Before you ask. The answers.

The questions that come up most often, answered the same way I would answer them by email.

How long will my piece take?

Two to three weeks for most commissions, depending on how complex the piece is and how many jobs are ahead of yours. The clock starts when your deposit clears, not when you send the form. If you need it sooner, rush delivery adds 25% and moves you to the front of the queue.

How does payment work?

Half up front to hold your slot, half once you have approved the piece and before the final files go out. PayPal and CashApp.

What if it is not going the way I pictured?

You sign off on the sketch before any rendering begins, which is where most changes belong and where they cost nothing. After that, three revision rounds are included, then $20 each. Revisions stay inside your original brief — a new concept halfway through is a new quote.

Can I put the artwork on a book I am selling?

Yes, with a commercial licence, which is $35 on top of the piece. The personal use licence is free but covers private use only, like a profile picture. If you want to own the artwork outright and be able to print or resell it, that is full rights at $100.

Will the art be posted before my book launches?

Finished work goes in the portfolio unless you have bought full rights. If you need the piece held back until your release date, say so in your brief and it stays private until you give the word.

Can I cancel?

Before work begins, yes, and the deposit comes back. Once work has started the deposit is non-refundable, because it covers time already spent. Once the final files are delivered there are no refunds.

What do you need from me to get started?

Appearance, clothing, pose and expression in writing, any reference images you have, the genre, your deadline, and which licence you need. Send it all at once through the commission form — missing references are the main reason a job stalls.

Which genres do you take?

Fantasy, science fiction, romance and horror are regular work. If your book sits outside those, ask anyway — the answer is usually yes.

The terms every WovenPage commission runs on. They are the same terms quoted beside the rates and on the brief form.

Quotes and prices

Every price is published on the rates list, and the brief form totals your selection as you fill it in.

Cover rates start at the figure shown, so the final quote can be higher once the brief has been read. The quote is confirmed in writing before any work begins.

Rush delivery moves a commission to the front of the queue and adds 25% to the total.

Payment and deposit

50% up front to hold your slot, 50% before final files are sent.

Payment is accepted by PayPal and CashApp.

Turnaround

2-3 weeks, starting when the deposit clears.

Packages and turnaround sheets are quoted per set, and the timing for those is confirmed with the quote.

Revisions

Three revision rounds are included on every commission.

Further revisions beyond the three included are $20 each.

Licence and usage

The licence you choose on the brief decides how the finished art may be used.

  • Personal use, free: private printing and profile use.
  • Commercial use, +$35: published covers and paid promotion.
  • Full rights, +$100: you own it outright, to print or resell.

Cancellation and refunds

Refundable before work begins. Once work has started the deposit covers time already spent.

What you receive

Character commissions are delivered as print-resolution PNG and JPG files.

Book covers are sized for the format you are publishing in: ebook dimensions for a front cover, or your printer's template for a full wrap.

That is the end of the terms.

Your readers already picture them.
