meeksIt's my birthday tomorrow, and I want to make you some art to celebrate! Last year's icon sale was a great success, and I'm looking forward to seeing what you all come up with for me to draw this time!
You set the prices!
Tips of $1 or more get you an icon, 100 x 100 pixels, featuring the subject of your choice.
Tips of $5 or more get you a sketch based on your prompt! These will be 700 pixels on the longest side, and of about the same level of complexity as my Sketch Fest work.
I love discovering new stories to read, but I'd like to get these done in a reasonable amount of time, so in order to minimize the amount of reading/research involved, please try to limit yourself to twitter-length prompts (~140 characters). Links to reference pics or character descriptions are welcome, but if you want to link me to a novel, please consider requesting a Story Sketch instead. Unless you ask for something that would look better in monochrome, all artwork will be full colour.
I recently found out that the local art school holds open life drawing sessions over the summer, so proceeds from this sale will go toward studio fees and art supplies. It's been a long time since I've drawn from a live model, and I'm really looking forward to it!
Bonus! Last year's event brought in $29 in tips; equal to the age I was turning. If tips reach or exceed $30 this year, all participants will be entered in a draw to receive a free figure drawing, on actual paper!
Get your art here!
Or let me know if you'd like to use an alternate payment service.
