Hey, Everyone!

Hey, everyone!

I first started taking commission work over a year ago, and I’m endlessly grateful for all the support I’ve been shown over the past year from both my clients and the community. For someone who always struggled to get to 100 followers on places like DeviantArt, this is a huge milestone!

Making a living in the arts has always been my dream. Four years ago, I gave up on that dream when I accepted I could never go to art school. One year ago, in the midst of crisis, I made a Tumblr account and decided to give it one last-ditch effort. And I’m glad I did it. I wouldn’t be where I am today without all of you. I’ve improved and grown so much over the past year not only as an artist, but also as a person. Your positive reactions to my work gave me faith in my art and skillset. The encouragement of my followers spurred me to branch out, take risks, have confidence– and after walking forth into the unknown, I landed a tattoo apprenticeship. I have a budding career in the arts, just like I’d always dreamed.

I’m so thankful for every like and every reblog. You’ve given me the courage to plow forward and make my own living on my own terms, and I don’t think words can properly express how precious that is to me. 

To all those who support artists, thank you. This raffle is for you and all the good you do.

Unarmed Black Man With Hands Up Shot By Police.

Charles Kinsey, 47, a behavior therapist from South Florida was shot in the leg three times by the police in North Miami while laying on the ground with his arms up and trying to help his patient with autism who had run away from a group home.

It all started when someone called 911 and said there was a man walking around with a gun. However it was Kinsey’s patient who was sitting on the ground cross-legged, playing with a toy truck.

Charles got shot by police despite telling them he was only trying to help his patient.

The police shot him, handcuffed him and left him on ground bleeding.

North Miami police have not released much information at all. They haven’t released the officer’s name, they haven’t given us an update on the investigation. However, they did say that the state attorney is now a part of this investigation.
