i’m deep in comm catch-up, doing my best to deliver quality work while struggling with bills/daily expenses.

i’d like to avoid adding to my queue, so i’m sharing this as a way to help if you’ve ever wanted to support me or my art <3

thank you for being here!

i’ve always been afraid to go for it because i saw myself as an inexperienced college dropout for forever, but i feel like with my years of commission work under my belt now i can safely say i have SOME experience and my work is fairly well defined
ritwells.bsky.social
definitely going to look for employment in the art industry soon, my warehouse job barely cuts it and gave me a herniated disc cos they’re cheap and understaffed lol. i need something stable that keeps food on the table for everyone

i’ll be trying to get emails taken care of this week and doing my best to put more time into commissions this month. until i find new employment, things will be tight but i have faith things will work out. thank you to everyone who has provided so much support - it keeps me and my partner afloat.

things are a mess right now, but i’ll get my shit together again soon; i always do. i keep trying to take the curveballs as learning lessons and i have so much to be grateful for.

he’s home now, we’re monitoring him for the next 24-48 hours to see if there is improvement in his breathing with medication - that will determine our next steps. they wanted him to go to an emergency clinic but it’s $1k a night so we’ll just be watching him at home for now. hoping for the best!

hoping for the very best in this situation. he’s currently in an oxygen tank and is being monitored - on his second dose of medicine and we’re just waiting for his oxygen levels to rise above 90.

seriously thank you so much amras!!! this helps immensely. my girlfriend says a huge thank you too, this is her baby since 2014 so it means a lot to her ❤️ x

Total is $503 - it is likely he has heart failure and requires medication.

we are on the way to the vet w/ our 12 yr old chihuahua anubis who’s been having breathing issues. we currently do not have the funds to cover his vet fees.
i will post the bill once we receive it but any shares to help fund his care would be greatly appreciated.

went in for a spine evaluation and i’ll be getting a steroid injection and x-rays - and if these things don’t help then surgery might be the next step. im sure it wont come to that but damn i had no idea it was as bad as they said. art might continue to take me more time than i’d like
