~Basically, the more effort and time I put into a drawing, the more expensive it’s going to be. Keep that in mind when you email me.~

Art that Samui will NOT do:
Copyrighted art without the written permission from the copyright holder.
Fan art unless I have a reference picture and copyright information to write on the picture (I will not be legally charged for breaking a copyright law for you.)
Pornographic material. I don’t draw Hentai/Yaoi/Yuri/child pornography/incestual encounters or any other art of that nature. (Shonen ai and Shojo ai are accepted.)

Payment methods:
I do not have a PayPal account. I do, however, accept Money Orders. I do not accept checks. Sorry for the inconvenience but I am not going to fight to get the money for my commissions and don’t like dealing with bounced checks. Make it easy on me and yourself. ^.^ When I get a PayPal account thing set up I will allow payments that way.

You can either pay me the full amount when I finish (I’ll inform you when I am done) or half and half. I will show you when your picture is halfway done and completed (I can get scanner access for traditional art.) I will not send out a picture to you until I have received full payment for it. May seem really stuck up of me but I am putting time and effort into something I plan to get paid for. It is unfair to me if I don’t receive that I expect to receive for the work I produce. (You all understand, it’s only fair. You would expect the same ^.^)

Artists notes:
I reserve the right to post any and all art on my Deviant Art page: [link]
On Digital art pictures that have been requested fully colored I will post the sketch on my DA page. And if I get scanner access I will do the same on Traditional pieces as well.
Do not take any art I have drawn for you, erase my name, and claim it as your own. I drew it, I deserve the claim on the art. I will add any writing, if you request writing on the picture that I drew for you.
All of my pieces are dated in some way. If I find a completely identical piece (without credit to me) and determine it to be stolen from me I will report it. I don’t mind my art being displayed but credit me for it. Because Samui turns into a real snarling monster when stuff is stolen from her.
If you find my art has been stolen, please report it to me. Thank you

10% of the money I receive for commissions will go for charity check out Enchantma’s Deviant Art page for more information: [link]
