 I dont usually do this sort of thing and hate asking for handouts, but I'm desperate now. I lost my job last week for being late 3 times in a 6 month period and am 2 weeks from being homeless and truly a starving artist. I understand everyone has their own struggles and finacial troubles they are dealing with, but anything and everything helps and is highly appreciated. If not for me, then please, at least so I can keep my dog fed. She 13yrs old, happy and doesn't know any better and I'd like to keep it that way. I apologize for the sob story and would like TIA everyone who helps.  https://cdn.zbd.gg/ugc-uploads/52ce2ac3-1716008932642.jpeg

 I've been sharing some of my lighter art on here and am grateful for the appreciation I've been receiving, but I'm wondering if yall would be interested in peaking into the darker recesses of my mind. Many of my drawings and doodles are spontaneous, but many are also collaborations of darker moments placed on a single page. Lmk if yall are interested.

 Smile, that beautiful smile,
Forget the past and its trials.
Look ahead with head held high,
Knowing the world could be your prize. 
 Beauty shrouded by sorrow,
Leaves the world in tears. 
So smile, my Love, laugh, 
And cast away your fears. 
 Idk why but butterflies and eyes have always captivated me. https://cdn.zbd.gg/ugc-uploads/b1bb0e67-1713660753140.jpeg
