Commission Agreement Form

Please Read Thoroughly

 

*NOTE - Please allow a full month for me to complete said art commission before needed. It may be done before that, I will contact you if it will be.

 

*NOTE - Please keep in mind that I will mostly do artwork of animals and wildlife. Only on rare occasions will I accept work for any other subject.

 

*NOTE - All my artwork is traditional and will be sent to you via mail. I will send just the artwork, no frame will be included with artwork.

​

*NOTE - When choosing oil as a Medium I only use canvas panels. For me it's easier to work on and easier to frame. If you would like me to use a traditional canvas please write that within the Medium option box. 

​

*NOTE - If you can not provide reference photos I do have a plethora of reference photos I can provide. 

​

WHAT YOU PROVIDE

What you will need to provide is as follows:

 

GIVING ARTISTIC LEAD- After description and/or images are provided. I ask of you to take my artistic opinion on how the final work shall be done into consideration. In the end it is your vision I am trying to achieve but as the artist I will consider composition, style, and lighting. All things that makes a final piece come together. 

 

KINDNESS- Please be kind and forgiving for I will not take all commissions that are asked of me. I have the freedom to refuse. Please be respectful and do not ask why I won't. I take commissions based on my interest in the subject and if I am available to do the artwork. Please, DO NOT take it personally.

​

WHAT I PROVIDE

what I provide is as follows:

​

PRELIMINARY PROOFS- I will provide small sketches, photoshop prelims and/or small watercolor proofs via pictures, for you to approve before I start the work. Just to make sure that the composition, color, lighting and everything is what you like.

​

How to pay is as follows:

​

If you wish to pay in full at first, you are free to do that or you can pay half now and then half later.

 

HALF DOWN, HALF LATER- I will disclose to you the full amount of the artwork once details of the commission have been discussed.  If you wish to pay half now and half later, an invoice will be sent to you for 50% of the full amount. You will be expected to pay this amount within 2 days. If you do not pay the invoice within 2 days, the invoice will be voided, and I WILL NOT do the commission.

Upon approval, the last invoice for the remaining 50% of the full amount will be sent to you. You will need to pay the invoice within 2 days. If not paid the invoice will void and you will not get the finished artwork from me. After the invoice has been paid you will receive a tracking number for your commission within 1-3 days’ time depending on holidays and weekends.
