I don't understand...

This person is an artist - who needs photos of animals as references. He/she will be painting your animals (if he/she chooses) in ARTWORK, not just a photo. He/she will put their hard work and talent into it - certainly not something I'd expect for "free."


Just my opinion, as an artist myself, and with many friends trying to make a living with their art. I wouldn't expect someone to give me a hand-out just for using my photos are a reference.
