In the realm of digital art, commissions provide both artists and clients an opportunity to collaborate creatively. Recently, an artist embarked on an intriguing journey involving a series of commissions to transform a basic sketch into various artistic interpretations. This adventure highlights the contrast between personal artistic vision and professional skill while offering a glimpse into the process of commissioning art.

Starting Point: The Sketch

The journey begins with a somewhat crude sketch of a character.
