I have commissions over and priced VERY low in hopes that I can gain some clients. I am currently living alone, save for my service animal. I am very ill both physically and mentally, to the point where medications alone cost me $100/month. My parents give me a monthly budget that helps a lot, but between medications, groceries, school supplies, pet supplies, other necessities, therapy, co-pays… you get the picture. It adds up quickly.
I recently contracted a virus that left me so ill that I was bound to my apartment for two weeks; this caused me to lose my job, which was what kept me able to afford my monthly expenses.
I am best contacted at jram1996@gmail.com.
Prices:
-Digital Sketch $3 ((+$2 for each additional character))*
-Digital Colored Sketch $6 ((+$4 for each additional character))*
-Digital Colored & Shaded Sketch $9 ((+$6 for each additional character))
*Digital sketches will have the blue lines removed; I simply don’t when doing personal projects. Similarly, all examples that are colored are shaded, as they were made for personal projects.
Now, for some technical details:
-All payments must be sent to jram1996@gmail.com via Paypal. I only use Paypal. I prefer that half of the price be sent before I begin the commission ((after I give you the confirmed price)), and the other half after I finish, before I sent it to you.
-Things I will NOT draw: Porn, Excess Gore ((feel free to ask if you think your request may be considered excess)), Offensive Material ((racist, sexist, ableist, etc.)), and Complex Animals/Creatures ((I have included the dragon example to show my level of ability with non-human drawings)).
-In terms of backgrounds, I will do solid colors and textures/gradients/pre-made backgrounds. I am not confident in my ability to make acceptable backgrounds of my own design, and thus ask that if you do not want a plain background, that you suggest an overlay or gradient/pattern background. Thanks!
Any and all commissions are extremely appreciated- if that’s not feasible for you, even a signal boost helps me a LOT.
I’m hoping to be commissioned by anyone wanting a neat-o colorful sketch of whatever character(s) they want; being disabled, queer, and in college… life is both stressful and expensive.
Prices:
Basic Sketch :: $5 ((+$3 for each additional character))
Colored Sketch :; $10 ((+$6 for each additional character))*
Colored and Shaded Sketch :: $15 ((+$8 for each additional character))
All payments must be made with PayPal, please.
Frankly, I can barely afford what I need. My work hours are very limited because I’m a student, my medications are $100 for just a month’s supply, I have a service dog and of course it costs money to take care of her- I could go on but I think I’ve made the point. Basically, finances are a huge source of stress.
Because I’m so busy, I am currently only offering sketches, but they can be lineart, colored, or shaded. I’ll put examples down below, and if you’re interested, either message me on tumblr or email me at jram1996@gmail.com.
Thank you so much to everyone who gives me business and signal boosts my services!
UPDATE: Please, PLEASE signal boost this, even if you can’t commission me. I lost my job today; I had to go to the ER and ended up missing two weeks, and they fired me for unreliability, and MIGHT hire be again in Spring quarter, but that’s three months away. I now have no income. I am given a monthly budget from my parents but it’s just not enough for medications, co-pays, therapy, groceries, taking care of my dog– I just don’t know what to do. I’m absolutely desperate and implore people to reblog this and consider commissioning me.
Today we had the weekly staff meeting, and while I was in the writing center a coworker accidentally called me she- I actually did not notice because I was taking my meds and eating a snack. When we sat down at the meeting, he pulled me aside and apologized for using the wrong pronouns, even though I hadn’t even noticed. Later on, another coworker used the pronouns, and when I pointed it out she was quick to apologize and correct herself.
Basically, this is why I love college. It gets so much better.
My parents cried- they told me that it felt like their daughter died. They were confused and angry. Withing the span of six months I tried to commit suicide twice. They refused my name and pronouns. They became stressed and even angry whenever I brought it up. We fought. A lot of my self-harm was a result of it.
I felt ill whenever I thought about the future. Would I ever be able to change me name? Start hormones? Get married? My parents would disown me, be disgusted with me, look at me with empty eyes. It hurt more than anything to think about being such a disappointment to them, such a disgrace.
Yesterday, my mom emailed me. I’m a freshman in college, and as of late I just have been unable to take it- I’ve been pouring out my emotions to her, explaining to her how it’s made me feel over the years.
In her email, she told me there’s a PFLAG meeting next month. She asked me to go with her.

Transgender/Nonbinary People
Neuroatypical People ((Again, all kinds, but the ones specific to me are BPD, OCD, PTSD, GAD, and Depression))
College Students((I just started college and I just keep blogging about my experience and would follow people who blog about their, too!))
So, if you’re any/all of the above, hit me up with a reblog! Mention in the tags which apply to you, and if you’re just boosting, tag as signal boost.

What?! Only six minutes?! Blasphemy! I talk about coming out day and do a mini poetry slam with Napoleon trying to upstage me. If you want me to keep vlogging, you gotta let me know by passing this around! Liking is great, but spread my lovely face around- if I get enough viewers I’ll get a camera that doesn’t SUCK. And if you want a say in what content I put into these videos, take the poll! It lets me know what you guys want. OvO
I forgot to mention it in the video, but here’s a question for the day ((inbox me your answer or leave a comment on the video)): Did you come out today? Whether you did or not, what’s your orientation?
