• Don't send me any payment before I have agreed to give you a slot and requested you to send me the payment.
03 Process and Delivery
• The time it takes to finish your commission varies 2-8 weeks. Artworks may take longer depending on factors such as health, the complexity of the commissioned piece and other work.
