COMMISSIONER BEWARE - LianeR by blackantlers
Obviously by looking at my front page I had a Hell of a time dealing with this person.
I don't know if this is better suited for some sort of community post but they put me through enough stress already and I really don't need that now.
I'm not sure what else to add other than that they are just troublesome and unpleasant.

I'm inclined to very respectfully disagree, at least in a way. I've worked with RF/Liane before, and she's the kind of customer who minds deadlines, and usually has a pretty clear idea of what she wants. She's firm and we've had a minor quibble or two in the 5+ pieces I've done for her, but she's never been a problem for me, and if you don't mind working with someone like that, she's a good customer.
But still, sometimes things don't work, and tensions are raised. Best to have a cup of tea, and keep going, or take some time to find your center and inspiration again. I know a bad experience can wear on the nerves.

Well, my mistake was not writing a ToS obviously, and I'm not the type to work with rather, erm, demanding and specific commissioners due to the nature of my work. Communication was a matter that was unclear beforehand, and likely didn't look at my gallery since my work is far from what they typically commission. I just don't have the time for unmindful and inconsiderate people. Either way, time to write a ToS. :P

A TOS is the ultimate this-situation-sucks saver, let me know if you need a hand or just need someone to look over it for loopholes. I've been freelancing since I was 13, so if there's a way to screw someone over, you can bet I learned from it the hard way.

Thank you for your heads up, and for encourage an open dialogue here to boot, especially considering past bad experiences.

Thanks for the beware. I don't get people like that, honestly. That's just downright harassment. The piece you did for them was beautiful in my opinion - I would have jumped with joy, had it been art I commissioned.
I hope you will continue uploading here though, just ignore them and move on. (I still enjoy your art, even if my activity and comments are nowadays rather scarce.)
