Meanwhile: Art Sale! (Prices reduced because I can stand turning kind people away ^^;)
Having a Sale, both for pre-con needs as well as the plethora of medical bills that are sneaking up on me. It's a fact and a sad state that I have to choose between rent or physical therapy this month.

Aside from possibly having genetic predisposition for 'The Owies', which will take another 6 weeks to discover, my neurologist unearthed nerve damage in my neck, ('c6 and c7 radiculopathies' for those who want to do the homework). This in conjunction with the sporadic arthritis keeps life interesting whilst I am newly 32. I should say I've been struggling with chronic pain in my hands and legs since infancy, so none of this is sudden or shocking but it is shitty. However, not being able to keep hold of an object, like coffee cup or a hair brush or say a pencil since November of last year, it's never been this shit before. PT (Physical Therapy) has been the only thing that's been putting a dent in the damage. For the first time in a long time I can begin to draw again. little bit anyways. While it's unfair that I should have to choose whether to have a roof over my head or working limbs with which to care for it, thems the breaks.

So, I've bet on myself instead, moving ahead with PT I hope that family & fans, watchers & friends can help see me thru. It's a hard gamble but it's all I've got.

tldr? Open for Commissions; Starting with DA, cuz I love you guys bestesst! Then next week open it up to LiveJournal, the following week open it up to tumblr.
1) I'll starts small w/ Chibi's something like
$25 $20 [tablet drawn] 
$35 $30 [traditionally drawn]
(Prices for individual, $5 for every additional Person/Character etc.)
2)With permission/blessing from Cassie, I'm offering up New Runes for sale; what this means is you can commission a rune of your liking or invention, for instance your lover's name or your pet's, or your pet's lover's name, what-have-you. THAT I will then research and translate into a shadowhunter rune  specific and to your liking.

These will not be official, sanctioned, Clave approved Runes but they will be personalized and yours. Maybe even upload them all into a glorious new sheet of tattoo flash. Who knows?

One Rune takes me One Day to design. Time & Effort = $80 $40 minimum.
(If you ask for something previous made but unreleased I will tell you 'No' but now you know why :D)

For fannish friends & friendly fans alike! I am limiting where I post to ONLY because it hurts to type. So if you want to spread the word thru your blogosphere of choice, have at it :salute:

Now I'm not going to be able to GO to the actual NYAF, but shot glasses sound awesome... though I'm trying to wonder if they're really shot glasses, seeing as you put the words into quotes, which makes me skeptical as to the actual ability to hold liquor lol

Either way, I approve.

You're kind of incredible. I thought you should know.

They are actual shot glasses. There is a neat material etching something or other that ~pinkimoon cuts out by hand. Things are then heated and stuff happens that binds them. Afterward the marks remain, looking variants of grey to white fog against the perfect clear glassness of it.

Last year she did, lotus blossoms and Alphonse's (from FMA) head. And another one I can quite remember. She came up with the idea of putting the runes to it because the more emboldened the design the better it takes. And the Rune designs are good like that. My mouth just watered at the idea of more shot glasses! yes, real. yes, awesome... if it happens.

:fingerscrossed:
