Hey folks!  My boss decided to grow horns today and she cut down the hours that I work to avoid providing me with health care, which I desperately need.  The cut in hours will cost me roughly $300.00 a month. Yes, it does suck.

But there's more!  Here's how you can help, and get something original and just for you in the process.  I'm taking commissions -- just a handful for now -- for an original 8x10 painting for $60 each.  You write me with your name, what you want on your 8x10 and I'll hop to it.  Bear in mind that it could take some time, but that's only because I want to do the best job I possibly can.

My limitations are: realistic portraits, original characters, Monet-style flower stuff.  If you have any questions or requests, let me know and I'm sure we can work it out.

Here are the commission slots.  I'll write your name in as soon as you send me the request, but if possible, I'd like the paypal payment within 15 days.  Hopefully that works for everyone.

Okay, here we go!

1. Ashley (thing1thatiam)
2. Becca - PAID IN FULL
3.
4.
5.

I can also take a few commissions for Claymates, up to 3 inches tall at $9.00 a piece.  Tell me what you want and I'll put you down!  If you've already asked me for a Claymate, no worries, I'm still working in it!

1. Suzanne (captainblackrose)
2. Glory
3. Crystal (mrs.explosion)
4. Zannid - PAID IN FULL
5.

Also, if any of y'all feel like checking out my shop to give me a boost, here it is: [link]

Thanks everyone!

Hello darlin'. I was looking over your comments and wanted to check on a few things. So, it's okay if we want fan art claymates and also, if you claim a slot you can ask for more than one? If so, put me down for a slot.

Howdy! I can TRY to do fan art for both things, but I warn you now, I'm not very good at it. As far as Claymates go, I can do it, but be warned: if your figure is a two legged humanoid thing, it will most likely look more cuddly and round than the original is intended to be. That's what happens when you work small and you're as much a clod as I am.

And yes, certainly you can order more than one thing per slot, as long as it's cool that each thing within said slot is $9.

Within those thingies, you're all good to go!

Aw, but you see, I love the cuddly round-ness of your work. Honestly, I've worked with clay on a tiny scale, and I think you do wonderful. The only way I could ever get detail at 3" would be to constantly re-mold the same figure a bunch of times so that shrinkage does the work.

And that is totally cool with me! I figured it out and I will be a-okay til my parents pay me back. =3

Okay, so I would like Megara from Disney's Hercules: [link] [link] Utena from Revolutionary Girl Utena in her Rose Bride Dress: [link] [link] [link] and a random mermaid of your design. All either floor length dresses, or no legs for your convenience. :)

Just let me know what shipping to 32780 would be. Oh, and my name is Suzanna.

Cool! You're on the list. Shipping shouldn't be more than a few bucks, but it's included in the commission price, so your total would just be $27. Thanks for the order!

Seriously? Dang girl, I think you undercharge. Unless, of course, you have magical fairies doing the work for you. That would be a different story.

Oh, and I'm assuming it will take a while for you to get to mine? We're moving on the 25th and I was planning on giving the new address with the payment. Just let me know and I'll send payment right over!

Sure, new address will be fine! I'll email you to be sure before I send anything.

Hi there! I posted photos of your clay figures, so let me know what you think! Also, which address shall I send these to? If you want to send it in a note, I'll ship these out right away.
