Pricing: material + shipping + $50/h * expected hours of work. I will give you a total price upfront after we discuss what you want.
To commission me, email me at [email protected] with as much info as you currently have about
- What you want depicted – idea, subject, mood, theme
- Main & secondary colors – if you have preferences
- Art you like in general – 3-5 images
- It’s fine to list things that you don’t want the commissioned piece to look like. It’s still good to have a sense of your taste.
- Your budget – my hourly rate is fixed at $50/h, so if I think I can’t complete the commission without going over that, I won’t take it on.
For reference, the two large multipanel works below would both go for about $2500. ($250 + $250 + 40h * $50/h
)
By default the deposit is 10% upfront, non-refundable once I start.
- If, upon completion, you determine you don’t want the painting (perhaps because you want revisions that cannot be done in the allotted timeframe, and don’t want to pay for more time), I’ll keep the deposit and try to find another buyer.
- Finding another buyer is impossible with really specific projects like pet or human portraits, so the deposit is 50% for those.
- If I cancel for reasons on my end, you get the deposit back.
