HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Melanieathene!!!!!!!!

*BIG BIG HUGS*

Hey everyone!

So I'm 1/5 of the way to making my bail goal of $500!! Thanks to everyone who's contributed so far!!

Remember, all of the proceeds go to Muscular Dystrophy research!

Edit: I am also offering $10 sketch commissions, to help raise money, so anyone who wants one, all of the money will go toward the MDA fund!

I'm participating in this year's MDA lock-up in Springfield, Missouri, and my bail has been set at $500! I have until September 1st to meet this goal. Please, if you can spare a buck or two, it all goes to Muscular Dystrophy research!

Every little bit helps!! Thank you so much!!

One of the NPs who used to work in our office contacted me about a week ago (well, closer to 12 days, really) asking me if I could do a portrait commission for her for her sister's anniversary. She wanted a portrait of her sister and her husband now, with a smaller portrait of them on their wedding day in the corner, on 11x14 paper.

( This is the kind of quality work I do for portrait commissions )

Okay, for the record: I'm giving up fast food for Lent. 0_o

thuri and I decided we should give something up, and frankly, it's about all we've eaten in the past few weeks. And both of us are awake right now with awful nausea and stomach cramping, an ailment from which I've been suffering a good deal more than usual as of late, and one for which I'm ( Read more... )

You know better than to sit down when you need to be cleaning. As soon as you do, all motivation goes bye bye.

Alas.
