About Faye
Faye is an online moniker shared with my character/virtual avatar. Along with my girlfriend, Violet, I am a freelance digital artist and my commission work supplements our income. All of my art is drawn by hand on an iPad using Apple Pencil, and I do not use AI for any part of my process.I have been taking commissions for over 15+ years, and I pride myself on being someone who is patient and works well with others to give their piece the individual attention it deserves. You can find my art archive on Tumblr, all though much of it has been lost to time.I have lived coast to coast across the states, but currently I live together with my girlfriend of over a decade in a modest rural town where I act as a cat mom and creative assistant, helping her run her online virtual brand behind the scenes.
Mercurial
Mercurial is a virtual clothing & accessory brand by my partner, Violet Mercury. All products are 100% original handmade by her and completely AI-free and strive to be unisex & LGBT inclusive.I serve only as a creative assistant & customer service representative for her storefront. You may click the link below to learn more or reach out to me if you have any feedback.
Second Life
Second Life is a long-time hobby of mine, there I shop, play, build, and take photographs for fun. You can follow me on Primfeed to see what I'm up to!
Gallery
Here are some of my recent works! For work dating back much older, you can try browsing my archive.
Commission Information
If you are interested in ordering custom art from me, this page has everything you need to know. Please keep in mind that I am not seeking any projects at this point in time, so unless it is about a commission please do not reach out to me with other work offers.
Before Ordering
Please view my Commission Form to determine what you are ordering is available and be sure to review my legal Terms of Service statement before submitting an order. If you are trying to contact me to ask a question, please review my FAQs to ensure that your question hasn’t already been answered.
How to Order
If it is available in your country of residence, I highly recommend submitting your order through Artistree- it handles payment and information in a streamlined way that ensures both buyer & seller protection.
If you prefer to reach out to me directly, you can send an e-mail to [email protected] at any time for inquiries related to my commissions, including pricing, processing, availability, etc.If you’re submitting an order manually, please follow the E-mail Form outline I have provided. It makes it much easier to communicate your needs to me, and for me to keep your order organized on the back end.
Keep in mind that I have a limited number of slots that I open each round of commissions, so if your order total exceeds that, I may have to decline your request. You can view my Current Queue at any time to view my activity and availability.
I highly encourage asking me directly before submitting an order if you have any questions or need clarification on something beforehand. Please allow 1-3 business days for a response when doing so.I have a chronic pain condition which affects, among other things, the joints in my hands, causing me to work slow some days. Your patience & grace is appreciated.Thank you!

Commission Pricing
I have a scaled pricing model depending on the approximate amount of time spent on each commission type. Pricing begins at $25 and usually do not exceed $100-200 range.
Content & Subject Material
I am an anime/kemono artist first and foremost, my work will resemble the style as shown in the examples below- I do not work with "other styles." Although I am relatively flexible, there are a few subjects I do not feel confident in offering to my commissioners, therefore I highly recommend finding another artist if you have needs that fall outside of my own capabilities.
I do not accept requests that include the following:
Photo-realism, Photo-manip/edits, GFX/Graphic design, Logo/Tattoo design, Video/Animation, Graphic Violence, Ideologically sensitive/hateful, Stolen/"heavily referenced", Generative AI, Live-stream/screen-share, Time constraints/deadlines

Section VI. Conclusion
Section I. Payment & Processing
• Payment is required up front & in-full. I do not accept payment plans/IOU or exchange for goods/services.• All prices are listed in US Dollar ($) amount. Exchange rates, taxes, & fees may be applied.• All commissions are done in the order they are submitted & processed within a 30-day time period. Wait times are usually 1-3 business days, or up to 7-days for very large orders, once your slot is reached.• I generally do not work with time constraints, as a general rule of thumb if you need something before a certain date it is recommended that you order 30-days prior to your anticipated due date. If you need a rush delivery it must be discussed before payment. Fees may be applied (no sooner than 48-hr delivery).• Once payment is processed, I do not allow changes to the order. Please double-check that all your information correct before you send payment, as I will only correct errors that are made on my behalf.• All sales are considered final. Refunds are only available if there is failure to deliver your order within the 30-day time period from initial payment date. Fraud will be reported as such.
Section II. Artist Rights
• I have the right to decline or turn away clients for any reason.• I am under no obligation to actively communicate with my clients about subjects unrelated to their commission.• My artwork is never to be used commercially without my full, prior consent. Social media profile use for small business is OK, however if you are planning to print/reproduce my work in any way (real or digital) it must be discussed beforehand.• I do not waiver any rights to my artwork unless signed agreement under contract; if I feel my work is being exploited I have the right to protect my work as I see fit.
Section III. Buyer Rights
• Your commission may be uploaded to personal page, gallery, social media, etc. as long as proper credit is attributed. ("Faye M." or "Faye Mercury")• Link back to my website (www.fayem.art) or applicable social handle (@fayem / @FayeMercury / @mercurialfaye) is appreciated.• I allow modifications and remixes, by or on behalf of the rightful owner of any commission, as long as it is done under fair use. I do NOT allow the use of generative AI to be used on my works under any circumstances.• I do not allow my artwork to be resold, reproduced, or redistributed, with the only exception being character resale markets. If this applies to you, read the section below.
Section IV. Custom Character Designs
• When a transaction is made, either by commission or adoption sale, I am not forfeiting legal ownership of my work, nor am I contractually signing over copyrights. Understand that when you pay for a character, you are paying for the right to use the art & design, not for legal ownership of the art & design itself.• It is my personal commitment to the buyer to uphold this in a fair way, however I maintain the right to protect and use my work as I see fit. I will only act in self-defense to protect my work in egregious cases of misuse or blatant disregard of my TOS.• As with all of my work, I do not allow commercial use/re-distribution or re-production of my artwork/designs without my prior consent. There is one exception as it relates to custom character designs, stated below.• You may include my artwork of your OC in a one-time OC sale, as long as it is done so legitimately and you do not falsely inflate the value, i.e. "flip" the design. You do not have to ask, I do not track character designs, it is understood that this is a trust system between artist & customer at the time of payment.• I cannot anticipate or enforce third-party involvements, such as character re-sale or ownership disputes. Please instead take it up on the platform where the sale occurred. I act ONLY when it is necessary to protect my work, and I will not become involved with personal disputes.
Section V. Regarding AI
My art is 100% created by hand without any use or assistance from AI, in Procreate for Apple iPad using Apple Pencil, aside from Krita occasionally for strictly formatting purposes. Both Procreate and Krita are explicit about the fact that they do not include AI in their software.Due to fraudulent cases, from here on, if you for some reason you have the false notion that I use AI, then you are accepting responsibility for working with me, even if you are under the false impression that I use AI, and I am not responsible for your undue suspicion or buyer's remorse.
Section VI. Conclusion
You are paying for my TIME and my SERVICE, as presented on my page. Your product's results will be a combination of YOUR DESCRIPTION & REFERENCES, and will reflect the EXAMPLES SHOWN ON MY PAGE. If you are not okay with that, DO NOT WORK WITH ME.I am very understanding and want my clients to be happy with the end result. I can usually provide 1-2 small fixes for no additional cost, but communication goes both ways. If you do not reach out to me, or are asking unreasonable demands that extend beyond your purchase, I cannot help you.You can contact me any time at [email protected] for inquiries related to my art & commissions. I highly encourage asking me directly before ordering if you have any questions or need clarification on something. Thank you!
Frequently Asked Questions
This section covers my Q&A. If you have any questions that have not been answered here yet, please reach out to me by using my Contact form or by sending an e-mail to [email protected] and I will get back to you as soon as I am able. Thank you.
Q: What tools do you use to create your work?
A: All of my newer works are made using iPad 7 & Apple Pencil + Procreate. Some older pieces may have been done with PaintTool SAI + Wacom Intuos tablet. I am not a traditional artist, but I do occasionally enjoy coloured pencils, alcohol markers, & watercolours.
Q: How long does it take you for one piece of artwork?
A: It can take me 30 minutes or multiple hours depending on the scale and quality of the work; total work times are reflected in the final price. If you are currently waiting on a commission, you can check the status on this board. Usually it takes 1-3 business days to complete a commission once it is started, depending on how full my queue is.
Q: Can you create something for me based on this photo?
A: It depends. I do not work with photo-realism so I am not the artist for you if you are looking for someone to create a painting based on your photo. However, I am happy to draw a cute cartoon version of you or your pet using a provided photo, just please be aware there is limitations.
Q: Will you design a logo/tattoo for me?
A: No, sorry but I am not confident in my graphic design skill in a way where I would want to do a logo/tattoo design for money.
Q: Will you design merch for my brand?
A: We can talk about it, but I will require details about your brand. I am not a graphic designer by trade, so there is a chance I may not be able to fulfill your request.
Q: I bought character artwork from you, can I re-sell it to include in a one-time character sale?
A: Yes. You may include my artwork to re-sell if you are bundling a character together in a one-time character sale, as long as you do not falsely inflate the price, re-produce, or redistribute my work. I do NOT keep track of character permissions, and you do not have to ask me. Character markets are a trust system and failure to abide will result in warning, and in some extreme cases blacklisting and/or re-purposing of my art/designs.

They are cheaper to produce than commissions, and some may even be unique.
