Hi all! Just a quick update, since I'm moving soon and starting a new job I'll be pretty busy this upcoming month and I don't think I will have time to take any new commissions or trades. If you are interested in my art, you're welcome to write to me anyway, I just probably won't be able to start work until sometime in October. I'll send another update when I'm settled and ready to do art more regularly again!

I've never really had an online presence before, but only a couple months after I start uploading my silly little marker sketches 33 whole human beings have liked my work enough to subscribe to see more in the future!?? And even more people see every piece I make! I feel like people don't really think about the actual number of people behind views and watchers and stuff. Some people get thousands or even millions which is just insane, but even 30 would fill a room!

I know I still have a very small following on here compared to a lot of people, but it's way more than I've ever gotten just drawing in my sketchbook and it feels so good! Thank you all for the support, I've been having a lot of fun making art to post and see peoples' reactions :) Every like and comment touches my heart! The couple of people I've been working with on commissions/gifts/trades have been so supportive and lovely, I've really been enjoying interacting with the community in this way! (Quick reminder for everyone that I do trades if anyone wants to :3)

I'm starting a new job at the end of September and although it's pretty much a dream job, I'm a little sad at the thought that I'll have less time for art. I really hope I can keep practicing, learning, having fun, and making some cool stuff to show you guys! Though I've been doing art for my whole life, I feel like I'm just beginning my journey in creating things to share with the world. Hopefully there will be much greater things to come for many years in the future! Thanks for being with me from the start <3

Hey! I've gotten a couple more watchers since I announced this art raffle, so I thought I'd post this to make sure everyone knows :) Thank you all so much for the support, I'm so happy with all the positive reactions I've gotten to my art so far and look forward to growing in the future!

Raffle here:
https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/10925807/

To celebrate my first 20 watchers, I'm doing a raffle for a free sketch! Just comment below and I'll select one person randomly (or maybe two if I feel like it) to do a free marker sketch of their character. Anyone is welcome to enter, if you're not already watching me I'd appreciate it though! Deadline for entries is midnight EST 8/10

COMMISSIONS ARE OPEN!

I'm new to the site and to doing commissions, so for the first couple I'll be figuring out how things work and what the etiquette is. Things will be mostly case by case, and this info (including pricing) will likely change in the future. If you have an idea not included in the options below, ask and I'd be happy to see if we can work something out!


Here are some basics:

COLOR MARKER SKETCH (flat colors/partial shading) or FULLY SHADED PENCIL SKETCH
- Headshot/bust: $15 USD
- 1/2 body: $25 USD
- Full body: $35 USD
- Additional character costs the same as another piece minus $5.
- Additional sketches cost the same as another piece minus $5.
- Sorry, no backgrounds right now except maybe a single color wash.

I'll draw any type of character - anthro, feral, insectoid and weird creatures. I've never done NSFW art but may be willing to try for an upcharge. Happy to draw gore and violence. Not comfortable with some kinks, I don't have a list compiled so just ask.

CREATURE CONCEPT ART
- $20-$50
- Give me a prompt (animals/organisms/concepts to hybridize, ecological niches, anatomical features, any other ideas) and I'll go wild and sketch a creature for you. This will include pencil sketches, but if you want a color marker sketch I can add that on too once the design is sorted out.


MORE INFO:
- I will need payment before I begin work. Payment right now is through Venmo, Ash-Welch-3
- I reserve the right to decline any requested commission, though I will do my best serve you!
- I reserve the right to cancel the commission at any stage for any reason; you can also cancel anytime. If you have already paid, you will be refunded.
- Commissioned work is only for personal use (i.e. not for resale), and I must always be clearly credited as the artist. My signature may not be removed.
- I may post commissioned work on other sites or use it for self promotion. The commissioner will be clearly credited.
- Since most of my work will be traditional, I can mail you the physical piece if you like! There will be additional cost for shipping & processing.
- It will probably take me up to one week to complete a commission.
- Don't be afraid to ask questions! I am friendly :)
