My labor price is $30/hour for graphic design services. Illustrations are dependent on size and overall printing charges. Resin is dependent on depth of the mould. Henna candles is dependent on the amount of candles needed to design. Paintings are dependent on cost of materials (and time) The time required depends on the quality and complexity of the artwork/project, and additional fees or royalties may apply based on the required license (the exclusivity rights purchased.) So the pricing depends on the: Deliverables: scope of work, how many illustrations are required, the style and complexity of the artworks (level of detail.) How the artworks will be used: normally, I -as an artist- will keep the copyright of the images I do. The copyright can be purchased, however, the fees tend to be above the budget for most of the clients. The common option here is buying the usage license which states where and how you may use the artwork. You should tell where the work will be displayed, and in which media. For example: physical print, website, social media, digital display, in stores, on merchandise, on billboards etc. You have also to specify which territories in the world and for how long you'd like to use the artworks. For this, your detailed project descriptions are required for me to share an estimated price quickly. I generally make a discount of 15% on the whole price after the 5th-10th piece. P.S. You can always add your budget when you email your inquiry, some services are offered with fixed prices.

The time to deliver a commission depends on the complexity of the style and the deliverables required. I can provide a pretty accurate turn around time for a project once briefed about the deliverables. The better the brief, the better the estimate.

If you approve the price quote, an invoice will be automatically created and sent to you. Unless other terms are specified, I ask for 50% of the quote as a down payment. This term will be mentioned in the quote and in the invoice. The down payment is non-refundable.
