Q. 1) "Do you accept credit cards?"
A) So far, I can only do so through an online service called PayPal.
Q. 2) "What do you charge for your illustrations?"
A) What I charge depends on a few things;
-1) What, in detail, will my illustration be used for?
-2) What, in detail, must be shown in the illustration?
-3) How soon do you need this done? (How soon does your printer need my art to meet your deadline?)
-4) I get the impression you've seen www.dalegladstone.com? What samples were like what you want? Please send me your fax # with your selection. I'd like to send you an invoice so you can send a deposit before I begin. Please put in writing any details I must include in the art. Also put in writing anything I must not include. The reason for this instruction is best explained by the following story:
Once I was asked to do a marker drawing of a man at his desk. No instructions were given regarding his attire, so I drew him in a jacket & tie. When the client saw this, they said, "Oh no, he musn't be dressed that way, no jacket & tie..." With a marker drawing, the only way to fix this would be to put him in a black turtleneck or do the whole drawing over again. They didn't want a black turtleneck. They finally understood why I had to charge them for 2 drawings to give them what they did want, but I wish to avoid such unhappy situations in the future. That's why I always ask clients to put their do's & don'ts in writing. Not all changes require a double fee. Some are even free. I only charge for needed changes that are not my fault. How much I charge depends on how much work is required & how much time is left to do it.
