Agreement and understanding of the Commission Artwork Compensation & Time Policy (click here to view) I understand and agree to the Commission Artwork Compensation & Time Policy

Commission Artwork Compensation & Time Policy

1. Compensation Structure

Artists are compensated per commissioned artwork at a flat rate, as outlined below. Each artwork type includes a suggested completion time for workflow efficiency, and a maximum time allowable to ensure the flat-rate pay remains at or above Ontario minimum wage ($17.60/hr).

Artwork type

Suggested Time per Commission

Maximum Time to Meet Minimum Wage

Flat Rate Compensation

Black & white – face only

30 minutes

51 minutes

$15 per completed artwork

Black & white – themed/full body

45 minutes

68 minutes

$20 per completed artwork

Colour – face only

45 minutes

85 minutes (~1 hr 25 min)

$25 per completed artwork

Colour – themed/full body

1.5 hours

102 minutes (~1 hr 42 min)

$30 per completed artwork

Artists must accurately log all hours worked on each commission.

2. Expected Workflow & Performance

These suggested completion times represent the expected duration for efficient production based on standard workflow and live caricature performance.

Artists are expected to complete commissioned artwork within these timeframes. Consistently exceeding the suggested completion time may result in:

workflow review
additional training
reduced or adjusted assignment volume/type
or reassignment from commission work if necessary

3. Time Authorization & Excess Hours Policy

Artists are approved to work up to the maximum allowable time per artwork, as shown in the table above.

Any time beyond the maximum allowable must be pre-approved in writing by management (text or email is sufficient) before the additional time is worked.

Time worked without prior approval beyond the maximum allowable is considered unauthorized.

Unauthorized hours:

may not be compensated unless required by law
may result in removal from commission assignments and/or performance review

Artists must not extend time based solely on personal pacing or stylistic preference without prior approval.

Note: Maximum allowable times ensure that flat-rate compensation never falls below Ontario minimum wage.

4. Compliance with Labour Standards

All hours worked must be accurately recorded and will be compensated in accordance with Ontario labour laws.

Compensation will not be reduced if additional time is required to complete a commission within the maximum allowable time. However, consistently exceeding expected timeframes without prior approval will impact eligibility for future commission assignments.

5. Summary of Expectations

Flat rate pay applies per completed artwork
Artists are expected to work within suggested timeframes for workflow efficiency
Maximum allowable times ensure pay meets or exceeds minimum wage
All hours must be accurately logged
No additional time is authorized without written pre-approval
Excessive or unapproved time may result in reassignment or performance review

Importantly, please record the time you spend drawing each of these caricatures. The time should align with the speeds in the Commission Artwork Compensation and Time Policy in the commission sign-up form above.
Finally, please email us if you have any questions.

When you complete the commissioned caricature:

Upon completion of the sketch, make sure to sign it!
Next, export the file or files in .png format, making sure that they're at 100% resoultion.
Please name each file roughly according to it's content, and make sure to include the 'COMMISSION ID' at the end of each file name. (EX: blackandwhiteface.1842951029, or 2colorthemes.1842951029)
