I am closed to indie commissions. Please check back in August 2025.
Commercial work for companies, please contact me directly at elaine[at]artofelaineho.com.
Beginning 2025, commercial work for selfpub/indie authors start at $1500, and $2000 for a wraparound cover. I’m not available for personal commissions, and I’m comfortable with NSFW.
I do one thing only: full illustrations, which means fully rendered characters with backgrounds. More characters will be quoted more, but I do not charge different prices over busts/half-body/full body/environment or not; I paint what suits the composition and mood best.
I take a minimum of two weeks to complete commissions, but a month is most ideal.
In my contracts, I usually stipulate a maximum of 3 changes at the sketch stage, and ask for permission to sell the finished illustration as prints after a 6 month period of exclusivity.
In return, you get full commercial rights. Credit is not enforced but deeply appreciated.
A sample copy of my freelance contract can be read here.
Thank you so much for considering me!
