Hey guys!

My partner and I have had the worst luck ever when it comes to employment. I have gotten dead end after dead end. I've been literally exploited for free labor and recently bailed on pyramid scheme interviews. Even my partner's current work place is shutting down because the store isn't doing well, which leaves us both unemployed. He had a job opportunity working overnights at a gas station, but the management's behavior presented too many red flags for us to feel comfortable having him move forward with it.

I've been trying to support myself with art alone but the need to take in more work is not sustainable or responsible with the fact that I want and -need- to work on stuff I haven't even gotten to finish yet. I've been struggling to work on owed work because of how severe my stress has been.

We are really really struggling to get by with rent so I'm offering pre-orders of some vinyl stickers for those who'd maybe want to support us financially while we try and stabilize.

This is also a small little trial run of possibly doing a monthly sticker club in the future, cuz they're pretty fun and easy to make!

All profits go towards our current rent payment that's due, and future rent as we try to do our best to stabilize. The stickers themselves are set to pay what you want so if you'd like to support us further, you're welcome to set the price.

Thanks for your support, friends.

I chose to do a sea lion sticker because seeing their videos lately has bought me a lot of laughs and comfort.
And I chose to do a zangoose for the second as it's my lovely partner's favorite pokemon.

You can pre-order here.

Firey like an ember.

Borzois are one of my favorite breeds to draw and for good reason. They're so angular and long!

Thank you for supporting me, Hannah!

I am still open for commissions like these and more. You're welcome to DM me for a quote!

I don't know a single Italian Greyhound that hasn't had a pair of PJs on especially as the cold weather rolls in. Guppy here is no exception, sporting his fall themed attire!

A completed commission that I'm very proud of. Thank you Hailey for trusting me to draw your pup!

Portrait commissions of two lovely Beauceron.

The Beauceron is one of my absolute favorite breeds and I was overjoyed to be able to draw two of them recently, each with differing personalities. I love trying to capture the personalities of individual dogs I work with.

Wanted to draw my service dog, Falkor, who was named after the luck dragon in The Neverending Story!

The noble and beautiful Kishu Ken - named after the Kishu region. They were predominantly used to hunt deer and boar.

"In early years, Kishus came in different colors, but the white-coated Kishus showed superior qualities and therefore were used more often for breeding. "

I'm trying to refine my art in a way where I can capture the moods and atmospheres I want, but not need to implement a crazy amount of time consuming detail. These studies have been helping me make a lot of progress in both defeating burn out with art and achieving certain moods and atmospheres that I've always wanted to!

Recently left my job where I was being overworked and it really gave me a lot of time to get right back to my other passion.

I've been getting back into the groove of drawing and it's been wholly positive for me! Did these two pieces trying to work with palettes. I love challenging myself to work with a scheme.

I'll be getting back to pieces I need to do as of today!
