 1

I'm interested in another service not shown on this website, but I saw it online. Is it still available?"

Accepted Answer

Contact Preference to inquire.  Some items are no longer available while others are considered on a case-by-case basis.

Question 2

Is this a walk-in business?

Accepted Answer

No.  It is completely virtual, but some product pick-ups are available in Rocky Mount, NC.

Question 3

I called the number and didn't get an answer. I'd like to speak to a live person, what should I do?"

Accepted Answer

Please leave a message or text to get a quick response by phone.

Question 4

Can I send you an image to draw on canvas?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely!  Preference loves when you come with ideas that matter to you most.  Please keep in mind that she may modify your inspiration image to prevent any copyright infringements or to ensure that it is suitable for your intended audience.

Question 5

Do you have instructions for the paint party kits?

Accepted Answer

Depending on the kit, a color-mixing guide or suggestions may be included.  The purchase of a paint party kit without guidance suggests that you are prepared to paint on your own without help.  However, there are some video tutorials on the Art by Preference Facebook page, along with the range of YouTube videos by others online.  Check the Resources page of this website for useful tips as they are added.

Question 6

How do I store my leftover paint?

Accepted Answer

Spray it with water before re-capping and wrap with saran wrap until ready to use again.  If you don't use it for more than a week, check back and mist it again for safe measure.

Question 7

Do you have to buy a kit to attend a public virtual paint party?  Why?

Accepted Answer

Yes, and you must be in the contiguous United States in order for your kit to ship in time.  When Art by Preference provides supplies, it simplifies the process, ensuring that you have the right materials and are fully prepared for the event.

Question 8

Is there an option to do a private virtual party where I buy my own supplies?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely.  Please locate the fee for your group (based on the number of attendees) on the Virtual Party page. Please note that if you decide to provide your own materials, you are taking responsibility for purchasing the right materials.  There is a list of the necessary supplies provided on this website.

Question 9

Does Art by Preference offer public virtual paint parties that don't require the purchase of a kit?

Does Art by Preference guide in-person paint parties?
