I. PAYMENT
• All payments will be taken in full before any work is started in USD via PayPal Invoice or Ko-fi. (Some Character Design/Concepts & some complex Illustrations are an exception - payment happens after the loose concept sketch to figure out the complexity of the piece.)• You may ask for a quotation for your project at any time and is valid for 60 days, or until the price list changes, or until the commission idea is modified. Receiving a quote does not guarantee acceptance.• Payment plans are available only at my discretion and will be established on a case-by-case basis.II. REFUNDS
• Partial refunds are proportional to the amount of work completed.• You may receive a full refund on a commission if no work has been started yet.• Once the colouring stage has been started you may not receive a refund.• No refunds for "Sketch" commission types, this includes "Coloured Sketch", "Cutesy Sketches" and "Speedpaint".• Canceling of the commission on my side after payment will result in a refund according to the stage and complexity of the work already done.III. SAFE FOR WORK
• My artwork is SFW (Safe For Work). This means anything suggestive, pornographic in nature or any levels of nudity will NOT be drawn, so do NOT commission me if this is what you are wanting. You will be declined immediately. This includes reference pictures given to me of your character or for the commission in any way.• I will NOT draw extreme gore. I will NOT draw anything that promotes discrimination.

IV. COPYRIGHT & USAGE
• For most commission types, I will send you at least two versions of the final artwork: a full resolution PNG with my signature, for your personal use (print, wallpaper...) and a compressed, watermarked JPEG version for sharing. If you decide to share the artwork (on social media, with your friends...), you must only share the compressed watermarked version, with proper credit. Do not claim it as your own creation.• I retain full copyright ownership of the commissioned artwork. I reserve the right to post any stages of the artwork and use it for commercial purposes. You may request to remain anonymous on uploaded artwork.• The commissioned artwork may be used for PERSONAL / NON PROFIT use only and may NOT be used for commercial use. You may NOT involve my artwork in any blockchain-related technology, this includes but not limited to NFTs, cryptocurrency, artificial intelligence.• Private commissions may be discussed. I will not post your artwork on my social medias or portfolio. This will include a 50% or more Privacy Fee of the total commission
price.V. NO ALTERATIONS
• You may crop, rotate, mirror, or resize the completed artwork; such as to fit the dimensions of a banner or icon; and other non-commercial graphics.• You may NOT edit the artwork itself without my permission. You may NOT remove/alter my signature from the artwork.VI. TERMINATION
• I reserve the right to refuse any commission request, with or without reason.• I reserve the right to cancel any in-progress commission at any time, without explanation for any reason - Rude Behaviour, Poor Communication, Harassment, Health Issues, Burnout, Etc.. If I cancel the commission, a partial refund may be issued depending on the progress already made.

VII. PROCESS & COMMUNICATION
• For most commissions I will send a concept sketch/sketches for approval, this can be quite rough at times. This is where you will have the opportunity to request revisions, within reason. Please note this process can vary on each commission.• Additional work beyond the initial project scope may be declined or charged separately.• However, I will correct any mistakes I made at no additional fee at any stage of the commission process (for example, if I miss something clearly in the reference or stated).• For "Sketch" & "Speedpaint" commission types you generally will not receive WIPs, updates or approval stage especially as these are usually full creative freedom commissions with fast workflow.• Turnaround time will vary in commission type and I am probably juggling more than one project at a time. Please allow for up to 1-3 months from payment. I will notify you if I have any reason to believe it will take longer. Please respect that I work on commissions at my own pace, and free to work on other projects at the same time, personal or not.• If a deadline is desired, it must be discussed before pricing and it may affect the price or be declined. If we do agree on a deadline you must be reactive when I send updates.• Note that I tend to work in desaturated colours and will correct this later in the my workflow. Your character may be changed in small ways to fit my art style depending on provided references. Bear in mind that colours will be influenced by environmental lighting.GOOD TO KNOW
Prices are based on rendering quality and complexity of both the character/s & background. Examples of what I may consider complex - dependent on the character & commission type:
• Character complexity (Feathers, Wings, Certain types/quantity of scales, Certain types of horns, Elaborate spikes/adornments, Complex markings & colours...)
• Composition (Difficult poses, Camera angle, Perspective, Lighting...)
• Amount of background elements & complexity
• • •
Complexity fees are very dependent on each character & commission type and varies. I make the decision with my experiences in mind of how much more time it may take me. A simple commission may be charged lower than the base price, but more complexity will result in a higher price.
I may lower prices for very unfamiliar subjects.I generally won't draw oversaturated or cartoony characters (I will desaturate them and draw them in a more realistic approach fitting my style).I will do my best to respond to every request, on the rare chance I don't, your commission may not have been for me but you're completely welcome to send me a gentle reminder in case I missed you.

NOTES:
I changed Coloured Sketches with backgrounds into Speedpaints not only to make it more simple but I was tired of the limit of it being a “coloured sketch”. So now it’s an art piece that “Shares the ambition of an illustration but greatly reduced rendering time & full creative freedom to stay low cost.” I can just do what feels right! These will always be done within just a handful of hours.Thankyou for the support & entrusting me with your characters!

ABOUT

I'm a self-taught digital artist from Australia who mostly focuses on dragons, however I love to draw all sorts of animals and creatures. I'm very passionate about and love animals (especially lizards, crocodiles, cats, spiders & sharks), nature, dinosaurs, natural history, books and of course dragons and more!
My mind is always in too many places at once and dreaming of different worlds. I love fantasy and world building and I know I'm lucky to have my art apart of it, watching my characters and worlds come to life. I spend a lot of my time working on my personal ocs and worldbuilding.I've only recently started posting and branching out onto platforms so thank you everyone for the support and kind words thus far, I appreciate you all! So due to this I'm still catching up on posting and I'm quite shy.ART INFO
My art journey only really started in 2021 when I tried Digital and did it little bits on and off after that, then really only picking it back up late 2025.
I'm purely self taught and enjoy art as a hobby. I work in Photoshop with a Wacom Cintiq 16.
