, comment and watch!
oints:
Seeing as I am going to be starting school in the fall, I am hoping to build up a buffer of money so that I can afford my books and art supplies and all that jazz, and not be a broke college kid. I am not going to sell you some sob story that I am starving and without money, but my family has been hurting a bit lately, and every bit I could get to lessen the blow when I hit school and hundreds of dollars worth of supplies, it will help.
Now I'm sure, if you're watching me, you've been seeing me post up jewelry lately. Well, all of the jewelry I have been posting is, indeed, FOR SALE. I will continue to post up more jewelry over the coming days, but only so many at a time, so as to spare your poor inboxes any further spam of jewelry.
IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN JEWELRY: go HERE for all of your jewelry needs. See anything you like? Check the deviation page, there is a chance that it is for sale. EVEN if it does not say it is for sale, PLEASE ASK ME ABOUT IT. Some of them just haven't been replaced yet with newer photographs and an updated description.
Which brings me to my next point.
Some of it may not be for sale, but I AM WILLING TO CREATE CUSTOM PIECES, provided I have the materials and means necessary (or ways to go about doing them.) This MAY be more expensive than buying a pre-made piece, unless I have the materials already in my possession, in which case it will be roughly the same.
EXAMPLES OF 3-DIMENSIONAL COMMISSIONS:
-- I will create a button bracelet of any colour palette requested, for between $5-7. It will be more expensive if the colours include metal buttons, or are more specific (IE will only accept a certain shade of green/blue/whatever) but will typically be just the $5 price. Just give me your wrist measurement and requested colours and I will make one for you, special!
-- I will decorate shoes for you. The only drawback I have with this at the moment, is I have no way to be certain of acquiring the shoes you want on my own, so if you want a pair of shoes decorated, YOU WILL HAVE TO SEND ME THE SHOES. Obviously, this will then be cut out of the cost, and I will decorate them, depending on complexity, for anywhere between $10-20. I will do custom laces if requested, by colouring them myself. I will not replace the laces with purchased coloured versions, unless specifically requested, which will add probably a couple bucks to the price to take care of that.
-- I can do cut metal pendants. At this point in time, I regret to inform that I am without access to the materials to smith or solder, so I will only be able to do flat metalworking pieces. I will cut any shape, with the price depending on complexity and the metal requested. IE, aluminum is cheaper than copper, which is cheaper than brass, and the simpler the design, the cheaper it will be. The example of the alto clef would be $20, and that includes the velvety ribbon (which is from a vintage spool of ribbon) and the clasp closure in the back. The heart design (front and back), minus any additional work, would be $30. With the addition of the paper covering, and the letters punched in, and the cord, it would be $40. Mostly this is in the cost of the cord, since it was leather.ALL THAT STATED, this is an extremely customizable thing! Have a design you've drawn up that signifies your characters or story or yourself? I will cut it out for you, I will do whatever you want to it. It can be left with a semi-rough finish if you want, or I will file and sand it as smooth as I can. I cannot currently polish anything, unfortunately. But work with me, I'll do whatever you want, as many layers as you want. I only have access to brass, copper, and aluminum though, so please keep that in mind!
-- I will make themed junk necklaces. Just bear in mind, if the theme is a little harder to fit to, that this may take a while and/or cost more because of it! I have a lot of old keys (very few skeleton keys however) and strange misc pendants and buttons, you name it. I cannot give a basic price for these, as it really is completely on a case-by-case basis, but I will try to work with you on price if you're interested in getting one of these!
-- I will make MASKS. I suppose I might make tophats as well but I would really need to discuss that in-depth before I did it, and get measurements and everything else, because I am not 100% sure on how to size the hats properly just yet. But the masks, I'll do those! I will do them fabric covered, feather covered, decorated-- whatever you'd like. Please note that while I am willing to do plague masks/beaked masks, I have a limited number of bases left to do that with, and may have difficulty creating more if I run out. Masquerade masks are always fair game. Just bug me about what you'd like on them, and I'll come up with a price for you based on materials and complexity! As before, I will work with you on price if you are interested in purchasing such a thing.
-- I can hand-bind journals! The two options shown are soft-bound and hard-bound. I will do either. I have any number of duct tape and masking tape colours to cover with, and if tape isn't your thing, discuss with me and I may be able to do paper or fabric covering instead. The sketchbook variation can have plain white paper, or off-white. Notebook variation can be vertical with creme coloured/blue lined paper, or horizontal (opens up and down) with white/blue lined paper. Each journal starts with a baseline of 5 signatures of 10 pages each. I will add additional signatures of 10 pages for $0.50 each for white paper/$1 each for creme paper (since my stock is limited).For a 5 signature journal with white paper, the price is $8 for soft-bound, $10 for hard-bound, with additional cost if a special covering is requested for the journal. A creme journal of the same size is $12 for soft-bound, $15 for hard-bound as the base line. Talk to me. I can add pockets, I can add velcro or loop or clasp closures, I can add a built in bookmark, etc. This will adjust price, but not probably by much.
-- I will make masking tape or duct tape sculptures. This is somewhat limited as to what I can accomplish with it, but request whatever you want and I will say if I am capable or not! A dress/suit, measuring around 6-8 inches tall, would cost $8-10 depending on complexity. I can add stands, or make them to stand on their own, if requested.
A hand, which would be life sized, would be $8 in an unaltered pose. In the above example of the "hand gun", it would be $10.
For more complex sculptures, such as the violin, please contact me for pricing. I cannot say off the top of my head how much such things would cost, without knowing specifically what they are. The price range for these, due to being more detailed-- expect them to cost more than the smaller, simpler pieces.
I regret to inform that I am incapable of doing ceramics commissions right now, as I lack access to a proper kiln, even if I could get a hold of the raw materials.
And if you see any plain old beaded stuff in my gallery and would like altered versions, ask me about that, too! Really, I'm willing to do a lot of things here! See anything you like that doesn't seem to be for sale, or doesn't fit the above categories? Please inquire! I may be willing to do copies of pieces.
SO THAT COMPLETES THE 3-DIMENSIONAL COMMISSIONS
Whew! That was a lengthy list!

-- I will photomanipulate any picture you send me into whatever you wish. Price range is $5-25 depending on complexity. Obviously, if I am doing minor alterations for a beauty shot or something, or cloning something simple out, or etc, it will be more towards the lower end. If I am doing a particularly detailed manipulation, SPECIFICALLY if I am required to supply pictures of my own props for parts of the manipulation, expect it more towards the higher end.
-- I will do charcoal pieces, the pricing would depend on the subject. The price range for this, expect to be in the $10-20 range. I will send the original to you, provided you pay the shipping. These are done on 12x18 charcoal paper in varying shades of grey. I can do white charcoal pieces, black charcoal pieces, or mixed.

+$3 for simple background, $5 for hand-lettered typographical background, or $10 for fully detailed background.
+$2 for complete shading.
I can mail you the original, provided you pay the shipping.
-- The default for sharpie pictures, is the drawing is on simple 8 1/2 x 11 white paper. I will cover the paper from edge to edge in colours, patterns, whatever. You can specify certain themes and motifs to appear in the composition, specify particular colours, or specify special characters or objects you would like to appear. I will hand-letter quotes and phrases for you, or whatever you want. Pricing is between $15-25 depending on complexity of request.

Shading with this option is unavailable.
I can mail you the original, provided you pay the shipping.
Anything else in my gallery that you see, I am willing to discuss doing. I am also willing to draw pictures on things other than paper. IE if you want a drawing on the cover of a sketchbook, I am willing. I can bind a book myself, and draw a picture on it. I have several types of moleskine in my possession, and would also be willing to draw on them, or any other sketchbook I am provided with. Just contact me for additional information if you're interested in anything, whether it's on the list or not, and we can talk specifics and figure things out.
Anything that requires shipping, YOU will pay the shipping. I cannot be expected to handle the shipping on everything, especially if I am sending oversized or heavy items like some of my 3-dimensional work could involve. The prices above are only the full price for digital commissions, or traditional drawings you do not want to have mailed to you.
I cannot do prints of digital commissions.
PAYMENT
I will accept payment in a couple of ways:
1. I have a paypal, and will accept half payment up front, and half payment after I am finished with the commission. If you would prefer, you could also just pay me everything up front and get it over with. I will not begin work until I have received at least half of the payment, however.
2. I will accept check or money order through the mail. With this option, for any commission priced under $20, I would expect full payment up front. It keeps things simpler. For anything above $20, I would still accept half before and half after.
If you are looking to commission a more expensive piece, I am willing to work with payment in sections, so you don't have to pay all, or even half, at once. Just talk to me, I'm extremely flexible and will try to work something out.
If you've read through all of this, thank you! Even if you aren't personally interested in purchasing anything from me, I'd really appreciate if people could spread the word!
Ciao!
