This is a reference journal for all of my commission information. 

General Information

  • I reserve the right to display all finished commissions in my online portfolio. (I may make an exception if we both initially agree to keep the work offline for the sake of privacy, i.e. for portraits of children.) I also reserve the right to decline a commission request for any reason, and the right to adjust the price of a commission (before invoicing) if I deem it necessary.

  • If for any reason I cannot complete your commission after you've paid, you will receive a full refund, regardless of how much work I've already done. I will also honor any requests for a full refund of your deposit/payment at any time during the commission waiting period, as long as I have not begun any work beyond a basic sketch.

  • I can only be paid via paypal.
  • Reference images are required. Please send multiples if possible to give me an entire feel for the subject.

I. Digital Medium

You will receive

  • One .TFF 300DPI

Options

Simple Portrait with rough style: $20; 

One color or simple textured background, in color unless otherwise requested.

Examples: 
The Vampire Alucard (wip?) by Valyrien frost by Valyrien SPIV -- Approaching Storm by Valyrien Speed Paint II by Valyrien For the Glory by Valyrien

Portrait in semi-realistic style: $30. 

This style includes a background of your choice, only from bust up. Smooth painting style usually requiring quite a bit of more time. 

Examples:
Jay Gatsby by Nisshoku-art


Full body piece in rough style: $35-50;

 background of your choice, price rises based on complexity. Anything more than a bust falls under this category. 

Examples:
Fallen Star-- SP 5 by Valyrien

II. Oil Painting 

You will receive

  • 1 oil painting, signed by me. If on board, it will not include a cradle unless requested. Canvas will also not include hanging gear or frame. Deep edge or gallery siding canvas available according to request.
  • Thumbnail Sketch (if applicable)
PLEASE NOTE: Anything on wooden board or larger than 8x11 will have to be discussed as shipping rates will apply. 

Options

Work on Paper, Canvas Pad;$15. 

Will come rolled. Any background is acceptable as well as mixed media (watercolor and oil) requests. Size up to 12" x 16". Portrait, landscape ect. Price may vary depending on complexity.

Examples: (under co.)

Work on wooden board or stretched canvas < 20x24; up to $100. 

Price varies on materials, time and shipping. 

Examples: (under co. Will post once semester is over.)

Work on wooden board or stretched canvas > 20x24; $70+.

 Pricing really depends on complexity, size, and requested subject. Only available to people within driving distance at this time.

Examples: (under co. Will post once semester is over.)

III. Soft Pastel 

You will recieve...

  • One pastel piece, signed by me.
  • Thumbnail sketches

Options

Work on Regular Sketch paper < 8 x 11; $10-20. 

Varies Depending on Size.

Examples:
(under co.)

Work on Pastel Paper (up to 20x24); $20-50
Varies depending on Size and complexity. 

IV. Conceptual Work

This work typically varies from client to client so it is hard to give an exact price. This includes anything where I will need to come up with my own concept or idea to express what you want expressed. Essentially, if I am not painting directly from a photograph it is probably conceptual work. 

Conceptual work will cost at least $5 above an above option. For example, 8x11 oil on board piece ($30) plus $5 for the conceptual aspect = $35 final price. 

Examples:
For the Glory by Valyrien

How to order

  • When you're ready, send me a dA note or e-mail me (psdugger@gmail.com) with this form filled out:

YOUR NAME & E-MAIL:  
PAYPAL ADDRESS:  
COMMISSION TYPE:
 (I, II, III)
OPTION: (pick from under the types)
SIZING: (traditional work)
SURFACE: (Canvas, board ect.)
SUBJECT(S):  
REFERENCE IMAGE(S):
 (provide links or attach images to e-mail)  
ADDITIONAL INFO:  (color schemes, ect. Also, if you're requesting conceptual work please place your ideas/description ect. here.)

  • I will invoice your Paypal address with the total amount, after confirming your request.  Your commission slot is will be reserved as soon as you contact me, but forfeited if you cannot pay within a week. I accept 50% deposits to secure slots for larger commissions. Again, if for any reason I can't finish your commission and you've already paid, you WILL receive a full refund from me.

Please note

I am a fairly flexible with pricing, so please let me know if you'd like to request a commission at a lower cost. Also, I am open to donating work for Community events/organizations ect. so please email me! When in doubt, email me. The worst response will be no :)

PHEW this semester has been INSANITY! My first "real" painting class (make a seires based on one idea, do your own thing, 2 critiques is your whole grade) is almost done and I'm behind ;____;. I have 4 paintings to finish and only like... 2 weeks of class left. Sometimes I wanna screeeaammm! Once my portfolio is done, though, I will be posting high quality images and prints of my work, but getting it actually done is more important right now. If you'd like to view less quality images of my work, it's all availble on my art blog (spirithover.wordpress.com)

In other news, I got to meet Phil Wickham and give him a study version of a giant 2' by 4' piece I'm starting tomorrow. 
Here's a picture :)


It was really cool guys. I was like the only one to meet him cause he had to get to Ohio the next day. 

In other, other news I did a fun Jack Frost cosplay for Halloween. It will eventually be used for A-kon in July, but this is the "incomplete" version. No real pictures since it is incomplete, but here's some of me and my friends havin fun. Also, this is iswf!jack (if you don't know what that is, read this fanficiton series now.)



Yeah I look really creepy (not in a good way) on that last one, but it shows the whole cosplay. Also, I trick or treated for three hours with no shoes on in like 40 degree temps. Would just like to point that out :P.

ANYWAYYYYYY, that's what's been goin on with me. I hope to post some more work once the semester is over. Luvs :heart:

I have an art sale coming up (my first one I'm so excited!) on Saturday and still have two paintings to start and complete for it. That being said, expect some new work to be uploaded as I'll be taking "professional grade" photos to make prints.
