Thanks to all who bid. You'll be happy to know that we were able to raise $160.00. And due to the response we got from these, we are planning to do another this fall, so if you didn't win or didn't get the chance to bid, then you'll get another shot.

In the meantime, I'll be finishing my current batch of pin up commissions and opening a second when these are done. To those who have commissioned, thank you for your patients, as my current living environment does not allow me much time or room to get things done in a reasonable time frame. Back to business however...

Right now the goal is 1500 by January. This will hopefully be enough to fly me up to New York, and allow me a reasonable financial buffer until I can get a job there.

Again, I thank everyone for their help. With each contribution, your moving me closer to my goal and further away from a hostile and unhealthy living environment.
