Work Terms

I'll create sketches and/or concepts for your approval, (with revisions made from your input until you are happy), before creating finished work. I'll provide finished artwork to you as digital files, optimized for your specific printing or web needs.

I use Guru's payment system for billing projects secured through this website. (However unlike overseas artists, I am not dependent upon Guru's payment conversion system for my livelihood...so I can offer other payment options if a long-term business relationship forms.)

I will do my best to make sure you get more than what you ask for.
