Watchers

deviantID

My name's Lorina and I'm a Christian, wife, and artist.
I like to experiment with new styles so I never have one recognizable style.

I'm trying to develop a stronger portfolio and just to generally improve and become more creative. So if you'd like to help me, please consider hiring me!
  • Mood: Eager
Works that I offer.

— Sketches: These are the cheapest and can go as low as $5 depending on the subject and detail of the request. These are done with pencil or on the computer. They may be colored or left black and white.

— Line Art: Nice, clean line art. No color. I can do this with pen on paper or on the computer. Normally it's in black but you can request a different color of you want.

— Color: Full color, one color shading, a hint of color. Colored line art or colored with depth. Whatever you want done for your drawing, just let me know. Or you can trust me to color as I see fit according to the style I'm working with. I only do this on the computer.

— Black&White: Just as it states, black and white work. It can either be line art with grey scale shading or it could be a drawing completed in only black and white. I only do this on the computer.

— Portraits: I only do head shots to bust shots for portraits. I offer digital drawings. If you want a portrait in pencil, you will have to ask me about it and we'll have to go over size, pricing, and shipment.

— Tattoo Designs: I take these very seriously since this will be on your body. Depending on the design, will depend on how long I'll be able to finish it. Only because I want it to look as good as I can make it. If it's a simple design it might only take me a few days or a week. If it's a full sleeve, it could take me a month or two. It all varies, especially on the style and if it's going to be colored. As much as I take this seriously, I also take the price seriously. Most of my illustration work is below the normal rate, but tattoo designs will be more costly.

— Pixel Work: I can make dolls, items, pets, etc. in a clean pixelated style. I don't prefer to do backgrounds but go ahead and ask anyways. I might accept depending on what it is.

— Personal Cards: If there's a special date coming up like an Anniversary, Birthday, Valentines, Christmas, I can make you a personal card to send to that special person. I can also make Get Well Soon Cards, or even random ones like an inside joke between you and a friend.

*If there's something here that I don't offer. Send me an e-mail because I may know someone who can help with your request.

*I also know a graphic designer who makes ads, banners, flyers, logos, and business packages (cards, letterheads, etc.) and I know a web designer who codes and does banners.

_________________________________________________

How to commission me.

— Send me an e-mail at LorinaMV@gmail.com requesting to commission me along with all the information of your request. Such as a sketch, line art, full color, or in pixels, or a tattoo design, a character, a portrait, etc. Also send me pictures for reference if you have any. You can even send me a wall of text and pictures! The more I know, the better.

— After that, I may ask you a few questions about the detail/pictures and once everything is discussed I will send you a quote of how much it will cost.

*I have the right to reject any requests. I may be too busy, or I may feel unfit for the project, or anything else that may be personal, but don't hesitate to send me a request anyways! I enjoy challenges and I enjoy making people happy if I'm able to :]

*If the reason of rejection is due to my schedule being too busy, you may inform me that you want to be on my Waiting List for $10 in order to be fitted in my schedule first when I'm open again. If you do not do this, it's first come, first served.

*If you want your project done to be a priority and set on a tighter deadline let me know, but I may have to charge extra if I'm going to put aside my other projects and work within a shorter time span. Depending on the difficulty and will depend on the amount of the extra charge.

_________________________________________________

Prices.

— Prices will depend on the request. E-mail me to ask me for a quote on what you want.

_________________________________________________

Payment.

— Payment is through PayPal only.

— PayPal takes out a small percentage from the transfer so you will have to pay a dollar or a few dollars more depending on the price. For example, for me to be paid a full $20, you will have to send $20.91. For me to be paid a $100, you will have to send $103.30. It's not a big amount as you can see.

_________________________________________________

How the transaction works.

— After I review all the information and we discuss all the details, I'll give you a quote as to how much your request will cost and a date that I would like to have your request finished and sent to you by, or you can give me a deadline. We might have to work around my schedule but we'll go over it. A due date is a must so I can stay organized and efficient! Don't tell me, "Whenever you're able to." As much as I appreciate it, I don't want to slack on anyone's requests.

*Be mindful that larger files are more expensive. So if you want anything printed out, let me know as that will help determine the price.

— If you choose to accept, I will give you the exact amount that must be paid as a deposit. I will not start on your drawing unless I see the transfer. I will send you the link where you can pay. *Once you send the deposit, that means you must abide by my terms. *If you cannot pay that day but you can pay it within a week, I'll keep you in my schedule. If you cannot pay it within a week, then you'll have to contact me another time when you're able to or you can choose to send me $10 to be on my Waiting List.

— I will e-mail you when I'm going to start on your request and send you my terms to remind you that you have three days, counting that very day and time, to cancel the commission and get a return on your deposit.

— A day or two before the due date, I'll send you an e-mail of a copy of the finished work in a reasonable, viewable size so you can look over it but it will have watermarks on it. I will ask you if you want any changes or if you want something small added on to it. At this point, I will not make any big changes unless you're willing to pay more with the last half of the payment.

— If you don't want any changes, you may send the rest of the payment that day or on the due date. If you do not pay after two days of the due date, I will e-mail you to remind you.

— If you do want changes, then I will make them as soon as possible and send it to you as close to the date as I can. If they are bigger changes, I will tell you how many days I will need and how much you have to pay for the extra work.

— When the last part of the payment goes through, I will send you the finished piece, full size, with no watermarks on it except for my signature and/or logo off to the side (I will not put it directly on a tattoo design). *You may need to give me a day or two if I'm busy. If I do not respond after two days, e-mail me to remind me that you haven't received your finished piece.

_________________________________________________

Canceling the commission.

— If you decide to cancel the commission, tell me as soon as possible! Time is precious!

— The day I start on your request, I will e-mail you to tell you. Then counting from that day and time, you will only have three days to cancel your commission and get your deposit back. This includes weekdays and weekends.

— If I accomplish a lot of work on your request within those three days (such as for a simple drawing or my only committed project), you will not get your deposit back but you will receive the unfinished drawing. I must be compensated for my work!

— You don't have to explain why you want to cancel if you don't want to. There's no pressure at all. I would just like to be informed as quickly as possible, so you can either get your money back, or I can concentrate on my other projects.

_________________________________________________

I have the right to use and display any and all of my work. I will use these works for my portfolio. You may request me to not display the art you've received from me online if I'm given a good reason (waiting to surprise someone with a drawing first, too personal, etc).

I will watermark anything that someone else could use as their own to make sure that it's original to you and to you only. However, there are some really good people at removing watermarks so I cannot by pass those people without completely damaging the look of the work.

I will not sell any of my commission work since it's a personal request and some people may own the characters I've drawn and I don't want anyone buying a portrait of someone else's grandma x]

I also have the right to change my terms at any time but I will go through any commissions with the same terms you agreed with at the time you might hire me. I will not change the terms for a customer that I'm currently working with but any new customer must agree to the new terms should there be any.

Thank you for taking time to reading my terms and conditions!
