Commissions
are now available!
An art commission consists of custom artwork, created personally for
you by the artists of the DreamKeepers graphic novels, Dave &
Liz! Your commission can be anything! Renditions of personal characters
are frequent favorites. In fact, when ordering a commission, you get
the chance for your character to be featured in the background of
an upcoming DreamKeepers book as a crowd extra!
All commissions include a digital, web-ready JPEG image of the art,
in addition to the original signed drawing and a print of the finished
artwork sent to you in the mail.
Please read through the rules and conditions below, and start thinking
of what youd like to have as your commission! |

To
get a commission:
The
conditions below I retain for my own sanity and legal protection.
Please read through (there are cartoons), and then use the button
at the bottom to proceed to the checkout page.

First
condition - if you purchase a commission from me, you arent
allowed to sue me over it later. Now most people out there dont
need to hear this, but for that one special soul who trips on
the sidewalk and rushes to sue the city for neglecting to post
gravity-awareness signs, I have to include this stuff.
I frequently use commission characters as extras in big crowd
shots in my books. If you would prefer I not include your character,
inform me, and Ill do my best to honor your wishes. However,
I may forget or make a mistake. If you commission me, you acknowledge
the risk that your character may be placed into a crowd shot in
one of my books. You still own the copyright for your character,
but you are officially permitting me to use your character, in
a limited capacity, as an extra in my books, with no compensation
and no written agreement beyond this one. Also, it is possible
that some of my character designs, past or future, could bear
coincidental resemblance to your character, or be unconsciously
influenced by my exposure to your character. If you commission
me, you waive any right to file a lawsuit against me (Or Vivid
Publishing, or anyone related to my publishing activities) for
copyright infringement on your character. By commissioning me,
you are agreeing to the letter and spirit of these conditions.
By the way, its not like I actually have money.

Second
condition - I dont do revisions on commissions. Once its
complete, I cant return to it and incorporate changes, as
it wouldnt be fair to keep the next person in line for a
commission waiting. For this reason I need to have, written in
an e-mail message, a complete description of what you want your
commission to look like. Include any physical descriptions and
details you want to see, costuming, reference pictures, etc. Now,
I am perfectly happy to go back and make corrections -
if theres something in your e-mail description that I messed
up or forgot, please tell me and I can fix it! But if its
not included in your up-front description, it wont be included
in the commission, and I cant add it in later.

Third
condition - I like to post up finished commissions in my website
gallery, as well as art communities like DeviantArt and FurAffinity.
This condition is somewhat flexible - if there is a reason that
you want your commission to remain private, please e-mail me before
you purchase the commission so we can discuss it. I enjoy sharing
art online, and knowing that other people will never be able to
see the work may influence me to decline your request for a commission.
However, if you would like to be mentioned or linked to when I
post the art, thats totally fine- just let me know.
Couple
of other quick things:
Commissions
may take several weeks or longer to complete. If at any time the
wait is becoming too long, you are absolutely free to request
a refund, with no questions asked, and no hard feelings! It's
your money, after all.
I
will begin working on your commission sometime after both payment
and the full-description e-mail are received. We cannot guarantee
that your commissioned character will be included in the graphic
novel, based on the scenes needed, and the possibility of forgetfulness.
If it's important for you that your character is included as an
extra, e-mail us and we'll be sure to do our best!
By
clicking this link, I attest that I have read, understood, and
graciously acquiesced to all of the above conditions. Now, take
me to get a commission!
