[CLOSED] commissions for a good cause
4 min read
update 4-18: this particular commission offer is now closed. commissions in general are still closed too, as well as requests. not sure when commissions or requests will be open again.
____________________________________________________
i have another person in need to tell you all about, so it's different than the person i mentioned in the previous journal. this isn't something i randomly came across on the internet; i learned about this person through someone from my church. the person in need is Meg and she has chronic lyme disease, and she has suffered for 17 years. the treatment she badly needs is way more expensive than she can afford, so she needs people to help out. what really caught my attention about her is that she has traveled to nigeria to help abused women and children!! you'll have to read the details at her campaign link, but this is someone who cares more about others than herself. she really deserves other people caring for her too.
and i am now opening commissions in order to help raise money for meg!!! i'm willing to draw art for people who donate. sure you can simply donate on your own and not tell me about it and not get anything from me. if you want do to that, that's fine. but just in case you're not sure whether or not you want to donate, i decided to add an extra incentive, so that there's another reason for you to donate. no, you don't have to be rich and give some huge amount of money. even a little bit of money helps.
keep in mind that meg's crowdfunding campaign is ending on april 18th. (if for some reason the campaign gets extended, i might extend my commission offer). there is a limited time for you to commission me. and if you've watched me for a while you'd know that my commissions and requests rarely open and they only open at random times. i am not sure the next time i'll open either of those. it could be weeks or months.
but right now, my commissions are open, so you might as well do it now since i don't know when i'll do this again. but if you want a commission from me, i need to approve it before you donate to meg's campaign. please send me a note explaining what you want me to draw. i'll draw pretty much anything except fetish art or anything else that's controversial. it can be a sketch or colored work. you can also ask for more than one artwork. see my gallery for examples: sachi-pon.deviantart.com/galle…
tell me what you want, and i'll try to think of a price based on what you tell me. when we agree on a price, you'll donate that amount to meg's campaign. so that's when the art for you will be put on my to-do list!! i'll note you when the art is completed.
so yep there you go... it's a way to help someone who has a serious disease, while at the same time getting some art if you want it. if for some reason you can't donate, you can still share the campaign on social media. or if you know someone who's looking for commissions, show them this journal.
one more thing... i'm wondering if there is anyone else who is interested in doing something like this? you can make art for people in exchange for them donating to a good cause. if there were others who want to do this, i could possibly help advertise or something. comment or note if you want to do commissions for a cause.

raffle closed + a person in need
4 min read
EDIT 3-22: the raffle is closed. the winner is susmobile!!!
this set of screenshots shows that i went to random.org and had it choose a random number between one and six. (one and six were both included as possible answers!) then it chose five, so that's the winner. and, everyone who entered won a llama badge 
but still, even though the raffle is over you can fave and share this journal to help jamie get her health treatment that she badly needs. the more people who see this journal, the more likely someone with money will see it, and they'll donate.
______________________________________________________
i'm going to open up one free request slot (if a lot of people participate, i'll do more than one!) if you want a request, add this journal to your faves. i will wait two weeks, then i will randomly pick a winner and send them a note, and they can request from me a colored halfbody pic of a human (or kemonomimi) character. it's so easy. all you have to do is fave, and you might be the winner!!
i wanted to tell you all about this person named jamie, who survived cancer but has ongoing health problems due to the chemotherapy. she needs an extremely important surgery but the price is so high that she can't afford it. you can help her get the surgery she needs.
i learned about this thanks to a forum post by Rhodanthe-Roseora. when i read about it, i just felt absolutely awful. so, i donated $10 to this campaign. (i'm just saying that to show you that i'm not the type of person to tell you all to do something that i'm not willing to do myself.) you don't have to donate a large amount of money. even a tiny amount can help. and, be sure to spread the word by making a journal or poll, or using social media.
jamie is in need of surgery, but the price is enormous. i was thinking about how healthcare is such a big topic these days in america, where politicians are currently debating some possible changes to our healthcare laws. i like to follow political news so i do know a little about this. it's such a complicated problem with no easy answer. healthcare is expensive, and someone needs to pay for it. hopefully there are ways to make healthcare less expensive. but in this situation that i'm telling you now, here's someone who is facing an expensive healthcare situation and she can't afford it. and i was reading her story and thinking, we don't have to wait for politicians to come up with answers. we can do something right now. so that's why i decided to give her a little money even though i don't actually know her at all. but i wanted to do SOMETHING that will help this healthcare situation. there are so many people who need healthcare and don't have it. but you can do something about it. even if you give ONE dollar, it's better than nothing.
go ahead and fave the journal!! by faving, you help spread the word. and you might win a request!! again, if i see a lot of people faving, i will do a request for more than one person!!!

on and off: my procrastination problem

and i don't want to color someone's contest prize with my rusty skills that haven't been used in months. so i am drawing and coloring another illustration in order to practice coloring. then i'll color the contest prize. then i'll do the next contest prize of course. btw, the manga i mentioned before, "Samiyah and Zahir," is also in progress.Join the community to add your comment.

it's a great choice because of the very gorgeous visual style. and i will give credit where credit is due. the main thing that influenced my choice of setting was this...Join the community to add your comment. Already a deviant? Log In
i thought that more people would like to advertise themselves. i see a lot of artists saying "hardly anyone notices me" so i thought this journal would get more responses.Join the community to add your comment. Already a deviant? Log In
