Q: How do I commission you and stay in touch?

A: Please message me in any of the sites above or email me at [email protected].

Q: Can I repost my commissioned piece?

A: Though I appreciate shares, reblogs and retweets more, yes you may, provided that you give me proper credit, e.g. tagging me, or linking back to my original post if it’s outside of my social networking sites.

Q: I can’t afford your prices. Is there another way for me to support you?

A: Yes! Liking, sharing, retweeting, and/or reblogging my works is highly appreciated. I also receive tips at ko-fi.com/adarlingmess

Q: Your prices are too high/I can hire other artists for less! Can I have a discount?

A: Sorry, my prices are set as such because freelance illustration is my primary source of income. Aside from illustrating, my work as a freelance artist also involves other skills such as advertising, customer service, among others. I’d like to be compensated fairly for my skills and labor. Watch out for promos during holidays though!

Q: I want you to work on a project with us. Are you for hire?

A: Please send me an email at [email protected] and I’ll get to you shortly.
