  • I will contact you via Email with a quote. Once I receive payment I will begin working.
  • Allow for 3 – 20 days for your commission to be completed. This depends on your place in line and the type of commission.
  • I will send you sketches, drafts, mockups, and color plans, and update you throughout the entire creative process, so please check your email regularly. After sending the final image you no longer have the option to request revisions.
Payment Information

Payment method: Only PayPal is accepted, no checks. Commissions can be paid either 100% upfront or split 50% upfront and 50% after sketch approval. (Do not send payment before I have confirmed your order).

Pricing Costs: Projects that include complex character designs, multiple characters, lack good visual references, complex backgrounds, increased detail and length of time will increase costs. Additional revisions (meaning after initial completion) range between $5-$50 depending on complexity.

Refund Policy: There are no refunds once I begin working on your commission. For any reason I am unable to start your commission, you will receive a full refund. If you cancel your order before I have started, you can get a full refund. Please don’t initiate a PayPal chargeback if you’re due a refund. I’ll handle the transfer personally. Initiating a chargeback when ineligible will result in forfeiture of the commissioned artwork.

Copyright & Usage Policy

I, Zoie Williams, a.k.a Art by Zewzew (the artist) claim the rights to the commissioned artwork, not the buyer. Therefore I am allowed to use the copyrighted artwork to:

  • Promote myself using the commissioned image.
  • Publish media with the commissioned image (artbooks, etc.).
  • Display the commissioned image anywhere to my liking (website, social media, etc.).
  • I will NOT claim the intellectual property (IP) of the commissioned artwork.
  • I will NOT profit further from the commissioned artwork.

The Buyer is allowed to:

  • Use the commissioned piece for personal use unless agreed otherwise (uploading on social media, etc.). You are not forced to give me credit when posting it but it is appreciated.
  • Print the artwork and claim the character(s) as their own, but not the artwork itself.
  • Use the artwork on their Youtube channel and in monetized videos as long as the artwork itself is not the main subject for the earnings.
  • Retain the rights to the intellectual property (IP).

The following is considered copyright infringement:

  • Reproduce/use the artwork commercially unless agreed otherwise (reselling, redistributing, uploading to POD services, making prints, making profits, etc.)
  • Claim the artwork as their own.
  • Remove my signature from the artwork.
  • Alter the artwork without my consent.

I reserve the full rights to the image and its use/distribution unless otherwise agreed upon (the license to the commissioned artwork may be purchased at any point).

Commercial Use Policy

If you plan to use any of the commissioned work for business-related use intended for profit you must pay a $100 additional fee. All other commissions are considered for personal use and do not require additional fees.

Customer Satisfaction

I will do everything I can to ensure my customers are satisfied! If you have a problem with anything in regard to the commissioned piece please tell me right away so we can find a solution together. I am willing to change some of my terms prior to starting the commission. For example, if you do not want me to post or publish your art anywhere, this can be arranged.
