Hopeful

In the past, I always had to rely on what I made at my table to pay for my hotel stay at Anthrocon...and even then, I was lucky to make enough to pay only one or two nights Anthrocon's new hotel location is even more expensive this year, so here's what I'm doing...

I'm raising money to pay for my hotel stay BEFORE the convention happens! Wow, what a concept To do this, I'll be having 4 commission auctions per month, for 4 months.

The commission is your choice: a conbadge or a mini-commission :) Both conbadge and min-commission will be on 3x4" or 4x3" bristol board, and will be inked and then coloured using markers and pencil crayons. The winner will get to choose whether they would like a conbadge or a mini-commission.

My goal is to raise as much money as I can to help pay for my hotel stay at Anthrocon, so that whatever money I make at my table this year, I'll finally be able to have some spending money and be able to commission other artists :) After all, just because I'm stuck behind a table, doesn't mean I shouldn't have fun too I'm avoiding payments via PayPal, because...it's just WAY too tempting to have money in my PayPal...knowing me, I'll probably spend it all on other things instead of what it's originally meant for.

If you're interested in helping me out, you can find auctions at the link below:

http://www.furbid.ws/cgi-bin/auction/vsoa.pl?usernum=3142&seller=Hollyann

All auctions will be running for 10 days each, with no BIN feature. This is to make sure I get my drawings done in plenty of time before new ones make their way to my art desk

And this post will be cross-posted in my other art archives...My apologies if you see it numerous times in various areas If you'd like, you're more than welcomed to also post the links to my auctions elsewhere too, just in case you may know someone who might be interested in them :)

Thanks! And wish me luck :)
