Hello all!

Thanks for reading this.  I've been doing freelance art since the early 90's. I love creating original art and doing commissions. In 2015 I started having incredibly painful joint issues. After seeing a bunch of doctors and specialists I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia.


Without getting into the nitty gritty it has severely impacted my ability to be creative and draw. I'm no longer able to work at the pace I once could. It's been exceptionally devastating emotionally and financially.  I don't want to give up on art as a hobby or as a profession. I also do not want to ask for help without giving anything back. So in exchange for your support I'm going to be creating two special images for those who donate to this fund raiser. If we actually make it to the max funding, I'll make the two images available for everyone on my web galleries at a smaller size. Folks who donate will get a copy at 300 dpi resolution suitable for printing without watermarks.


I'm looking at several models ranging from $500 (XP-PEN Artist22E Pro 19 inch) to a Wacom Cintiq 22 HD at $1,699.95 .  I'd be happy with the XP but it doesn't play well with wacom drivers so it would be more complicated to use with my current set up. So I'm shooting for the moon as using the Cintiq would be easier. I am hoping using a pen display over my Intuos will make drawing easier and thus allow me to be more productive.


Thanks again to everyone who's supported me over the years, and to those who  assist me in this endeavor.
