Terms Of Service

By ordering a commission, you (the client) acknowledge and accept my (the artist's) Terms of Service (ToS).
Commissions are a paid service provided by the artist, which results in the creation of a custom art piece.


General Policies

  • You must be at least 18 years old to order a commission.

  • Access to a contact method that can send and receive high-resolution images is required.

  • Intimate and adult-oriented commissions will require consent from all parties involved.

  • Clients are responsible for digital storage and back-up of their commissions.

  • I have the right to refuse - or cancel - a commission without stating a reason.


Payment and Pricing

  • A deposit of at least 50% of the quote is required to begin the commission.
    The final, finished piece will not be sent until the artist has been paid in full.

  • Payments are done through Paypal invoice only. Failure to pay the invoice within 14 days may result in cancellation of invoice and commission. Prices are in US Dollars (USD). Cryptocurrency will not be accepted.

  • Prices are subject to change at any time. Clients are not owed retroactive refunds due to price changes.
    Quotes are valid for 30 days, and pricing changes will not affect valid quotes.


Revisions, Refunds, and Cancellations

  • On more complex pieces, a Work In Progress (WIP) update will be sent once the draft sketch is complete. Progress will be paused until the client states no changes needed. Revisions are given at the artist's discretion.
    Significant revisions after the WIP has been approved will require payment for additional labor.

  • Completed commissions are non-refundable. Full refunds are given if no work has been done.
    Partial refunds are based on amount of labor already given. Payment processing fees may apply.

  • The artist may use elements of a cancelled piece in future works. Properties of the client(s) will be removed.

  • The artist retains all rights to the commissioned artwork.

  • Intent to use the artwork for commercial purposes must be disclosed before a quote is given.

  • Unless written permission is granted, clients may only use artwork for non-commercial purposes.

  • The artist does not permit the use of their images for training generative "AI art" or similar programs, nor does the artist consent to the uploading of their works into Machine Learning datasets or sites that use it.

  • The artist does not permit association of Non-Fungible Tokens, blockchain, or cryptocurrency to their works.


Privacy Policy

  • The artist will never sell client data or use a client's private information for personal gain.
    Private (un-published) commissions and/or anonymity are available at the client's request.
