Pet Portraits
Order Agreement
By commissioning a portrait by Blue Bliss through houseofbliss.com you are hereby agreeing to the terms and conditions outlined in this agreement.
The Basic Portrait Process
The artwork will be my interpretation of the subject, based on the information you provide. While not photorealistic, my portrait will honor your pet’s beauty. My aim is to bring their personality to life, balancing accurate likeness with expressive energy.
-
Fill out the Order Form: Upload the photo(s) of your pet to be used for the portrait. And feel free to include descriptive details about your pet and what you want their portrait to look like.
-
Order confirmation and design sketch: After emailing you to confirm receipt of your order and photos, I will send a preliminary design proof showing composition and colors for you to review. One free round of revisions can be made at this point.
-
Finished art and proof for review: When the pet portrait is completed, I will email a watermarked proof of the artwork for your review. You can request one free round of minor revisions. Major revisions are available for an additional fee.
-
Digital art delivery: Once you approve the finished art I will send a link to the 300 dpi RGB jpeg file, suitable for printing.
Payment
Total price: $150
Payment in full is due when ordering. Payments will be processed through PayPal, Apple Pay, credit card or Venmo. (Not all payment options are available in countries outside the US.)
Donations
For every Basic Portrait order of $150, I will donate $25 to a worthy cause. You can name your own choice of people businesses or organizations, or pick from my list. After sending your link to the portrait file download, I will email you a confirmation of the donation. I reserve the right not to donate to a person, business or organization that engages in hate, violence, etc.
Customer Supplied Photos
You can send photos by uploading them in the Order Form or by email to blue@houseofbliss.com.
Quality reference photos matter and make a huge difference in the end product of portraits. It also helps to have multiple reference photos for the best capture. If the supplied photos are problematic, I will work with you to find solutions such as shooting new photos or styling the artwork to compensate. You must have the legal right to use the photography sent and I am not liable for the use of any copyrighted photos you send.
Copyright
I retain all copyrights of the produced artwork. You have permission to display the work for private use, but any reproduction of the work that will be used for profit or commercial uses is strictly prohibited unless I approve in writing. When sharing work publicly, you agree to give me credit though clear and visible labeling, tagging or verbal acknowledgement.
Revisions
There will be two opportunities for you to request revisions:
-
When reviewing the initial design proof, one round of revisions is free.
-
When reviewing the finished art, one more free round of revisions is offered.
Extra or major revisions to the finished art are available for an additional fee. These types of changes could include layout, style, and major changes requiring extensive reworking of the image. In most cases these charges will be no less than $25 and no more than $100 depending on the extent of the change.
Refund Policy
You can cancel the commission and will receive a refund. Funds may be deducted from the refund to cover my time for work already done. Upon approval of the finished portrait and receipt of the download link, the sale is final.
Portrait Completion Timeline
The time to complete a portrait can vary depending on several factors, such as the quality of photo reference, revisions requested, time waiting for approvals, etc. On average, most portraits should be finished and delivered within 7-10 days.
Delivery of Digital Art
Your portrait file will be uploaded to a Dropbox folder. I will email you a link for access to this folder. I will leave the Dropbox folder available for 2 weeks after completion, unless otherwise requested. If you require the file be sent again after this time period, I may have to charge a fee to cover my time spent retreiving the file and Dropbox storage fees.
If you have any questions, you can email me: blue@houseofbliss.com
