Welcome to Inkmato's F A Q
Hopefully some of your questions are here with clear direct answers!°｡⋆ ☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★ ⋆｡°"HOW DO I REQUEST ART?"
You start by going to "Contact & Follow" to inquire a request. We will hand-select who we want to draw & whether or not we can get around to it. We will display on our site when requests are open & closed."DO YOU TAKE NSFW REQUESTS?"
We ask that you refrain from asking for 18+ material. Please, do not ask for adult-rated content; if it is not safe for ALL audiences, then it is NOT safe for us."DO YOU ACCEPT PRIVATE REQUESTS?"
Here at Inkmato, we do not offer the option for private requests. We wish to reserve the right to share all content drawn with our viewers. Since we do not take commissions, we rely on advertisement (views) to showcase print sales & donations specifically."DO YOU ACCEPT TIPS FOR REQUESTS?"
Absolutely! Some folks do not like the idea of obtaining free art & wish to pay something forward. If you feel the need to tip, visit the front page & click "Donate". As of now, we only have Paypal for online transactions. We are looking into Venmo & Ko-Fi for future updates!"ARE REQUESTS SKETCHES OR FULLY COLORED?"
All requests are fully colored & measure at 4320 x 5400 @ 300 DPI (or 8.5 x 11 in.)."DO I GET TO CHOOSE BETWEEN A PORTRAIT, HALF, OR FULL BODY?"
Being that the drawing is not a paid commission in any form, the artist will choose what they feel looks best for the character(s) you want drawn. This also applies to our raffle winners."DO YOU RECORD YOUR ART AS YOU WORK?"
We are currently looking into OBS for recording art. As for now, we compile progress screenshots via Photoshop & carry those images into CLIPCHAMP. We make sure to include the full layout of Photoshop with layers included so you can see the art being worked on in (somewhat) real time."DO YOU TAKE COMMISSIONS ON THE SIDE?"
We do not take any form of commissions. Everything we do at Inkmato is based on requests, prints & donations. The artist stated that commissions feel like a burden compared to requests. With requests, the artist can work freely without the stress that comes with paid commissions. There is less stress doing it this way by cutting out harsh deadlines & troll buyers that come with paid commissions."HOW DO I CREDIT INKMATO'S ARTWORK?"
Once a drawing is given to you, we ask that you credit Inkmato by directing your viewers to our website or social media. Uncredited reposting/uploading will result in one of our helpers to kindly ask you to remove it if you are unable to credit the image properly."HOW CAN I ORDER A PRINT?"
We currently do not have a store officially linked with our site to sell prints, but we do have the option to inquire directly for prints. Visit the front page & click "Request Artwork" to read the PRINTS section. Once you have decided on an image you wish to have printed, visit "Contact & Follow" on the front page. Some of the sports art is off limits to sales (as mentioned in the "Request Artwork" tab)."WILL THE PRINT COME SIGNED?"
Yes, all prints come signed by the artist (free of charge)."HOW CAN I PARTICIPATE IN ART RAFFLES?"
Inkmato will graciously host raffles from time to time; they will be hosted either on Instagram, Twitter (X), Discord, Bluesky, or streaming services such as Twitch & Kick with partnered streamers. Sometimes we do raffles at our convention booth (with prior consent of the convention event holders). Contests may last from minutes, to hours, or up to a month. Once a winner is selected, the person has up to seven days to hand over any references of the character they wish to have drawn. If the participant fails to forward a reference, a different person will be drawn at random."HOW ARE WINNERS DECIDED IN YOUR RAFFLES?"
Winners are picked through a number of ways. One way is through Twitch or Kick raffle bots; those who enter, randomly get selected during the hosted event. Another way is over Discord. The channel hosting the raffle event will randomly select someone who entered by clicking the icon hosted by the plugin. Third option is over X or another social platform; we use the "Wheel of Names" Google wheel selector to pick our winner. Lastly, at conventions we typically do it traditionally on paper in a jar with a name & email attached for get hold of the winner. Of course, we cannot host raffles at conventions without prior consent of hall event organizers!"HOW MANY PEOPLE HELP OUT INKMATO, THE ARTIST?"
There are currently three people who take the time to help the artist with advertisements & website editing. We also take the time to read over (most) emails & direct messages to counter bots, spam & other possible junk that we feel the artist does NOT need to interact with. This allows the artist to focus primarily on the art while spending time with their family. The artist uploads their work & we do the rest! If we feel a request inquiry is safe, the artist will be noted to read that specific email or direct message to handle the process from there.

Welcome to the request page!Unfortunately, requests are backed up as of September 7th, 2025. We estimate that requests will be back up around November 1st, 2025. Please refrain from emailing samples of your character(s) until this date or otherwise noted publicly.Requests in queue: 7PRINTSPrints are currently available!

N O T I C E
°｡⋆ ☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★ ⋆｡°The Tegaki-E drawn sports art is strictly prohibited for print sales due to rights usage. The only one we can legally print & ship is the 11 x 17 Fauvism portrait, as it was not referenced by one particular given photo. These portraits were a one-time deal & specifically drawn for sports articles. We humbly reserve the right to respect the photographer's (legal) wishes to not duplicate without authorization. They are, however, printed as part of the portfolio we carry around to conventions to show folks what we are capable of drawing. Sorry in advance to anyone wanting prints of the athletes!

Hello! My name is Sylvia. I began my art journey in 1997. I have been working on & off
professionally since 2009. In my early career, I drew sports art for NHL & NFL reporters,
some which made it to major sites such as The Washington Post. Between 2013 to 2023,
I had to take a hiatus to caretake for my family, thus lost a lot of my ability to draw what I
once could. I have recently enrolled in Marc Brunet's Art School Program to hone my
skills once more. I am also currently in a mentorship program with Conquest Publishing to one
day re-enter the professional world of art. I am looking forward in working commercial
once more! I am hoping with love & support, you all will help me reach my goals to one day
become a positive art influencer within the art community. I would love to one day help teach
people how to draw step by step & even provide merch for my fans, family & friends alike! With
your support, anything is possible!Thank you, I look forward in working with you soon!
