dabble into a lot of different kinds of art, which means I have a lot of
materials available to me to use.
First off, the Traditional mediums I'll work with--
Digital Media I work with paint tool sai, editing slightly in adobe photoshop elements 7, drawing with a bamboo tablet.
--You'll have to specify what kind of coloring you want if you care,
otherwise I'll color like the example posted in the comments.
Other
Types of Art
If you show me a specific style, I may draw in that style. However, it
depends on the style. For instance, I will not steal a specific artist's
style, but I will draw a style that is generalized, and used by many
many other artists (such as anime).
*If you ask for realism, I MUST have a photo reference! However, because this is a commission, you must gain permission from the taker of the photo for me to be able to recreate and sell it.
Also realize that realism pieces take a long time, and will be more
expensive, especially the larger and more complex they get.
Subjects I'll Draw
These are just examples, I'll draw almost anything not listed in the 'will not draw' section.
Subjects I Will Not Draw
**I
will however, draw female nudity. The point is that I don't want to
stare at a penis for who knows how long, trying to draw it.
***This
is subject to interpretation. I'm not extremely opposed to drawing
extreme violence, but it depends on the way that it is violent, and the
point behind it, whether I will accept or decline.
Other Information
All dry traditional pieces will be done on 9x12 inch, 60 lbs paper, unless requested otherwise.
All watercolor/paint traditional pieces will be done on 9x12 inch, cold press, 140 lbs paper, unless requested otherwise.
If requested a larger size, depending on how large, I may have to
raise the price to cover the cost of getting a larger piece of paper
(though not by much, just enough to buy the paper).
I also have 8x10,
80 lbs slightly-sepia-toned paper available, as well as various other
things, including pages from a yellowed book.
I do a WIDE variate of art. If you don't see anything listed here, just ASK me, and I'll tell you whether I can do it or not!
Also
note that I do not post a lot of art that I'm truly proud of on dA. dA
does not reflect my real skill level, since a lot of the art here is
old! Or unfinished sketches/ideas! It is an example of my progress,
since I'm experimenting all the time. If you go past, you can see even
on the same page, major progress within my art, especially when it comes
to the digital aspect. I also don't post some of my "artisan crafts" on
dA either, such as my sewing and embroidery, if you haven't noticed.
Mixmedia
As
stated before, I'd go into a little more detail about mix media.
Basically, when it comes to the art I'll do, most of it'll be mixmedia
unless something specific is chosen without the option of mixmedia.
When I say mixmedia, I mean the combination of pen and pencil or
watercolor and india ink, so on and so forth. This is just a note saying
that. I also have access to a variety of other materials that I can
use, such as feathers, dried flowers, ribbon, fabric scraps, ripped aged
book pages, and so on.

Technical Aspects
I'll have you know that for a while now, I've been trying to
get commissions with no success, and I think that's because of a lot of
error on my part, and ignorance on how exactly to go about my task.
After thinking about it for a long time, I've figured out a much better
way to do things that will make any commissioner much happier with the
arrangement of things.
For starters, I will accept both US Dollars and dA Points, or a mixture of either!
If you don't know if it yet, there's a handy-dandy little point to
money calculator on dA, which I will definitely take advantage of! There
will be a link in the comments below to it, if you want to check it
out. I will accept money payments by check (mailed) or by PayPal.
I will accept the payment after I finish the final project, but before I
either mail or publicize it here, which brings me to another few
changes.
I will do this through dA, so that the commissioner is completely happy
with the final project. If they wish for any changes to be made, I will
do so at this stage, and send an update.
The cost of mailing will depend on where they live.
I will put the finished work on dA only if the commissioner wants me to
keep it there, and I will enable prints only if the commissioner is
fine with that, depending on what was commissioned.
Finally, all prices will be left up to the commissioner! They will
suggest a price to me, and I will either accept it, or refuse it, tell
you why I refuse it, what the amount should be, and why. Note that if
the commissioner suggests a price, and I accept it, they will have to
pay the full amount if they want their art. If the price suggested is
too high away from what I would have asked, then I'll suggest a lower
price. I would think the price range would be around 5-50 dollars,
depending on the intricacy, and the amount of time/materials I spend on
the commission. Could be lower, could be higher.
I wish to
do it this way, because I'm not experienced at setting prices, and
knowing worth, so thus I want those who will buy from me to decide and
give me a general outline of reasonable prices in their eyes.
With that said, if you're looking to commission, or you just got some questions, feel free to note me!
