Question: "What does it mean when you say in your Terms of Service that you retain the rights to the artwork?" 

Answer: “I retain full rights to the artwork” means that I, as the artist, still legally own the piece I created. Even though you commissioned and paid for the artwork, you're paying for a license to use it, not for full ownership of the image itself.

That means I can still:

• Post it in my portfolio or on social media
• Use it for promotional material
• Display it in art shows or prints (unless we agree otherwise)

You’re absolutely allowed to use it for personal purposes (like sharing it online, printing it for yourself, or setting it as a wallpaper), but you can’t resell it, claim it as your own creation, use it for commercial purposes, or alter it without permission.

If you ever need exclusive rights or commercial use, I can offer that through a custom agreement with an additional fee.
