By using my website or working with me on a project, you’re automatically agreeing to the terms below.

1. General Use of This Website

• All content on this site (images, text, graphics, etc.) is created by me unless stated otherwise. All of these assets are protected under copyright law (a copyright statement may be found in the footer of this website).

• You may not copy, reuse, or redistribute any part of this website or any of the assets included on this site (ie. images, texts, graphics, etc.) without prior written permission.

• You’re welcome and invited to browse, learn more about my work and practice, and get inspired.

2. Artificial Intelligence (AI) Clause

• As this website is hosted by Squarespace, I acknowledge that Squarespace may at times utilize its personal artificial intelligence (AI) systems or those of a trusted third-party to analyze and collect data, offer suggestions, market or otherwise promote, etc.

• I do not consent to any part of my website (artwork, images, graphics, words, etc.) to be used to feed or train any artificial intelligence (AI) systems.

• I do not consent to any artificial intelligence (AI) systems using any of my artwork, graphics, images, etc. to be used for the purposes of generative artificial intelligence (AI), sometimes known as “AI art.”

• I certify that all works and projects I produce and promote are mine, made by me, and are free from the use of generative artificial intelligence (AI).

3. Project Terms & Agreements

• Prior to the start of any project, a written agreement or proposal outlining the scope, timeline, and pricing must be discussed and signed by all involved parties.

• Once the agreement and proposal are approved and any initial deposits are submitted, the project will officially begin.

• If any changes need to be made along the way (ie. new ideas, extra revisions, added deliverables), the agreement and proposal will be updated to reflect said changes and re-sent to any involved parties to remain transparent and on the same page.

  Creative Rights & Ownership

  • As the artist, all early sketches, drafts, and unused ideas remain my intellectual property.

  • Once the project is completed and paid in full, you as the client will get a license to use the final production (ie. designs, illustrations, images, copy, etc.) for the purpose previously agreed upon.

  • The final deliverables may only be used as agreed upon and any additional use or recreation without written permission from me, the artist, is unlawful and prohibited.

  • I retain the right to display the finished work in my portfolio, on social media, or in promotional materials, unless agreed upon otherwise.

  What You’ll Provide

  • Any content, brand assets, and feedback must be sent to me on time so the project can stay on track. Any assets not initially listed in the proposal, but are later found to be needed, may be sent from the client or requested by the artist. Additional costs may be added to the final amount owed by the client depending on the situation and what is added.

  • Ensure anything you provide (ie. fonts, images, copy, etc.) is yours to use legally. In the event that permission for any assets sent to me from you was not given, I as the artist assume no liability and will not be held accountable.

  • Delays in communication may require the timeline to be pushed back beyond what was initially agreed upon.

  Revisions & Scope

  • The project includes the number of revisions listed in the agreed-upon proposal.

  • Extra revisions or major direction changes may require additional fees.

  • Anything outside the original scope will require a new estimate and/or an updated agreement.

  Payments

  • Work begins once the deposit or retainer is received. Unless otherwise agreed upon, the initial deposit will be equal to at least half the estimated total cost of the project.

  • The final deliverables (ie. files, drawings, graphics, photos, etc.) are delivered after the remaining balance is paid.

  • Payments are non‑refundable once work has begun, even if the project is abandoned by the client. If the project is abandoned by the client, compensation for any work completed before the next scheduled payment must be paid to me, the artist. If I, the artist, for any reason need to abandon the project, a partial or full refund will be issued, as determined by the circumstances surrounding the abandonment.

  • Late payments may include additional fees.

  Timelines & Delivery

  • When creating the proposal, I will provide you with an estimated timeline. This timeline may shift depending outstanding factors, including but not limited to how quickly you provide feedback, unexpected revisions, inclusion of additional assets, or genuine, personal emergencies including but not limited to funerals, medical emergencies, technology failure, or natural disasters.

  • Rush projects may come with an added fee.

  • Final files will be delivered in the formats agreed upon in the agreement (PNG, JPG, PDF, vector files, physical artwork, etc.).

  Confidentiality

  • I will keep your project details private unless you give me permission to share.

  • I will keep any of your personal information provided private unless given permission to share or legally required to disclose.

  • I may showcase the project, any of its deliverables, any of its initially sketches and ideation, etc. publicly once it’s been published or launched or you’ve approved it for portfolio use.

  Disclaimer

  • I am not responsible for legal checks, including trademark or copyright clearance.

  • I am not liable for printing issues caused by third‑party vendors, unless I am managing the production.

  • I am not responsible for any issues that arise from altering or misusing the final deliverables.

  Third-Party Vendors

  • If your project involves printing, web hosting, or other third‑party services, I’m not responsible for issues caused by those vendors unless I’m directly managing the process.

  • I will always recommend reliable partners, according to my knowledge and network, but final decisions and vendor relationships are up to you.

  Cancellation

  • If you cancel after the project has started, payment is required for all work completed up to that point.

  • Deposits and retainers are non‑refundable.

  • I reserve the right to cancel a project if communication stops, payment isn’t made, or terms are violated. Payments made prior to cancellation for any of these reasons will not be refunded.

  Agreement

  By moving forward with the project, you agree to these terms unless we’ve signed a separate contract that replaces them.

4. Updates to these terms

• I may update these Terms & Conditions occasionally.

• If you continue using the site or working with me after changes are posted, it means you accept the updated terms.
