Achetez un café à Alexandria Olthoff

I think my passion and drive is similar to that of most artists in that I want to make a living creating yet be affordable so that everyone can enjoy artwork in their lives and homes. These two things sometimes don't mesh well. I want to earn what I am worth and at the same time understand that art is not a priority for most of the world living paycheck to paycheck. Anything you give would help me continue to keep art attainable no matter the buyers circumstance. That has always been my goal, recently what I use artwork for has changed a bit though, I have been fighting depression and grieving a lot, creating out of the grief has helped me process the loss and just be sad and in the moment instead of avoiding it. Your gifts would also help me continue this because these items I either want to keep for myself or are not very tempting to buy (I am assuming here, I could be wrong). Lastly I am currently working on a tattoo portfolio and searching for an apprenticeship. I have been making prints and stickers from the work but have to keep the originals for the portfolio for now, which means working hours on pieces that I can't sell. Once I get an apprenticeship (fingers crossed!) I will be working a ton for free at least for the first year. Buying my art, tipping or giving a gift would be extremely helpful in working towards this goal/dream.
Thank you, I appreciate every one of you <3
