SAMPLE: (a) I WILL CONSIDER YOUR BID ONLY IF YOU DRAW AND SUBMIT your drawing of Thomas Edison and his work. (if you are good and fast, it shouldn't take long at all). you can take a picture from the net or redraw what's shown in the attached sample.

(IF you have previously communicated with me and submitted a sample based on my attachments and requests, you don't need to submit an other sample – since I know your work. just submit your bid) (I WILL NOT LOOK AT THE SAMPLE YOU DREW FOR SOMEONE ELSE). (b). please study the two page illustration I have attached to the project .... based on the text in the illustration, draw a “ROUGH SKETCH” of what you think the illustration shall look like. (I don't mind even if in some ways, your sketch looks similar to the sample. I just need to have an idea of your creatively and quality). PLEASE SEND PRIVATE MESSAGE, AND DO NOT POST YOUR QUESTIONS AND BIDS ON THE PC BOARD ... THAT MAKES THINGS CONFUSING, AND DIFFICULT TO TRACK. THANK YOU FOR YOUR BID.
