Description

The listing, FREE 8x10 Custom Pencil Portrait Commission has ended.

It was so much fun the first time I decided to do it again!
Above are some examples of my artwork. Usually I charge a specific price to anyone who wants me to draw a portrait of themselves or a loved one.
This site has been such fun and the people are so nice that I wanted to offer something unique and special.
I do have some terms to follow so PLEASE read them before bidding!!
Click here: www.theartofjes.com/art-commissions.html
Just disregard the prices and read the steps. Remember this auction is for an 8x10 portrait ONLY.
Shipping is a flat rate of $5.00. I use Priority mail service, which includes a tracking number. If you would like to add additional insurance let me know in an email if you win.
I prefer PayPal.
Serious bidders only!
**Please note that I work better using high quality, clear photos! You can have up to 2 people in the photo for this auction. If the bids go over 3000 I will be willing to add another person and, if you wanted, the background as well. Also please allow between 2 to 3 weeks, depending on the picture, for me to complete a drawing. If you need it for a specific event that is sooner please let me know.
Thank you for looking!

My profile picture is a piece of art I drew for a nation MS society art contest and won Honorable mention. Thanks for asking, but I am still working on drawing people. Mine are no where near the quality of yours!

howd u get a higher starting bid amount?

May 6th, 2011 at 11:35:24 PM PDT by

you can start the bid anywhere between 0 - 100. it's always been like that since I started. on the listing page on the bottom click on 'show advanced options' and there you can set the starting bid and number of days. i'm not sure if you can start higher than that with more experience etc..

***UPDATE**** I can no longer edit this listing, but I wanted to add an incentive to this auction for those of you still watching and reading the comments. If the credits go over 5000 I will offer FREE SHIPPING!! ONLY if the credits go over 5000 so keep on bidding.
BTW: The auction ends at a weird hour because I was up late when I first listed it so make sure you enter your final bids before you go to bed in 4 days :D I will be more careful about the time I list auctions in the future.
Also, thanks for all the favs. You guys are the best!

when do you need the payment by and what are the payment methods?

May 12th, 2011 at 8:49:19 PM PDT by

Depending on the picture I will let you know how long it should take to finish, which is usually between one and three weeks. Shipping can be sent anytime between then. I will email a digital picture of the drawing to let you know I'm finished and mail it out right away.

May 13th, 2011 at 7:12:52 AM PDT by

I prefer PayPal, but will also accept money order.

May 13th, 2011 at 7:16:45 AM PDT by

Thanks, I was just wondering because i have to transfer the money from my savings to paypal and it takes a few days.

May 13th, 2011 at 5:07:06 PM PDT by
