Q&A! (questions and answers!)

Welcome to the Q&A page of my website!
questions you may have/I belive I'd get asked alot will be here!
(if your question isn't here, reach out via instagram, tiktok, or my email!)

Q: Why do you charge so much?  Your art styles are so simple...?

A: It's the price I deemed fair for my art. And If you don't like my prices/don't agree with them, you don't have to order from me, and I'm not lowering them... It's my time I'm taking out of my day to give you a customized, stylized piece that I put possible HOURS into! (I have not spent less then 1h 20m (one hour and twenty miniutes) on my art in a VERY long time. Simply because I don't rush like I used to!


Q: I commissioned you in the past, why has the prices changed so much?

A: I chose to up my prices, fully because I realized I was underpricing myself as an artist who puts HOURS of care and love into my art.


Q: Why are the "animal bases" complexity based? and what does that mean?

A: complexity based means that the more detail the thing you're asking me to draw on the animal base is, the more it will cost (this caps out at $12). And they're complexity based because the base is pre-made by me, and I put your design on top of it!


Q: Are any of your other options complexity based?

A: Nope! not at all! <3 It's just those ones that are complexity based, as mentioned, I take the design you give me, or a "mood board" that you give me for a custom design.


Q: Why are the stickers called "custom "print-on-your-own" stickers"?

A: Since I cannot do shipping, I make custom stickers that you can print on your own, you can give me some oc(s), a mood board, doesnt matter! I'll find a way to turn it into stickers that you can print on your own! <3


Q: do you charge more for anthros? since it doesn't say on your price page?

A: Nope! I love drawing anthros! doesn't matter if you want something to be turned into an anthro, like a pet irl, I'll find a way to do it! <3 I don't charge more for one or the other! I also feel its a bit unfair for some who may want a feral or anthro, see the price, and hope that's the price for the one they want, but it ends up being more. <3


Q: Do you ever have sales / discounts?

A: Yes! I will occasionally have a discount active when I add a new product, or just want to have stuff to draw. You can also get discounts (and possibly free art that would tipically be kinda expensive... a semi-realism bust for example) with my loyalty card!

Q: What is a loyalty card? and how do they work?

A: loyalty cards are cards that are normally handed out at cafes/small businesses! | how they work: lets say you buy 1 item, on the card you get 1 stamp! after you get enough stamps you can claim discounts or free art! (or in the example: drinks/food at cafes/small businesses)

Q: Why don't you do art trades?

A: I have been scammed for my art in the past during art trades, and I don't super like to do art trades in general... so I'm super sorry for that! <3

Q: When are you adding animations/comics? and why  will they cost so much?

A: I don't know! I would prefer to get a bit better at animation before I start, and that can take months. And the prices? Animations can take hours, days, weeks, or possibly MONTHS! depending on the length! And, well... to be honest, I'll likely be charging way more then its listed for animations atm... especially if theres multiple characters involved! (same with comics, not by as much though!)


Q: Why is there so many sticker group options?

A: I want to allow for as much flexibility as possible, since if I just sell bulk of 2-4+, they wont sell super often! (especially because they can get expensive FAST)


Q: How long have you been doing commissions?

A: Over 2 years! and hopefully for many more! <3

Q: do you have any socials?

A: Yep! they are listed on the main page of my website! I commonly post updates, speedpaints of personal and commissioned art, promotions, and sales on Instagram and TikTok! (YouTube is mostly for speedpaints, and other content! <3)


Q: What do you use to draw all your commissions?

A: I use Ibispaint X! and I have for years! It's the app that suits me best, and its easy to move around, if you're looking into drawing digitally and cant find anything that doesn't cost an arm and a leg, I recomend it! <3 (its on pc (however its 1h a day unless u have the "plus" version), android, apple, and likely other things too!)


Q: What do you use to draw?

A: I used my finger on my phone for a long time before I got my tablet, But thankfully now I don't have too! <3 (it does make things slightly easier, but I started on a moblile phone with no stylis! and have occasionally drawn on pc! // I am not very good on pc tho\\) If you're just starting on digital, and don't have the budget to get anything expensive like a tablet or something, thats no worries! a phone and your hand will do just fine! <3


Q: Do you support AI/use AI?

A: HELL NO! AI is useless! I like MAKING the art, and being able to discover new things, or finding challenges within commissions! so no. I don't support AI, nor do I support the people who use it! I've been making art for so many years, why stop now just because AI made it "easier"? as the meme says... "I PREFER AI FREE... MESSY AND FULL OF LIFE MEDIA... MADE. BY. MAN!" HECK AI AND THE PEOPLE WHO USE IT! | also the AI brands P.M.O...!!
