COMMISSIONS ARE CURRENTLY OPEN
AS OF OCTOBER 2026
I don't accept payment plans right now to protect myself and my clients' time. I collect a non-refundable 50% deposit before work begins, and the remaining 50% after you approve the watermarked final preview.
If you have to ask, the answer is probably no, but feel free to email me to discuss!
The short answer is that going back and forth with clients on multiple sketches takes a significant amount of time. Since I do this in my limited free time, it makes more sense to gather as many details as possible beforehand to avoid unnecessary rework. This is why I love working with other authors; we are excellent communicators!
Each commission includes one minor revision round, and I'm always happy to discuss changes if you feel I've misinterpreted the original commission brief.
In addition to the standard blank background I provide, some clients prefer to have a version of the artwork with a transparent background to make it easier to add the characters to their own graphics. I provide this free of charge, but I ask that you never place the artwork on a background made using generative AI.
Absolutely, but you must first pay the 100% commercial licensing fee.
I may occasionally post previous commissions to promote my services, but I always wait until the client has posted or otherwise "revealed" the art before doing so. I will also typically watermark the artwork and tag the commissioning client whenever possible.
