I have decided, after a very hard nervous break down and a little advice from a good friend, that to find out who am I as a person and an artist to take a break from DA. My work is starting to look too mcuh like the art of those I watch.
I will still answer comments and notes I just wont be as active.I will also still accept comissions and Art Trades Though. So if you would like one just contact me through my email me at sapphirevale@yahoo.com.
I would first like to thank everyone watching me and supporting me for the past year I have been here. This includes





THANK YOU FOR THE SUPPORT AND HELP YOU'VE GIVEN ME!!!!
I promise I will not be gone very long.

COMMISSION PROCESS:
How it works:
1. Email me with your commission request with description any /all reference photos(will not accept commission if photo reference is not high resolution) and payment method included. and I will respond with whether I accept or deny your request.
2. After accepting your request,I will begin as soon as possible. I will formulate a rough draft and send you a preview of it at which point you can suggest changes. Once the rough draft is approved, I require that you pay half or all of the total payment before any other progress is begun on your commission.
3. Once payment is received, I will begin finalizing your commission, sending you updates on the progress at intervals.Once the finished product is completed, I will send you a preview of it and if it is to your liking, I will require final payment of the total fee before the finished original product is mailed to you (shipping and handling is included in the price we agree upon in step 1).

COPYRIGHT INFO:
When you commission me for characters of your own, all rights to the characters remain yours. However, I retain the copyright to the particular image which I am commissioned for meaning I have the right to display it in my galleries and portfolio (online and in real life).
