Why I don’t partake in commissions

The prices are way to high. That is like, my biggest issue. I understand you need to make the money, as most people do, but if you’re charging the same amount of money for a cheap tv remote for something as simple as a damn sketch you’re kinda pissing me off already. And I promise you, I’ve seen worse. One example is an artist (not saying their name to piss them off sorta.) who charged 20$ for a line art sketch. Which jumped to 50$ for a simply shaded image, +$10 per character. Which jumped to a staggering 70 bucks for what most people would charge 30$ for. Then it jumped to 100$..then 120$….then 160$. So on and so forth. And their art wasn’t even good. And when they started making posts saying “why isn’t anyone commissioning everything’s reasonable” blah blah blah, I just sat and laughed.
Listen: artists making commissions: make the prices lower than you think you need to.

Art is a luxury, not a necessity. It doesn’t need to be affordable for everyone.

On top of that: prices online are way below what professional artists are charging / being payed. Just saying.

This is entitlement.

Ahh yes

We are charging far too much for you to afford, so we should adjust our prices that suit you.

We have bills to pay and groceries to buy, you ass nugget.

>> prices too high

>> look for an artist whose prices meet your budget and they still provide good quality work. *PROBLEM SOLVED!!*

    commissions are custom work. commissions are hand crafted. as already stated there’s a big difference between someone...
