Hey everyone! I'm bringing back Freebie Mondays.
It's been a while since I've done the giveaways, and I enjoyed them so much I decided to bring them back. All I ask is for a follow and a comment so I can keep track of you all. It'll be nice to give back to the community again. <3

As for mental health, I wanted to touch base on my own a little bit. Some of you may know that I struggled with depression for a long long time. Well recently I was also diagnosed with Bi Polar depression. It was a dead giveaway for how I was feeling. So I talked to my doctor and she put me on some new meds and they are working amazingly. They give me the ability to actually concentrate and follow up with my thoughts. I've finally gotten the drive to draw again. And consistently too! Which is amazing to me. I've never known how to be consistent and I finally can be. I can't wait to grow as an artist with you all again, especially since my head-space is in such a better place.

So I just wanted to reach out and let you all know that I'm doing super well, I'm drawing daily and I hope you all stick with me for Freebie Mondays <3<3<3

Not sure if you all remember me, but here I am!
So I wandered around the internet for a year and I'm back.
After the fall of Tumblr, I went to PornHub to post, but that's just not the place for my art. So I'm back. I've missed you all so much.
I won't make any promises, but I will try to post more often.
It might be in batches or it might be day to day.

Muah. Loves you.

Hey all! I know I haven't been to active in the community and I apologize. I've been quite busy trying to run my small business and that has taken away from my art time.
That's why I'd like to say that starting next week I will be posting at least one pic a week. Which means I'll be bringing back request week c: That gives me enough time to kinda doodle, take care of what I need to take care of and also work. c:
In the meantime I also posted a commission auction over at furbuy. Starting bid is $20 for a full body color commission. https://www.furbuy.com/seller/CrystalShards.html
Thanks for hanging in there guys.

Hey guys! I know I kinda disappeared without notice for a while and I'm sorry @w@
Life kinda caught up with me and demanded I attend.
I haven't been streaming, because I just didn't know when I would be summoned to do something, but I have been working despite my obvious lack of being online.
I will be sending out either finished work or at least updates Friday <3
As of Monday I will be back to streaming.

Love you weeboos <3<3

Hey guys,
I know I haven't been to active (no big surprise) and that is because I have been streaming like crazy over on Picarto!

Hello everybody! I'm back from PAX, which was awesome; thanks for asking, and it is time to continue on as scheduled!

Now, I know I have been throwing around the phrase 'Request Monday' a lot and it has been quite some time since I've done one, but it's back!
Starting 3/16 (aka tomorrow) I will be doing Request Monday again! :D
What is Request Monday you ask?
It is one day a week where I randomly select someone from a list of people to do art for. The result is a complete pic, including background, lines, colors, the whole shebang! (also, depending on complexity, I might be able to fit in 2 to 3 every Monday)
A couple months ago I did this and it was very well received. Although, I do implore, if you have the money to support an artist please do so. Free art is awesome, but it doesn't pay the bills.
And speaking of bills, I was contemplating starting up a Patreon.
It seems to be going over swimmingly with the art community, and I think it could help in many ways. I'd love to hear some feedback from those of you who have one and how well it works/doesn't work.

Other guffins to talk about... hmm lets see... first I'd like to apologize for being all over the place with this journal, it's just how my brain is working today. Second, Anyone who put in for the previous rounds of Request Monday, I am starting fresh, so if you'd like to enter keep and eye out. I will be posting a Rules Pic soon so that I can get this whole thing organized. :3

Otherwise I think that is it. Links below for various good stuff <3

So I know I said request Monday's would come back in Feb and then my friend JNAT informed me that PAX east is in March (actually next week, but I've been busy so yeah)

So anyway, March will bring request Mondays back and commissions as well; and then April is just awesome birthday month (holy shit I'll be 27)

So yeah, I just wanted you guys to be aware of certain things. :3 Basically, after PAX all the things will happen again.
Oh! Also I have a website now!

Go there
well... if you want
I haven't quite ironed out all the kinks yet XD

Love you

Hey everyone! I hope you all enjoyed your holidays and a happy new years.

I thought I'd let you all know whats going on for me this year.
As of right now I am taking a bit of a hiatus, probably until February. Do not worry it will only be from commission stuff.

As it looks right now here is my yearly itinerary.
Jan - Hiatus
Feb - Request Mondays comes back
March - Commissions come back
April - PAX East bitches
May - Dec - Who knows!

I just need a month to kinda relax and get myself in order for this coming year, but expect a lot more art to be produced c:

I'm going to try and dedicate a couple days to artwork and gaming.
I'm also in the process of working on launching a website and kickstarter (which may eliminate some of the commission work)

See you all soon <3

Sorry I removed the previous submitted art, the person who commissioned me asked me to remove it for privacy purposes. I'm going to see if I clothe her if I can repost c:

Sorry for the confusion

Sorry for the lack in activity the past few weeks. I have a problem with my right wrist and when it acts up I am practically useless, but it's better now and I have returned <3 <3 <3

So expect some sketchies and stuff real soon.

Much love, Sylvi

COMMISSIONS : OPEN

Hello everyone c:
It's so very nice to see you all and to be back in action again.

I've been getting a lot of questions lately about commissions and requests and my availability to do said things. So I figured I'd write up this journal in hopes of clearing a few things up.

Commissions:
Yes I am open for commissions. If you are interested in commissions please note me or send me an email <3

Commission Prices

Requests
At the moment I am accepting requests, but only accepting them. Nothing is set in stone with requests, I appreciate every request and all the love you guys give, but I can only do so many in my free time.
I am currently a request page here so if you're interested please leave a comment there.
Also every Monday I pick one request and do a complete color and background piece. So again if you're interested leave a comment on the post before.

Streaming
I very often stream my work and I love to hang out with people. If you're up for it come hang out.

Final Thoughts

I am quite understanding that not everyone has money (myself included) but I'd like to let you guys know that this is what I do for a living so your support is what keeps me going c:.

Thanks for all the feedback and thanks for the continued support <3
See you all next time

Sorry if I'm just mass posting a bunch of art and sketches. I haven't been on the site in so long and even then I hadn't posted anythin D:
