OPEN FOR COMMISSIONS!

I specialize in fantasy illustrations with nature elements. I especially love painting creatures and animals in realistic but painterly style. My background is in traditional media, especially oil painting (spirit animals and pet portraits mostly) , but gotta say I so so enjoy digital painting more.

Each commission usually takes from a couple of days to weeks depending on the complexity.

Fully rendered artwork 250$-600$ Character/creature with simple or no background 200$+

Fully rendered environment 500$-850$

Process of commisioning art from me

  1. Send me email to joni@joniaikio.com about your commission. Tell me about the idea you have for the artwork. You also can send me some reference photos and tell me about what kind of style or vibe you want in the artwork. I will get back to you with any questions I might have and tell you the estimate about the timeframe for first sketch and final image.

  2. Send me 50% Payment upfront through Paypal to my address: joniaiki@gmail.com

  3. I will send you the initial sketch. You can ask for up to 2 iterations at the sketch phase. When you approve the first sketch or the later sketches I will start working on the final piece.

  4. While working on the piece, I don't send progress shots unless requested. When I am done I will send you a low res final image for approval. You can ask for some smaller change at this stage for free. Additional bigger changes I charge extra 30-100$. You will get final files when I get the other half of the payment.

  5. You will get - a high resolution, print ready, 300dpi JPG in RGB format (you can also request a TIFF, PDF or PNG in CMYK), a lower quality JPG for posting on socials and also a timelapse short video of the painting process.

  • You get full license to use the artwork commercially.
  • You can also license my existing art if you like. Just contact me with the image you would want to license and I will get back to you.
