//. Process

✦ THE QUOTE ✦Once you filled the commission form, I will send you a quote according to your request. I will also give you an estimate schedule, to let you know when I should start working on your commission.Once the quote is agreed and returned signed to me, I will start working following the provided schedule, according to your deadline – if any – and my availability.

✦ THE PAYMENT ✦No upfront payment is required! The payment will be split according to the steps of creation: I will kindly send a PayPal request in between each creation task completion. I will move to the next creation task as soon as the payment is well received for the previous one, and so on until final.⚠ Important note: Make sure to select "Sending to a friend" when paying your PayPal invoice. No refunds will be eligible for my commissions, thus the PayPal Purchase Protection is useless. If you happen to select “Paying for an item or service”, I will have to charge you 5% of the total price to cover the fees I will be charged by PayPal.

✦ THE CREATION STEPS ✦For digital commissions, only low definition images at 28dpi will be shared during the following steps.
The final HD files at 300dpi will be sent after the last payment is received.-// Task 01, THE SKETCH:
· Researches + sketch > sending to the Client to validate the composition together.
· Sending PayPal invoice for task 01 completion.
· Moving to task 02 once payment and feedbacks are received.
-
// Task 02, THE CLEANING:
· Revising the sketch according to feedback > cleaning the lines > sending you the updated artwork
· Sending PayPal invoice for task 02 completion.
· Moving to task 03 once payment and new feedbacks are received.
-
// Task 03, THE FLAT COLORS:
· Revising the lines according to feedback > adding the colors > sending you the updated artwork
· Sending PayPal invoice for task 03 completion.
· Moving to final task once payment and new feedbacks are received.
-
// Task 04, THE RENDERING:

✦ THE DELIVERY ✦Once the last payment is received, I prepare a Google Drive folder with all the images from the creation steps. You will need to download the files quickly because after a month they will be purged!For digital commissions, I will provide a high definition .PNG file and a social media friendly file at 72dpi. By the way, my default painting canvas measures 4440x5550px at 300dpi, which is perfect to print up to 16.5 x 23.4 inches (40 x 60 cm). A layered PSD file can be sent on demand too if needed. Specific measures can also be requested up to your needs by leaving a note via the commission form!
-
For traditional commissions, I will protect the drawing with the greatest care and ship it to you flat in a strong cardboard envelope. For better protection, I can also favor sending the drawing in a tube according to your preference. In all cases, you will receive a tracking number to track your package.

//. Usage of the commission by the Client

By commissioning me, you agree:✦ Not to use the artwork for commercial purposes of any kind, including NFTs.
✦ Not to train any AI software or tool with the artwork.
✦ Not to share / upload the HD files on social media.

//. Usage of the commission by the Artist

Unless I receive your written disagreement, I may share the artwork on my socials (e.g. Twitter, Instagram...), of course only at a 72 dpi low definition and with a watermark. I may also share the process video on my YouTube channel to show the steps of creation.It is very important for me - as an independant artist - to share the artworks I create and their steps, as a testimony of a human made art. Yet of course, if you do not want me to share the artwork, for any reason, just drop me a note about it while filling the commission form, and I will respect your wish.In any case, I will never ever use your commission for commercial purposes. If I would happen to be willing to use it for such purposes, I would kindly contact you before anything to discuss the matter.
