I hope you find a taker, but just to put that in perspective:

$25 = 15 pounds = 2-3 hrs working in Mcdonalds

Drawing = 8hrs +

Drawing is fun, but in most circumstances it doesn't pay your bills, or feed you. This my friend is the real world lol

We don't subject ourselves to the horrors of retail, customer service and fast food staff for the joy of it...do you know what it is like to have people deliberatly throw things on the floor and watch as they expect you to clean it up?

I hate putting it in perspective. Makes me want to work at McDonalds!

I dont wanna sound like a big-shot, but I have taken on dozens of commissions over the last 5 years and I generally don't do artwork for less than $150.

However, I've seen dozens of decent art sites on the web listing commission rates at around the $25 mark, so it's not impossible to find an artist willing to produce stuff for a small budget. If you dont have any luck here Billy, I'd suggest scouting around the web for younger / amateur artists already familiar with commissions etc.
