Welcome!

I'm creating art for hobby/work.

About

Hi, I'm Sivka! I also go by Ko. I'm a 23 year old hobby artist living in Michigan with a chihuahua named Teetee and a cat named Ruby. Thank you for visiting, please enjoy the art!

Contact

To ask questions, please email me at [email protected], send me a DM on Instagram, or @ me on Twitter. Linked below as well is my Gumroad, where I sell brushes, .PSD files, and occasionally video process works.

Commissions

Commission status and slots available will be updated on my Twitter and Instagram when they open up, so please keep an eye out!

Below is some examples of my works (mainly bust/headshots), ranging from full line and color, to painterly style, to sketches.

Prices + Commission Types

At the moment, I am only creating bust type commissions.

  • Sketch: $45. Messy sketch with minimal or flat colors and cel shading.

  • Painterly: $60. Fully colored, a bit messier than a work with full lineart, colors and forms are blended together more.

  • Full-line and detailed coloring: $100. Complete clean lineart and detailed, full coloring.

I currently am not accepting commissions with more than 1 character/figure in a single artwork. I apologize for this inconvenience.

Commission Form

Please use the form below as a guide to fill out and email to me at [email protected]. PLEASE FILL ENTIRE FORM.

  • Your username/nickname:

  • Social media I can contact you with (If any):

  • Commission type: (Sketch, painterly, full-line/color, etc.)

  • Artwork background: (Transparent, flat color, pattern)

  • Reference images: (Attach images in your email)

  • Your PayPal address:

  • Other: (State any other information I should know to better complete your commission)

Important notes regarding this form:
I will not accept a commission with only descriptions of the character that I will be drawing. Please only include reference images.

I will not accept a commission if crucial parts of the form are incomplete (such as name/paypal address/commission type). These are important to ensure I can properly complete the commission.

Please utilize the "other" section of the form! Tell me about your characters personality (if you want), what show they're from, things like expression/pose/lighting. This will help me to create a better piece of artwork for you.

What will I draw/not draw?

These are things I am confident in and can do, and things I cannot/will not do.

I will draw:
Animal features (such as cat ears, horns, etc.)
Blood/Light gore (cuts/scratches/etc.)
Simple forms of armor

I will NOT draw:
NSFW (some very vague lewd is okay)
Heavy gore
Characters with heavy animal traits (furries)
Complex or heavy armor

I have trouble with, but will try:
Many or very small complex details
Male/masculine figures

Terms of Service

Usage after completion of artwork

  • The artwork may be used commercially except for resale as an NFT.

  • Credit is appreciated if the artwork is posted online anywhere, but not necessary every time.

  • Please do not use the artwork as/for NFT. I may block you from commissioning me in the future if this term is not met.

Reasons a commission may be declined

  • If you do not properly fill out the form, I will decline your commission request.

  • If you do not attach reference images for the character I will be drawing in your email, I will decline your commission request.

  • If a concept (pose/lighting/style of character/etc.) is something I think I can't properly execute, your commission may be declined.

  • If you are rude or hostile to me at any point during the commission process, your commission will be declined or cancelled. You may be blocked from commissioning me in the future if this occurs.

Payment, completion time, and receiving the artwork

  • I accept payments only through PayPal, and only in USD.

  • Payment is upfront and before the commission is started.

  • Payment will be requested after discussions for the contents and type of commission are finished and confirmed.

  • Commissions may be completed within a few days to a few weeks from time of payment.

  • A commission may be fully refunded and cancelled if I cannot complete it within a reasonable timeframe (longer than a few weeks).

  • You will receive the commissioned artwork in .PNG form via email, and two different types: without a background (transparent background) and with any background that was requested (if applicable).

Process of finalizing artwork details

  • Following payment and starting of the artwork, you will receive a sketch of the artwork. At this time, you may make requests for adjustments and changes. Any requests for changes are free.

  • Major adjustments requested too far into the process of an artwork's completion may be declined, but I will try my best to apply them!

  • You may receive more than 1 or 2 update images of the process of the artwork prior to its completion, unless more are requested, which is OK!

  • Please be clear as to what the contents of your artwork should be before you commission me. Major changes are sometimes difficult to make beyond the sketch phase, so please keep this in mind!

  • By default, the artwork of a character will be drawn from the chest up and include shoulders/hands (if applicable). Please ask if you would like this to be different!

  • Including references for any poses/lighting you want is extremely helpful and greatly appreciated!

Refund information

  • Refunds will not be issued if I have already completed a commissioned artwork.

  • Refunds may be partially issued if the commission is requested to be cancelled at an early stage (sketch stage, before coloring for lineart).

  • Partial refunds issued due to cancellation of an unfinished commission will be the difference of how complete the artwork is at time of cancellation. Example: If the artwork is %30 complete at the time of cancellation, the refunded amount will be %70 of the full payment.

Regarding waitlists

I will not be creating waitlists at this time, but it is a possibility for the future. If there are no open slots (availability will be listed on my Instagram and/or Twitter), then your request will be declined in a follow up email with the reason listed as "Unavailable slots". A declined commission due to unavailable slot space does not mean you can't request again in the future when slots are open. Please keep an eye out on my other social media to see when slots open up and commissions are available.

Thank you for reading!
