FAQ

How do you create your pictures?
Everything on this site is digital. I use a 6x8 wacom intuos 2 and Photoshop CS 2.

Can I use your art for tags, icons, tubes?
I get asked this a lot. My terms of use for non-profit signature tag groups are as follows: Signature tags and icons made from images on this site's gallery page are fine. I don't give permission for my artwork to be used in tubes available for download, stationary or as web graphics. I ask that you do not overly alter the colors of my artwork. Also If the image you use is ever licensed to a company for reproduction you may be asked to remove the artwork at that time. Please have http://www.yanmei.net and/or my name Laura Y Law visible on the image. About the tubing ...its fine to remove my background and add your own to create a tag or icon. I just don't want paint shop pro tubes with my images available for anyone to download and use because that leads to image abuse and its harder to control who has permission to use the images and what they do with them...someone who downloads a psp tube may take it and use it on stationary, as web graphics or clip art.

Can I use your art for my website/rpg character/web set/etc?
No, sorry at this time I do not allow that.

Do you take free requests or commissions?
Do you do free requests? I do not do free requests but I do take commissions. Commission information: I accept commission work on a limited basis. I have a full time job so I am not be able to take rush orders. My base price for a digital painting one figure simple background is $400.00 this price includes an 11x14 print and print quality jpg file on CD. Additional charges will apply for multiple figures, animals and complicated backgrounds. For an additional charge print size can be increased up to 20x30.
