Commissioning my work

If you wish to request a commission from me, please email me at [email protected] OR message me on discord at kat.dreams.I receive payments through paypal HEREIf you feel uncomfortable with that method of payment, I require partial payment that is non refundable after the commission has been started. With this being said, I tell any and every customer, if in the event where I do not get paid in full, or at all, they get black listed, blasted, and the artwork will be used for my own enjoyment, let’s be good sports alright.By commissioning the Artist, the Client confirms that they have read, understood, and agreed to all of the above terms. The Client understands that violating any of these terms may cause immediate cancellation and refunding of their commission.
