I have some experience spriting Mario and friends.
Over the last 6 years I've been working on a game called "Mushroom Patrol: Midas Machine". I've basically made 95% of the custom graphics in the game so I have some decent experience with what you are asking for.
As far as availability, I've recently been laid off from one of my jobs so I have some free time while I look for a new job. I work at my other job all day on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, so unless I have something going on, I'm generally going to be free Sunday-Wednesday.
A few more examples showing some tiles and animations and what not.
