I'm a few days away (at the most) from finishing the last of my commissions, so I thought I'd see if I could get a few more, since money's still kinda tight around here, and I'd like to be able to visit my family and friends at least once this spring before my boyfriend starts working almost every day and we lose our chance until August, which would suck because we haven't been able to visit since Fall.
So, for a little while, I'm taking $100 off my full color, large (about 8.5"x11", which is as big as I usually go right now) full background commissions.
Example 1
Example 2
These normally cost about $250, but for now they're $150. Something with a less complicated background, that would normally cost $200 (no example) would now cost only $100.
The only catch is, I get more or less complete artistic freedom, I can draw your character in whatever pose I want, in whatever environment I want, in my choice of either marker/multimedia or watercolor/multimedia. They will probably be in a jungle or on a funky alien planet, something organic and exotic, probably in the company of some funky dragons or other critters. I promise to draw your character as close to your references as possible, and not to draw them doing anything out of character/weird/whatever. Extra characters are $25 each, I will draw up to four characters in one painting. I don't charge extra for the random creatures I might throw in, they count as a part of the background.
I'm offering a similar deal on ACEOs, one character (usually waist or hip-up) plus a very detailed background for $30, normal price would be closer to $40 or so, depending on the complexity. Again, I get more or less full artistic freedom.
Example (older artwork)
Make sure you read my Commission terms, if you're not familiar with them.

Friday feature - Julian Bunker
It's been too long since I've featured the work of a personal friend, so this week's featured artist is photographer Julian Bunker.
His Favebook page is HERE for anyone who's interested.
Hanging out with a photographer really lets you see in person how much work goes into taking a good photo.
Not all of his work is black and white, these just happen to be some of my favorites:
Rhino Love by ~SlumberAwaySasquatch on deviantART
Balance by ~SlumberAwaySasquatch on deviantART
Up, Up and Away by ~SlumberAwaySasquatch on deviantART

crystal_fox ACEO trade
So I guess I lied when I said I wouldn't be uploading anything for a while, but I felt like crap today so I took a break from doing commissions to do some personal work, and to finish up my half of an ACEO trade with crystal_fox. Her character Amaze is feeding a random wyvern grapes because that was the first thing that came to mind for some reason.
Back to commissions tomorrow, got deadlines, y'all.

New art supplies! Whooooo!
The awesome thing about being an artist is getting way too excited about new art supplies.
I've been meaning to experiment with some new papers, so I purchased some blank ACEO cards from Julies_Art_Studio on Ebay, opening up a new box of art supplies feels like Christmas morning as a kid <3
I bought: 10 pieces of multimedia Artboard/Illustration board, 25 pieces of 140# Arches hot press (I've used Arches Cold press in the past and I love it, but I've never used any hot pressed paper), 25 pieces of 90# white Stonehenge paper, and another 25 in black.
This is an awesome way to sample lots of different papers relatively cheaply, for those of you who don't mind working small. They all come with UltraPro card sleeves, which is an awesome bonus because I'd never gotten around to picking any up myself, which is stupid because I do so much ACEO art :P
