    Some pointers that I have to give you would be, that you first need to find out what the customer needs and wants as far as art is concerned. Secondly, you ask a lot of questions and try to carry on a banter with the customer so that you can get an idea as to what the customer's surroundings are like where the art might be eventually hung or placed. The art might be placed in a home or an office of some kind.
