doing art this week.
Posted 11 years agoi'm so sorry for the big delay in getting art done.
i have been working nonstop both at my job and with my friend's horses.
so yeah. :)
i will be doing a bit today, and finishing up this week.
got a big day tomorrow, so i may not have much progress on that day.
but i will be drawing until about 5:30 tonight.
then will have tomorrow off to spend with friends.
then will resume at about 7:00 a.m. friday morning and will work all day.
potentially saturday as well, depending on my family's plans.
so yeah. :) just updating for y'all.
also, 
, myself, and my girlfriend are getting into making paracord stuff!
if anyone is interested, let us know!
please go through porter though for paracord commissions, not me. :)
don't want to get everything mixed up!
friend's horse having seizures. PLEASE HELP!
Posted 11 years agoguys. i went over to a friend's house last night to help her with her horses.
and one of them ended up having a massive seizure. it was really disturbing to watch.
he was fine, running around the pasture with his buddy, excited about dinner time.
but when his buddy stopped running and playing, he didn't. he kept running.
and running.
and running.
and running.
and running.
and running.
to the point where when he finally DID stop, he was shaking and trembling all over.
his left side was super tense and he acted like touching him hurt.
then, out of no where, he started spinning.
he sat down on his right hind leg and just spun in circles.
he finally got out of the tight circle and started running in large circles.
and he was grunting and whickering the whole time.
his eyes were wide and he acted very confused, like he didn't know where he was.
he didn't show any "aura" beforehand like most do before having a seizure.
it just kinda.. happened..
nonetheless, it was very sad, and my friend is freaking out.
this horse is her BABY. he means the world to her.
and i hate seeing her so upset.
so i am taking commissions to help her with vet costs.
because god knows she can't do it on her own.
we have been doing research and talking to vets in the area.
they all agree it was a siezure, but we haven't figured out what caused it.
he'd never done it before, and according to my friend, hasn't done it again.
so please guys. if you need a worthy cause to commission for, make it this.
all proceeds will be passed straight to my friend for her horse.
none of it stays with me.
needless to say guys. this is serious.
i am willing to negotiate ANY commission.
period.
whatever you want.
i will do it.
just please help me help my friend and her horse. :/drawing today! commissions open!

Posted 11 years agoso i was digging through my art box today..
and realized i have a bunch of stuff that i don't use.
like some colored ink pens. haven't used those in forever.
or my old tablet. (old school wacom bamboo fun)
or like 55+ prisma markers of all colors.
or an old "fur-piled" book that i dont think i have ever read.
or some erasers. can't remember the brand. (starts with an "f")
would anyone be interested in buying any?
all markers have been tested and work great, like new.
erasers have never been used. just took up space in my art box.
old tablet still works, i just don't have the software or drivers anymore.
i will post some pics later.
gonna organize and sort the markers.
please let me know if you want anything!obligatory "where to find me" journal.

weasyl: stankbossdobie
inkbunny: stankbossdobie
you can also find me bouncing around downtown chattanooga. :)national coming out day.
Posted 12 years agoso apparently today is "national coming out day".
so i offer my ears (and they're pretty big ears..) to anyone who is having trouble accepting themselves, accepting someone else, or even having trouble coming up with a way to "come out" to their families about being gay.
i know how it feels to desperately want to tell everyone.
to just scream it from the rooftops, and proudly express that i am in love with a girl.
but i also know how it feels to be in a family or situation or culture that discriminates and bullies the LGBT community.
so please, if you feel like you NEED to talk to someone about your feelings, i am opening my arms and ears.
i will GLADLY talk to you about how you feel.
i will GLADLY offer some advice, and i will happily share my experiences.
i live in the "bible belt", as we like to call it.
i am in chattanooga, tn. full of christians, bible thumpers, and gay-haters.
being openly gay and a dyke in this area can be difficult, but i just give a big middle finger to those who choose to be assholes to me and hate on my lifestyle.
i didn't CHOOSE to be gay. they CHOSE to be assholes.
again, i am opening up my notes, my comments, my email..
if you need to talk about anything in the topic of coming out, please contact me!
note me. comment below.
my email is stankdobie311[at]gmail.com
i will be online all day.
if you need to talk, i am very much open!
there is also an organization called "Project: OUT" that is open to troubled gays.
their email is ProjectOUT[at]hotmail.com
send your emails!
you are not alone.
you are all loved.
