June 3, 2012 11:05 pm Stumbled across this. It's unfortunate that in the comments under an article about etiquette, I find you discussing this issue with everyone except the person you should be discussing it with: me. First off, have your friend email me at denniscaleroart@gmail.com. I recall him professing to like the piece. I'm not psychic, and I've done pieces that I've not been happy with and the recipient has loved it. The opposite has happened as well. In terms of this article, this is not the way to handle this situation. Always get the email address or website of any artist you commission from. It's natural to not be sure how you feel about a piece when you get it. Write the artist and politely discuss your concerns. You should not ask for a refund off the bat, unless the artist offers it first. Ask if he or she would consider redoing the piece. Most smart artists I know, and I consider myself one, charge what they charge in part because they know every once in a while you're going to get a dud. This is art, not widget manufacturing, they don't all come out the same.
