As with any career, being an artist comes with its own package of unique frustrations. For Ringelstetter, his biggest frustration is commission work. While he loves to create for his fans, he has a hard time with project like these because it seems that nine times out of ten, the client isn’t quite happy with the finished product, if they say anything about the piece at all.
Ringelstetter officially stopped taking on commission work about four years ago when he went fulltime with his art career. However, with the Forbidden Effect series he’ll be able to customize pieces in a way that he believes will please all of the involved parties. He hopes to be able to keep his style and integrate the client’s vision in the new line to come.
