Hey everyone! I got a VGen account and opened commissions. I have chibi pfps, emotes, and full body pieces for sale! I could really use another source of income, so please follow me on VGen, repost on socials, and maybe even commission me? Prices start at 25USD.
Haven’t really been posting here as much. Was feeling some fluffy feelings about someone and had to get it out the only way I ever have…. My angel and demon characters that I use as emotional therapy dolls.
PLEASE READ TO HELP A DISABLED QUEER ARTIST IN A BAD SITUATION.
I've been posting my art online since 2004. Unfortunately, due to mental illness, stress, symptomatic skill decay, and chronic pain, my work has had slow progress and even slower recognition. I've never been able to break past more than a couple hundred followers except on platforms where one or two non-art posts gained traction.
I'm in my 30s, and I've lost multiple jobs due to my illnesses. I'm trying to find a long-term solution, but I can't even find a temp job. My back pain has gotten so bad I can barely move-- It's complicated, but I'm currently stuck in a very abusive living situation and have to hop between two households bi-weekly just to survive. I have bills to pay, a beautiful tuxedo cat to feed and care for, groceries, monthly expenses, my phone even got turned off this month.
Obviously, I'm grateful for those who have helped me. But every time I post about needing help, it either gets suppressed by the algorithm, or it gets plenty of notes, with no results. I've been barely half active on tumblr since the spice ban, I've moved from Deviantart, to here, to Twitter and Instagram, to Tiktok, and sometimes bluesky. Now, most of these platforms make it impossible to gain any traction as an artist.
Go to paypal.me/prittiepink and type in the amount. Since it’s PayPal, it's easy and secure. Don’t have a PayPal account? No worries.
So I'm asking, please, whatever you can do-- share, reblog, like, a dollar, every little bit helps. I need at least 500$ to try and cover my bills, and I already have a stack of commissions I need to finish. I'm putting all my links under this post. You can also follow me on all my platforms, linked in my bio card! Thank you for reading!

Wasn’t feeling too hot and missed WIP Wednesday. Here’s a throwback to make up for it. My second ever Procreate piece and my first ever animation. I feel like this would be easy to redraw. I haven’t messed with animation much.
A chibi exclusive month. My friends and I did an Art Fight style trade event in place of secret Santa this year and it was a smashing success! These are the “snowballs” I threw into the fray. Characters belong to their creators. Join @ohkaycafe on Discord for more fun events!
Throwback to my first iPad procreate drawing. I was so ecstatic I finished it in 5 hours, since my traditional art tends to live as either sketches, or half colored characters. I sketched the character again this October, and decided to fully render it out. I finished her in November.
My original character, Pepper. Do not steal, trace, feed to AI, or repost without credit.
