In what medium? I also get requests for oil paintings and then they expect it done in two weeks for $100! I mean it takes at least one month to paint it the way they want it, not to mention up to 6 months to dry. And usually the size they want in canvas alone would be $250, not including the paint. Just to break even on one in particular, I estimated $1,200 and that was only the cost of materials.

People really have no idea what this kind of work takes. I don't even do commissions. When people ask, I say no. The only reason I took this one is because of the in-laws.
