What is a commission?
A commission is a custom artwork you hire me to make just for you!
What do I get out of it?
You get a spot in your production cycle all your own. We will complete a sketch or two and get your OK before moving on to a final coloring process.
At the end of the process you end up with the original hand-drawn piece of art featuring your unique concept. In many cases you can also order prints at a discounted rate if desired as well. The best part is we produce art in standard sizes ready for off-the-shelf frames!
All matted art with certificate of authenticity.
(Artist reserves all rights, unless negotiated as part of the commission)
What should I commission?
Don’t see your favorite animal represented?
The coloration on that dog is not quite the same as your favorite pet?
Need something that more closely complements your existing decor?
Want to get someone a unique gift?
These are all great reasons to get a commission!
How much does a commission Cost?
Well, since we are talking about a unique piece of art, prices are also somewhat unique to each piece. The following are general guidelines, final prices will be set before any work begins.
Factors that influence price:
- Medium (What it is drawn in)
- Size of the final art
- Number of subjects in a piece
- Complicated items/backgrounds
The starting prices below are based on one character and one item. The more complex the piece requested, the more the final piece will cost.
