Two versions of the same picture, and both are free with no account and no watermark. The first has no background at all, which is the one to send your artist — but a phone or computer photo viewer set to dark will show black strokes on dark grey and it can look like nothing downloaded. If that happens, use the second one: identical characters on a plain white background. Either way you get the characters on their own — the square and the faint guide lines you see above are not in the file. Each character is 1000px, so a two-character download is 2000×1000, and the script and layout are the ones you picked.

Characters
Same in both
Layout
Rubbing mode: white on black, as a stone rubbing. The download is unaffected.
Without limit. Chinese has a modern mathematical word for this and an old Taoist one.
Before you commit
Choose with care無限 is modern and slightly technical. It turns up on phone plans and in maths textbooks, so it reads practical rather than profound.
At small sizesTwenty-one strokes over two characters. Moderate size or larger - the four short strokes at the base of 無 merge easily.
Cultural note無極 is the philosophical option: the limitless from which the 太極 emerges. For a reader who knows the term it carries real weight.
Meaning
Infinite; unlimited; without bound.
The everyday and mathematical word - unlimited data, infinite series.

What to do next
Pick the script and layout you want above, download the PNG, and send that file to your artist. Ask them to work from the file rather than redrawing the character freehand — that is where strokes go missing.
