How long does its take to do a commission?
The amount of hours depends on several variables, like the size and details of the artwork. This will be discussed with the artist. The timeframe from starting to completion depends on the artist's schedule and the finishes the client wishes for the art piece. Commissions can take a few weeks to a few months.
Can I get a Print as a commission?
Yes. The client can choose to purchase a print rather then the original. The artist will retain all rights to sell the original and unlimited amount of prints.
