Commissions for Shakespheare With Heart

Mon Oct 19, 2009, 8:03 AM

.: Purple Lights




I've decided to go ahead and offer the commissions for Shakespheare With Heart. :iconhatakekelley: will also be doing commissions for fundraising as well.

For my UCF Business Cornerstone class, I, with a group of 5 people including :iconhatakekelley: have to organize projects to raise $1200 for a particular charity. My group is raising funds for Shakespeare With Heart, which is an organization that integrates special needs children (typically those with cerebral palsy, autisim, and down syndrome) with general population children for a summer drama camp. At the end of the program, the children put on a Shakespheare play at the Orlando Shakespheare Theater (it's a well known theater here in Orlando) using the theaters many resources. Last year, the children performed Taming of the Shrew, with the two leads played by teens with autism.

I've volunteered for a program like this when I was in high school, called Freedom Ride. I assisted with therapeutic horseback riding lessons for disadvantaged children, and I've seen first hand how programs such as Shakespheare With Heart really impact lives. And that's why I'm motivated to raise not only the $1200, but go beyond that (my group is shooting for $1500). Plus, I'd like to ensure that I get an A in the class. :D

Therefore, I'm interested in doing commissions to raise some extra funds for Shakespheare With Heart. My group has already raised $800, and we have a few more fundraisers planned. Would anyone be interested in commissioning me for charity? All proceeds will go to Shakespheare With Heart, and I'll put the commission rates relatively low, since this is not for profit in any way (and I don't think my art's worth much anyway ^^;).

COMMISSION INFORMATION(1-3 characters)
Sketch-- $3
Lineart-- $8
Flat coloring-- $10
Cell-shade coloring-- $15
Marker coloring-- $18
Soft-shading-- $20

If you want more than 3 characters, it'll be $0.50 for each additional characters on sketch, lineart, and flat color commissions, and $1 for each additional character on the other commissions.

I WILL DO:
Fanart
Original Characters
Real people
Pairings
Light Shoujo-ai and Shounen-ai

I WILL NOT DO:
Hateful images
Porn/Hentai
Yaoi/Yuri
Anything that would require a Mature Filter

I'm perfectly willing to draw fanart for any fandom, though I'll need a reference pic (and maybe a description) for characters from anything outside of Naruto, Soul Eater, Death Note, One Piece, and Immortal Rain. Also, I'm somewhat willing to draw pairings I greatly dislike since this is for charity, not for me.

What to expect:
Lineart=
Flat colors=
Cell-shading=
Marker=
Soft-shading=

Payment will be sent and collected through Paypal. My Cornerstone team has an established Paypal account and separate bank account, so the money will be going directly to the charity without me as a middleman. To commission me, you must send me a note. Requests for a commission on my journal or anywhere else won't be considered. I'll start with 5 commissions for now.

1. :iconjyukai-koudan: ShinoHana Soft-shading
2. :iconuchihaprincess16: DeiCasa and NaruSaku Cell-shading
3. :iconphwrobel: NaruSaku Cell-shading
4. :iconsasusakufan1: KibaHina Soft-shading
5. COMMISSIONS ARE CLOSED

Our group name for the project is Twelfth Knight (lol, I'm so punny and lame), and here's our website for more info: [link]

I've been seeing a lot of artists opening up their time for commissions. I never really thought my art is good enough for commissions, but I'm considering starting commissions for a particular reason.

For my UCF Business Cornerstone class, I, with a group of 5 people including :iconhatakekelley: have to organize projects to raise $1200 for a particular charity. My group is raising funds for Shakespeare With Heart, which is an organization that integrates special needs children (typically those with cerebral palsy, autisim, and down syndrome) with general population children for a summer drama camp.

Therefore, I'm interested in doing commissions to raise some extra funds for Shakespheare With Heart. My group has already raised $650, and we have a few other fundraisers planned. Would anyone be interested in commissioning me for charity? All proceeds will go to Shakespheare With Heart, and I'll put the commission rates relatively low, since this is not for profit in any way.

EDIT: Good news! It seems that the video has now been removed! :dance:

Recently, I got a heads-up from :iconwondering-antagonist: that my collab with :iconjudgegooby: was stolen and "edited." However, I was shocked to learn that the thief not only stole it, but she used it to make a "tutorial" for edits/art theft. :X I quickly commented on the video, politely telling the thief that she needed to remove the video since she was infringing on my and JudgeGooby's copyrights.

When I checked back today, to see if the video was indeed gone, I found that the video still stands, with my comments deleted and a response: "i HATE THE PEOPLE THAT GO AROUND BASHING AND THREATENING PEOPLES VIDS. jesus christ people just ignore it and go on with you fucking lives! D8" Naturally, she then added text boxes to the video in an attempt to justify her theft, saying that she found the image on Photobucket and not deviantART (does that make my and JudgeGooby's work any less ours? :|) and that her explaination in her video description says that the art isn't hers (giving credit to the original artist does NOT give you the right to use the image; you need explicit permission from the artist to use the image).

If you want to see this atrocity for yourself, please follow this link: [link] I, in the meantime, will be reporting this thief to YouTube, since she didn't want to respectfully remove the video. I'm probably going to start signing or watermarking my works from now on. :X


. . . Anyway, a lot of people have been wondering why I'm not on dA so much anymore. I've been very with my job the past three months. I work at a Burlington Coat Factory as a sales associate, and its a very exhausting, time-consuming job (it doesn't help that its a 30-40 minute drive from home). :iconadadeh:, I'm so sorry that I haven't finished your request prize yet, but I promise I will do it! In the meantime, everybody should go and visit her gallery. :D

Well, it's been a while since I've updated my journal. :ohnoes: I would like to explain my reasons for not spending a lot of time on dA or on OIAI:

1. Finals are coming up, which means my professors are cramming all of the last-minute quizzes, exams, and big projects into the next two weeks. T.T

2. I'm still very burnt-out from this exhaustingly miserable school year, so my motivation is very low (sorry guys, hopefully the summer will help revive my motivation).

3. Adding to #3, my motivation for OIAI is particularly low because it is a time-consuming project. I will get back to it, but I still need to recover from this past year.

4. I'm currently obsessed with Rorschach and Team 8 right now, so expect fanart of that kind (though I do have sketches for a Deidara and Tobi humor comic as well).

There are so many messages and deviations from friends that I have yet to even look at, and I promise I'll get to it once my finals are done (almost there!). For now, a random survey I found:


[1] What is your last name?
L_________ :)

[2] What color is your mailbox?
Brick red/brown ('cause it's made of bricks. . . )

[3] Are you available?
Yes, but I have notoriously bad luck with guys. :( It doesn't help that I'm infatuated with a guy who is committed to his girlfriend of several years.

[4] Who was your last kiss?
Again, I have serious bad luck with men. :(

[5] Do you have to drive over a bridge to get home?
No

[6] Are you taller than your mom?
Yep, by an inch. :)

[7] What curse do you say the most when your pissed off?
Usually "damn."

[8] Are you God?
No. O.o

[9] What do you do to get over a broken heart?
I'm trying to figure that out right now, but I should probably ask my sister (since she's gotten over one :)).

[10] Do you enjoy writing in colored pens?
Sometimes, depending on my mood and the availability of colored pens.

[11] Does anything hurt on your body right now?
I have a cold, so my head and throat hurts. My ankles hurt too, but I was born with pronating ankles, so that's normal. :iconzaruplz:

[12] Do you often cry during a movie?
Yes. I get it from my mom.

[13] Last text message you recieved?
My cell phone plan does not allow me to send or receive text messages. My dad's old fashioned in the sense that he sees no point in sending a text when that same device can just call the person. :/

[14] Who sent it?
See above.

[15] Do you hate your life?
It's an up-and-down roller coaster. I'm starting to relatively like my life again, after a crushing year.

[16] Do you get mad easily?
Yes, but I rarely show it, which unfortunately means I let it build inside over time. Little things can really irk me, but many people don't see that.

[17] Do you drink?
Alcohol? No.

[18] What is your biggest pet peeve?
Ignorance.

[19] Are you cold?
No, not really.

[20] Do any of your friends have kids?
No close friends.

[21] Do you know anyone that is pregnant right now?
Nope.

[22] Who should pay on the first date?
Depends on who asked whom and how expensive the date is.

[23] How many years older than you are you willing to date?
Honestly, I don't know. It depends on the person, really. I can see myself dating an older man (assuming I find a man in the first place), but I don't think my dad would be thrilled about it. :ohnoes:

[24] Do you have any friends?
Yes, despite the friend drama I've been through. In the end, I'll always have *HatakeKelley, my twin sister.

[25] Do you have any mean friends?
Everyone can be mean at times. It would be naive to suggest that anyone can be completely "not mean." I know I can be mean when the chips are down, even though I mostly try to be nice and pleasant. And I learned that even the people I thought didn't have a single mean bone in their body would turn out to be just as petty and malicious as the rest of us.

[26]What is the ugliest color in your opinion?
Off the top of my head, yellow-brown. Ew.

[27] Have you ever liked someone who all your friends couldn't stand?
No, but I've liked people that some of my friends couldn't stand.

[28] Have you ever felt like driving off a cliff, seriously?
Hmm.

[29] Have you ever contemplated suicide?
Yes, several times. Never came even close to doing anything further, though.

[30] Do you scratch your ears?
Um, is that not normal? O.o

[31] Who was the last person to hug you?
My parents

[32] What brand are the pants/jeans you're wearing right now?
Dunno :shrug:

[33] How tall are you?
5'8.5"

[34] What is the closest green object?
My sister's backpack

[35] What is on your feet?
Nothing.

[36] If you were born the opposite sex, what would your parents name you?
My parents liked the name Andrew, they told me.

[37] If you could go back to any time period when would it be?
Eh, each period has its drawbacks and its perks. I wouldn't mind being born a decade sooner, I guess.

[38] Do you want to have kids?
Yes, eventually (not now, obviously)

[39] What is the brightest color you're wearing?
Eh heh heh, my white belt.

[40] Who is the friend you have that you would never have thought you'd have?
Sometimes I think about the odds that gave me a twin sister. Does that count?

[41] Who do you hate the most right now?
I make it a personal effort to not hate people. I dislike people, though.

[42] Whats your mother's middle name?
Birth middle name: Jean Maiden name: Foster

[43] What kind of car do you want?
I'm pretty satisfied with my cute Kia Spectre. :)

[44] What is your favourite video game?
Final Fantasy VII and X, Okami, and Pokemon Crystal

[45] Do you like your dad?
I :heart: my dad.

[46] Do you have any TV shows on DVD?
Yes, the Office and 21 Jump Street (my mom owns Friends, Fraiser, and Home Improvement, and I watch those too :D).

[47] Are you wearing make up?
No. When I do (and it's not often), it's just a bit of cover-up, mascara, and lip balm.

[48] Do you have a tattoo?
No, and I don't plan on getting one.

[49] Have you ever broken a pinata?
No. :(

[50] What time is it right now?
12:14 am

[51] Do you know how to draw?
Uh, I think I do, but others are free to disagree.

[52] Who loves orange soda?
I love orange soda. :D I like to mix it with either grape or strawberry soda even more.

[53] Who is your hero?
Gah, I have so many heroes, and they change all of the time (save for Jesus and my parents, since they're always my heroes). Right now, I'd say Dwight D. Eisenhower, Rorschach, Jackie Earle Haley, Ronald Reagan, and Jennifer Aniston. And maybe Bill Nelson too, since he's impressed me as of late.

[54] Who did you last IM?
I don't IM. ^^;

[55] Do you work a lot of hours?
I spend many hours working on homework, if that counts.

[56] Where were you 24 hours ago?
Right where I am now, in my bed (except I was reading my textbook last night).

[57] Who was the last person that called you?
My dad

[58] Is there anything you regret?
There are many things I regret, and many things I don't regret.

[59] Do you know where your family name originated from?
It's Italian. :)

[60] Animal that creeps you out?
Spiders DX

Third Place: #31 by :iconsilverene:

Honorable Mentions: #16 by :iconyoriuku: and #28 by :iconshadowisper: (they tied for 4th)

Congratulations to all of the winners! :clap: I'll get you your prizes later today.

Also, my sister *HatakeKelley and I got two new boys in our lives: two adorable Blue Rats. :excited:

Photobucket Photobucket

This is Oscar, my rat. Isn't he pretty? At first, I liked my grandpa's name Ike for him ("I Like Ike" Presidential Pun hurr hurr hurr :iconteheplz:), but I later decided that Oscar, my great-grandfather's name, was better.

Photobucket Photobucket

And this is Charlie, Kelley's rat. Kelley always names her rodents Charlie. :D We had gerbils when we were in Middle School.

Although they are brothers, the boys are pretty different. Charlie is very curious, and he loves to explore and try new things. He isn't very content with sitting still, but he loves to climb and play with his ball. Charlie loves Cheerios, and he will snatch food from his passive brother whenever he gets the chance. :XD:

Oscar is more subdued than his excitable brother. He loves to sit in my lap and be petted (which is great, since he is the softest :D). He is not adventurous like Charlie, and he won't try a new food or play with a toy unless he sees Charlie do it first. Oscar's favorite snack is carrots.

Photobucket Photobucket

In fact, here is Oscar eating some pieces of carrot.

Photobucket

Oh wait, don't look, Oscar is grooming himself.

Photobucket Photobucket

Here are the boys in their cage. The second one was taken right after Charlie had snatched a piece of carrot away from his brother (I wasn't fast enough to catch it on film).

Photobucket Photobucket

I put my hand in the cage, and the boys came up to investigate it. Charlie is on the left, and Oscar is on the right.
