TERMS
I will only consider jobs that align with my principles. No hateful, racist, or any sort of bigoted crap. I do not want my name attached to ignorance. I will also not work on any project that uses AI.
PROCESS
If you have interest in working with me to create artwork for your bands merch, logo, or album cover, please email me here. I'll get back to you ASAP with a response and we can go from there. Please provide info about your project- things like links to your music, or links to other things that relate to your idea. Also, make sure to let me know if there are deadlines or if I'll be working with 3rd party on this (say, a record label).
Once a direction is agreed upon, I will provide an estimate on cost. I require a 50% non-refundable downpayment due before I start drawing/designing. I'll invoice the project so you are kept up-to-date on what's due monetarily and by when. I do not mind payment plans as long as they aren't drawn out too far. But keep in mind, I will not send any/all finished artwork files until the invoice is paid in full.
COMMUNICATION
I prefer email as I can refer back to the correspondence as needed for specifications of the project. However, I understand that some things are hard to explain, and can provide a phone number so we can talk in person.
ART PROCESS
I will start with sketches (up to 5 different ideas), and send those to make sure we're on the same page. From there I make adjustments if needed. Once the concept is 100% agreed upon I will start the final artwork. making it to your specifications (as in, make it so it will fit your needs- shirts, stickers, logos, covers).
If changes and alterations go above and beyond what was originally agreed upon, I will require another deposit, because, in essence, it'll become a new project altogether.
Once the artwork is completed and fully paid, you will receive all files to a provided email address via a wetransfer download link.
PAYMENT
All payments will be invoiced through Atrament Studios, LLC, my business website (the one you're on).
