# About me

I am a professional freelance artist/illustrator/instructor capable of working in a variety of media. A graduate of Chicago's American Academy of Art, I hold an Associate's Degree in Graphic Art and Design. I have worked for a variety of clients including Scott Foresman, Knowles China, Coldwell Banker, and Everyday Learning. I also do commissioned portraits and teach drawing classes in the Chicagoland area. Although I can handle virtually any subject matter with equal skill, my foremost specialty is portraiture and the human form.

The one on Indian Bob Johnson almost got me in trouble with you Tony
His Grand Daughter, My Daughter from his Son the RJ the III .
( message me for any more info ) lol

Is also is a Deviant Artist and you signed an original for her and Pat and Terry sent us it and a copy of their book, on November 9th, 2005.

My Daughter saw the Casey62 and told me to report Art Theft as it was posted under the Casey name not the artists name .

Luckily I looked through your art and realized you were the Actual Artist and have due Credit .
Thank you for doing such a great photo of her Grandfather . She looks so much like him .

And she is very Protective of Artists Rights . And Protective of her Grandfather and the Baseball Legacy.

Sorry for not getting back sooner:

It's great hearing from you! Casey62 is only my username on deviantart. Pat is a good friend of mine and he commissioned me to do the painting of Indian Bob for his book. I loved doing it, and am so glad you and your daughter approve of my work. Thank you so much for contacting me. All my best to you,

Sincerely,

Tony Crnkovich

Aah...I doubt it! I put my watercolour set away, discouraged at around age 10, after having gotten thoroughly bored of teary and blotchy ponds and seascapes

God, you are amazing

I was just wondering if you do commissions/requests? Because that would be really cool....

casey62 In reply to Turtledove21 [2012-10-29 03:13:04 +0000 UTC]

You're making me blush... thank you! Yes, I take on custom-made commissions, and my rates are very reasonable. Anything I do, I try to give it my best shot.

Turtledove21 In reply to casey62 [2012-10-29 10:48:50 +0000 UTC]

And what are your rates, then?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

casey62 In reply to Turtledove21 [2012-10-29 14:07:10 +0000 UTC]

That all depends on what you'd like done and how involved it is subject/media wise. As far as single person portraits go, b/w in pencil, 8"x10" is $25.00, 11"x14" is $50.00. For color in pastel and prismacolor, 8"x10" is $50.00, 11"x14" is $100.00. I can work larger, up to 18"x24", b/w is $100.00, color $200.00. My turn around time is generally a week for smaller jobs, 2 weeks on larger ones, all depending of course how busy I am. The shipping is either USPS, UPS, or Fed-Ex. I also sell prints, 8"x10" $5.00, 11"x14" $10.00.

Turtledove21 In reply to casey62 [2012-10-29 18:40:46 +0000 UTC]

Ah, I see Thanks! I don't know how much I can afford currently, but the prints are certainly within my price range. How do you conduct money transactions? I'm sure I'd be able to get one of my friends to help if you do it with paypal or something

casey62 In reply to Turtledove21 [2012-10-29 19:32:59 +0000 UTC]

Actually, I'd prefer payment by check or money order sent directly to me and I'd send you your order upon receipt. This is how I've always done it. Hope it works for you. Thanks again!
