Perselus

Hello everyone,

I have new art you can find here:

Native

Gaucho 2

Gaucho and Prenda

70's Commission

As for my suckish life, it couldn't suck more for me these days, I feel like I'm never getting a job in this lifetime. I don't understand it. Am I so useless that not even Walmart will take me?

So, art is what I have.

I just ask everyone to please, please, please let anyone in need of a portrait, illustration, fanart, or other artwork done, know that I am taking commission. And that I have a CafePress shop now, I'm working on getting more stuff to it, so let me know what artworks you guys would like to see in the products there.

Since I can't have a premium shop, I had to open 2 different basic shops to get all the stuff I wanted, so there are 2 links so far:

Thanks everyone!

This was commissioned by sbrande for her HG/SS fanfiction Everything I do, I do it for you.

Everything I do

And this Snarry was commissioned by madameknight72.

Afternoon

Ok, as I have mentioned before, my computer is not working, and I'm basically doing very little as artwork goes. I am trying to when I get a computer I'm borrowing, but with a tiny screen it's very hard. But I am working slowly, anyway.

There couldn't be a worst time to lose my computer, because I need money desperately, and can't work on my commissions. And no, I can't even get a cheap computer right now. If I'm luck the necessary parts I need for my computer to work will arrive in a few weeks, and I'll be able to have my old computer back.

I have been looking for a job and haven't had any luck at all. It's really frustrating. I am freaking out, and honestly, I can't remember a time when things were this bad.

So, I need your help. All I ask is for you guys to spread the word, to someone who may be interested in commissions (they will be slow, but I'll do them), or I can do prints of my existing work. If you guys or anyone you know are interested, it will be great help!

Also, I opened an account for my mom at Deviantart, and she's showing her jewelry. We're working together on some cool jewelry, combining my art, with her pieces. I will add any art you guys want to the jewelry, from my original stuff, to the HP fanart. I still don't have the really good stuff done, because we can't buy the material, but there are a few pictures of mine and my mom's work for you guys to take a look. There will be things done in polymer clay and porcelain, all hand painted.

We will soon have an Etsy account, but right now we don't have money to showcase all the work. We will add them soon, so, I'll let you guys know of the link for that.

So, please, do go to her page Bijouart, and check out her gallery! And if you guys could let other people know in your journals, I'd really appreciate it.

Thank you so much for listening.

Commissioned by macshel.

I had this done sometime in August, but macshel asked me not to post it until after September 1st. ;) (I hope your friend likes it!)

Snow Aldo

Inspired on the poem:

"Snow, Aldo" by Katy DiCamillo

Once, I was in New York,
in Central Park, and I saw
an old man in a black overcoat walking
a black dog. This was springtime
and the trees were still
bare and the sky was
gray and low and it began, suddenly,
to snow:
big fat flakes
that twirled and landed on the
black of the man's overcoat and
the black dog's fur. The dog
lifted his face and stared
up at the sky. The man looked
up, too. "Snow, Aldo," he said to the dog,
"snow." And he laughed.
The dog looked
at him and wagged his tail.
If I was in charge of making
snow globes, this is what I would put inside:
the old man in the black overcoat,
the black dog,
two friends with their faces turned up to the sky
as if they were receiving a blessing,
as if they were being blessed together
by something
as simple as snow
in March.

Another art update! Used the reference from a vintage photo. Click on link:

Boy on the steps

Eileen and Snape

This was commissioned by Sindie for her fanfiction The Moment It Began.

Lily and Snape are alone in an empty classroom about to kiss. Snape looks totally taken by Lily, it wasn't my intention at first, but his expression insisted on staying that way. Click on link:

Alone in a classroom

I know I've been a terrible LJ friend, I don't have time to even check my flist anymore! :(

My older son is having problems with his grades and I'm helping him study, plus looking for a Therapist to help with his anxiety. He knows his stuff, but completely blanks at tests and school work, I have no idea why.

Also, I've been working in many commissions, and there's this one I can't publish for censorship reasons, which is taking most of my time. I will though, try to post the pictures when I rework them to a more "family" version. ;)

Hope all is well with everyone! :)

This was done with the reference of a vintage photograph I saw in one of stupid_drawings's posts. I don't know how she does it, but she manages to find the most beautiful photos, I couldn't help getting inspired by a lot of them. Click on image:

First of all I just wanted to say that I won't be checking LJ and haven't been checking it because I don't want to run into any spoilers for book 7. That happened to me when HBP came out and I certainly don't want to ruin the fun of reading the last book, so I've been avoiding internet altogether. I am though, working on commissions and if anyone would like to reach me, email me.

So I'm really sorry if I haven't been checking you guys journals. I will update original art today. I have been really busy redecorating my bedroom and the rest of the house, so I painted 4 pictures to hang on the walls. Click on image:

Yes, I have to show off, because, well, I got the most beautiful gift in the mail yesterday. I'm looking at my precious, right now! Inkvine made this beautiful Snape and sent it to me as a gift for the kiriban at DeviantArt. So, click on the pic and leave her a review, she's extremely talented. I can't believe how perfect and beautifu his hands are!

I have 3 new pictures, 1 Snape pic, and 2 originals. But before I go on with the art, I must rec an essay on Snape and the prophecy, that I found really interesting. It was written by avenugoban and it's called Severus Snape and the Misunderstood Prophecy. Go there and read it!

Now for the pics. The first is a Severus Snape card for riabhach whose birthday is today. She's been a good friend and I wanted to do something for her today. So here it is. Happy Birthday riabhach!
