I've Hit My Fundraiser Goal
2 years ago
I have good news: I've hit my fundraiser goal! I've been adding my commissions to my Ko-fi counter, so the number reflects a more accurate combination of commissions, tips, and donations.
But anyway, yesterday's tally set me to 110% of my goal! The little bit of extra cushioning is gonna be very helpful too; I can put it towards some some other less immediately critical but still important expenses (like groceries, utilities, and kitten care). The vast majority of the funds raised were through commissions, but many people tipped generously, and a handful donated too. I'm very grateful for the community for being able to support me through a dire circumstance. I just love furries.
This week has kept me swamped. I got a little bit of artwork done, but most of it has just been administrative stuff, sorting out all these commission details. Since I'm through nearly all of that, I'll be moving on to streaming art again shortly. My plan is to spend the upcoming week doing composition work — creating rough sketches — as well as power through a couple of full paintings that are time-sensitive.
This is gonna be a winter just full of artwork!
Thank you again, everyone!

Way to pull up from that harrowing tailspin!
Oh, and I've just seen your site, and it's gorgeous and accessible and most importantly full of your delightful artwork, including some pieces I've not seen anywhere else! And that domain name, my word!
Wishing you to finally receive the ultimate reward for your hard work and exquisite creative vision,
and MAKE IT BIG on the art scene!
Your site is multilateral delight, although I have found the shuffled-together mix of colored works and black-and-whites looks a little disorienting, and it might be better to group them into neat categories, like you did for your commission samples. But that's just my preference -- I'm sure it's not a big deal for most of your clients and guests exploring your gloriously catified personal gallery!
