Heya, I'm Vortoxium!

A little bit about myself: I am from Germany, my birthday is on the 17th may and my favourite shape is the spiral. It actually plays part in the origin of my username, as my nickname is a portmanteau of vortex & toxic in addition to the suffix "um".

I dabble in all sorts of creative endeavours, such as art, music and game development. I also offer art commissions if there is interest.

Since this is my site you can find all sorts of relevant links related to me at the bottom of this page. Go check them out!

You want to commission me? Awesome! I mainly do character illustrations though, so keep that in mind. Below is everything important for you to know.

A: I am willing to revise parts of your commission as long as it is still in the sketching phase. Revisions in stages beyond that are not guaranteed unless I made an error.

Q: How long will it take for me to receive my artwork?
A: This depends on many different factors such as my health, the complexity of the piece and personal matters. I will let you know when I start working on your commission or if there are any setbacks. Below 2 months is my goal for completing any commissions.

Q: Can I repost the finished artwork on my socials?
A: You can as long as Credit is given to me & no alterations that remove my signature or watermark from the piece have been done.
