Its been tough lately. fell into that trap of assuming that people would wanted to give me commissions. After all, there was some work being bought that wasn't as good as mine, right? The assumption everyone makes once in their life... Heh...boy was I stupid in assuming that people would just pay me for commissions just based on the little bit of stuff I have on my gallery here. I mean, yea I have some high quality stuff there...but that doesn't mean I'm gonna get offer after offer. Its sobering but its true. I'm not nearly as naive as I was when I joined before. Its just been frustrating as I always wanted to get a job doing what I love. And I love art.

Of course, seeing as that I'm still in college, I need to find a job regardless of what it is...lol. But...

I haven't been able to get a job despite trying for the whole summer. Its very hard to admit I need help, I've always been taught to earn my keep. Its only been through the kindness of my friends that I've been able to really not give up on myself as job offers haven't been coming and commissions haven't even been made.

I'm gonna bite the bullet and be honest:

I desperately need to earn some extra money to afford living expenses and especially groceries. Its been hard as I've been living on the kindness of others in regard to getting food, but I can't do that anymore, I feel too guilty. I would rather earn it than ask for it. So I'd appreciate it if anyone who needs any drawing or painting work done would hit me up.

My work is high quality and can be done quick. I can do a multitude of art styles and even can mimic one if I don't have a sample of it already in my gallery. I can do original art, or fan art. I can do humans, anthros, aliens, monsters, etc.

Prices are always negotiable in my opinion, so just tell me what you'd be willing to pay for said project. I'm not in the position to make demands on how much I get paid. I just need the money.

I only have two requirements:

1. I have to be paid either up front, or half before, half when completed. I'm no scam artist so there's no reason to believe that it will not be completed if payment is made prior to completion.

2. I'd need at least a $10 minimum on projects I'm assigned to. I'd normally say at least $20, but right now I'm doing half off of that hoping it'll get more responses.

Thanks everyone!
