So, I’m going to start commissions, and with very good reason. My dad is going to lose his job in a few weeks, and my mom cant work due to her many illnesses. These illnesses require medications that we may not be able to get, and even now shes starting to skip important pills. We had to rush her to the hospital due to a potassium deficiency a few days ago, she almost went into cardiac arrest. Me, my father, and my brother also take expensive meds, me for my depression and anxiety, my father for his anger issues, and my brother for his psychosis. These medications add up in cost, so much so that we haven’t been buying food. All I ate for the past 3 days was cereal, its practically all we have. And this is weeks before my dad even loses his job, mind you! I have no idea what we’re gonna do when the little money we had coming in is gone completely. I’ve tried applying for so many different places to earn some money, but none have even gotten back to me, NONE. And to make matters worse, my debit card was stolen and is now -$85. The company refused to refund any of the purchases. I know my art isn’t the greatest, but nobody would just donate money on their own accord… Please, even if its only $5, anything helps.
Rules:

Please pay up front. i will start on your order as soon as i receive full payment. if for whatever reason im unable to complete the order, i’ll make sure to refund you.
I only accept money through paypal
if you’re new to paypal and aren’t sure how to use it, here’s a simple tutorial (PLEASE read because if you don’t know what you’re doing you could get me in a lot of trouble because I’m new to this too)
Be as specific as possible! provide references if they are needed, and feel free to bring up past art ive done as an example of a specific style you want. (my /tagged/my+dumb+art) prices are not set in stone and will vary depending on how simple or how complex your order is.
will not draw: nsfw/porn, anything icky like incest or pedophilia, complex coloring. (im sorry, but i’m still new with my tablet)
willing to draw: simple backgrounds (but they will cost $1 extra), light gore and blood, nudity, furries, animals.
How to commission me:

email me at alproto01[at]gmail.com detailing what you want, please be specific. This email is also the one you will pay! if i don’t respond after a bit, please feel free to send me an ask on tumblr letting me know you emailed me!!!
Thank you again, my situation is horrible and I really need help. My depression is beginning to spiral out of control because of the issues in my house, and anything helps <3

Just an important update that my dad fell ill recently and had to have emergency surgery, as well as myself having to go to multiple psychology departments for better therapy. We don’t have the money to pay for all of this and only 3 people even commissioned me in the first place… On top of this, being a senior in high school, we need to do a gift trade with a selected teacher as a tradition and so I need some extra money to get mine a decent gift. I really like her and don’t want her to be disappointed for getting me. If you can’t commission me or even donate please spread this if you can? I’m so sorry for this, it’s embarrassing for me to do this when my art is still mediocre, but my art HAS improved quite a bit and I really need help… Thank you. ❤️
