Hi my names Kim, and im looking for a job! Im not gonna beg or anything BUTIMBEGGING. I have a ton of experience with customers and freelance arting, and Ive even done some work in the industry here and there. Im an illustrator with a VFX degree, and ten years of bartending experience. That about sums up my work ethic and personality in a nut shell, all those things you envision about adding these three things together, its totally true.
Some stuff about me:
I like science, reptiles, history and space, i love reading text books and learning about this very cool world we live in. I think barbarians and elves are pretty cool, and I spend a lot of time painting stuff, roleplaying and playing games. Im a a bit more active on my tumblr then I am here, but I check by here daily to see whats going on!
Interests
Hey guys! I have 30 slots left that havent been paid for, so if you would like one, please hop on board. I want to thank everyone that has already gotten a spot, because you guys are awesome!! Until I get a little more caught up, Im going to be closing everything other then the $10 sketches, hopefully they will be open again within a week :)


------------------------
I know im pushing these a lot, but I have some reasons so I guess its time for some confessions: (warning sob story ahead)
Im moving again, cross country. I've had a rough couple of years moving from one bad situation to another, to another, and yet another. Ive been trying to find work the best I can, but lets be honest here, its hard when you are in dire need of medical treatment. Each move has really been more of a "quick fix" to move away from very bad situations with abusive people, and its really taken a toll on my mental health in the past year. My mental health has in turn taken some serious moves into my physical health, the least of which is that i now have, at age 30, almost an entire head of white hair, the worst of which is chronic pain and serious tumtum troubles. I also have some pretty bad irrational fears, anxiety and ptsd that chronically make existing a challenge. I wont go anymore into detail then that, because it can be very trigger warning territory.

As it stands now, i may have as little as 2 weeks to come up with a sizable chunk of change to get me to a safe place where I can get the treatment I need, and the safety that I need.
Now, as most of you guys have learned, I will always.. always get art out for folks in a timely manner, regardless of how im feeling, and I've yet to miss a piece or even be late on strict deadlines, and yes, i set harsher ones for myself then others set on me. My work ethic has never once come into question. I normally work 8-10 hours a day on commission art, and take 1 day off a week, so getting your pieces will not be an issue.

Im asking for a life line basically, to fill the rest of the sketch slots, so that i can finally get somewhere where I can start to get the help I need. Again, thank you guys for reading this, and sticking with me through the thick and thin, and Im so grateful for all the help you guys have already given me.
<3
