The Artist
I reserve the right to refuse service to anyone for any reason at any time during the order process.
If you break any of these Terms of Service during the order process, that is grounds for me to cancel your order and issue a refund. I will also cancel your order if you are ever disrespectful in any way towards myself or any kind of group.
I reserve the right to use all denied works and designs to later sell.
If you at any point deny any concepts I send (I usually send at least 2 concepts to choose from), those denied concepts will later be used in the future for a premade piece.
You are paying for my labor and services, I still retain all rights to my works.
You may use my work as icons, banners, etc., however, you do not reserve the right to claim my work as your own and resell for a higher value. If you are to ever sell your piece, it must be sold at the exact same price or lower than you purchased it for.
Due to the fact minors cannot have payment accounts, and the fact that the commission experience is meant to be and stay professional, I do not accept orders from minors.
If you are a minor and would like an order from me, please have your parent contact me.
I will not share, give out, or sell any of the personal and private information gained during the business transaction.
This includes but isn't limited to; addresses, full names, payment account username, etc.
The Commissioner
You reserve the right to cancel your order at anytime for any reason.
If you would like to cancel your custom order, please contact me via email at barkingredwolf@gmail.com and I will cease work of your order ASAP and we will work out the refund.
You are allowed to use the work you buy as profile pictures, banners, ETC., however, you do NOT reserve the right to pass my work off as your own and try to resell it for a higher value than you bought it at.
If you at any point choose to resell the piece you have gotten from me, please explicitly state it is not made by you (giving full credit back to me by listing my business name would be very nice), and you must sell it at either the price you got it at or lower. DO NOT charge more than what you bought it for.
You can check on your order progress at anytime, just please be mindful and reasonable about it.
Please do not ask me about your progress everyday; beadwork and stained glass takes a long time to prep for and execute. If you are the type that has to know what's going on at every stage, maybe check in once a week as opposed to every day, as you will see more progress done and will not be taking me away from my work as often.
Remember; every time you reach out to me about the progress, I have to take time away from working to respond.
You are responsible for paying for your commission in full.
Unless we previously agreed on a payment plan, you must pay in full the day I send you my payment information/the day you order off the website.
You will not share, give out, or sell the personal and private information gained during the commission process.
This includes, but is not limited to; email address, home address, full name, payment account username, ETC.
Revisions
You get one free concept after the original two.
I usually give 2 concepts to choose from. If you are not satisfied with either one, you have ONE more free concept after this. It is important you tell me everything you want included in your piece the first time you approach me, and make your vision clear and easy to understand and execute.
Every concept after the free ones is an extra $10. You do not get to keep any of the copys of the concepts you denied; those will most likely be used for premade pieces so the concepts do not go to waste and will go to someone who does like them.
You, the Commissioner, are responsible for letting me, the Artist, know if any changes have to be made on any Work In Progress Photos (WIPPs).
PLEASE do not be afraid or hesitate to tell me if something in any of the WIPPs is not to your liking/not accurate to what you envision and I will do my best to correct it for you.
Revisions are free.
Revisions encompass small edits or additions to one of the existing concepts you approve of.
This can include anything from changing how the animal is posed slightly to adding plant or floral accents.
You, the commissioner, are responsible for updating me, the artist, on any changes made to the character or prompt since commissioning me.
It is incredibly important that if any changes are made to the character or prompt originally given that you let me know of this information ASAP so that I can make everything as accurate to your vision as possible.
I can't read minds; so I won't know unless I am told explicitly about the changes.
Deadlines and Delivery
You, the commissioner, are responsible for informing me, the artist, if there is a specific deadline you would like your piece by.
Please be within reason; allow up to a month for me to work on your piece, that way if it is done early, you have less stress on your shoulders than if you were to contact me a week away from the deadline and it's not done in time due to x, y, or z reasons.
I work as fast as I can and usually work between 8-10 hours a day.
Please allow up to 3-4 days after your piece is finished for me to ship your piece out.
Especially if it's a Stained Glass piece, as I have to do a lot of prep and wrapping for Stained Glass to ensure it gets to you safely.
Beadwork should only take about 2-3 days to ship out after finishing.
Communication
I will be communicating with you 1 on 1 throughout the entire commission process.
From picking the glass and beads used to picking out the patina or even the threading color used for the piece, you have full freedom and customization during the entire commission process.
I will message you during every stage, sending photos as well so you can not only see where I'm at, but also take in how your piece is coming together. I send LOTS of photos, so be prepared for that.
