PRICING

I will create a custom cartoon for your business or personal needs.  Rates are based on the complexity of the cartoon, the anticipated use, the rights you purchase, your timeframe, and whether you want color or black & white.  Simple cartoons cost less.  Full color, complicated cartoons cost more.  I have a $50 minimum.  These rates provide guidelines only.  Please contact me for an exact quote.

• Typically, I require a deposit of 50% before I begin work, unless otherwise agreed upon.  The remainder is due upon completion of the project. Although rare, there are occasions when a client has decided they are no longer interested in the work after I have begun.  The 50% retainer assures me of your seriousness, and it prevents me from losing money if you decide you no longer want the product. 
  
  
• Once you give me the go-ahead to start the final product, I can only make changes if you agree to pay an additional negotiated fee.   This is because any changes require me to start all over again, which requires extra time on my part.  This precludes me from working on other projects.
  
  
• I accept cash, personal check, and credit cards (through PayPal).  Even if you don't have a PayPal account, you can still pay me through PayPal's email invoicing tool.  You receive an email invoice with instructions on how to pay me online using a credit card or your bank account.  There is no additional cost to you.  And it is secure.  When you send a payment using PayPal, the recipient doesn't receive your personal financial information like your credit card or bank account number.
