Help a homeless artist pay for food and rent for their family :") // reblogs are greatly appreciated.
Decided to make this post again since recently work has been getting more scarce and we are falling on worse times again. Long story short, in November 2021 my family and I (me + my father and younger sibling) became homeless after my dad got into a diabetic coma. Thankfully he came out of it alive, but it left him and my sibling without a home since his freight hauling job fired him for the medical emergency. I was also having to find somewhere else to go since my friends family was dealing with their grandmother's medical issues and we couldn't be there.
We didn't have anywhere to go or help with food/rent considering both sides of the family have ignored us/cut us off, so while I was still at my friend's house and moving out, I opened commissions to get us into a motel room. That was almost two years ago now (if I'm calculating right) and since we can't get regular jobs right now due to not having a car, documents to get an id or any transportation or money to get those documents to get an id; we've been stuck trying to just get by day by day since we can't apply for housing without it.
Right now we're in a real emergency of losing the room and without it, we have nowhere to go and no one to call on for help if we have to leave. We owe 120$ for today since we've been having a hard time paying just day by day, let alone food (we haven't eaten in two days now). I'll have photos below of the room and the receipts for it for context.
So, I'm opening commissions to cover what we need for today and hopefully get some food for the three of us since the feeling is getting painful. If you're interested in a commission, you can either pm me here or email me at ([email protected]) with the commission details. Reblogs also help a ton since it helps open me up to more job opportunities and help support my family faster.
I mainly draw things surrounding DND or fantasy (elves, dwarves, warriors, humans, and anything surrounding dragon age, etc.), but I'm open if you have a different request outside of that. My turn around time is 2 weeks for a smaller commission and up to a month or two for bigger ones. I'm usually taking on a lot of work to support our situation and am quite busy, but I'll be sure to give frequent updates! And you can message me at any time for an immediate update.
