Freebie Friday WEEKEND! Want free art? Get it here! Friday November 3rd - Sunday November 5th 2017 /// I AM SO SORRY FOR MISSING LAST FRIDAY!!!!

in art •  7 years ago  (edited)

It's that time of the week again! Time to request free art!

So step on up and make your requests!

For those of you wondering why there wasn't a Freebie Friday last week, there's an update at the bottom of the post.

From now until Sunday, November 5th, 11:59 CST I'll be taking requests


If you make a request and I ask you for more information regarding your request and you do not respond to me within a reasonable amount of time, I will likely not bother with your request. There are many people waiting for freebies that reply to requests for additional information.


I no long accept requests for the following during Freebie Fridays:


-Banners
-Cover Images
-Profile Pictures/Icons/Avatars
-Post and/or comment headers and/or signatures
-Drawing your photos (I will accept photo references of pets/animals/objects, but I will not draw the requested subject in great detail)
-Any other request that I deem too complicated/detailed to draw for a freebie (I will tell you if it's too complicated for a Freebie Friday request.)

If you want any of the above drawn, you will have to commission me, for money or an exchange of services, to draw them for you. I love giving away free art, I do. But I am also trying to make a living with my art, and accepting overly complicated and detailed requests for free art has been part of the problem with falling so far behind. (Other major contributors have been migraines, real life health issues, and other commitments that have paid me actual money -- though few and far between -- which is very much needed and several other various reasons I'd rather not go into.)

Apologies for the absence of Freebie Friday last weekend...


Some of you may have noticed that for the very first time since I joined Steemit back in May, there was no Freebie Friday last week.

That's because our cat Apollo was very near death and we spent a good chunk of the day at the vet. My husband got paid that day and by Sunday his paycheck had been spent before we'd bought all my medications or even groceries. So if you enjoy my art or what I'm doing here with Freebie Friday, please consider leaving a donation of some sort, because we still have a weak to go of living on nothing.

Apollo is slowly recovering. The vet bills may still increase. We're not sure yet. He has his ups and downs, but he's fighting and we're fighting right along with him. I'm not getting much sleep, as I'm staying awake to care for him. Despite being tired and weak, and having setbacks, he's a lively creature and difficult to care for. The moment he starts feeling better he wants to run around and play, which will use up his energy and make him very weak if I can't catch him and keep him contained quickly.
