So, I just started trying to make jewelry. Bought some wire to work with, and I have a buttload of gemstones that have been sitting idle in my house, so decided to make pendant charms.

My first one... is awful. rofl Well, it looks ok from the front, but daaaaang I suck with wire. There's hot glue all over the back to hold it. roflmao

Iiiiii think I need practice. Or a teacher. Or something. OMG wow it's harder than it looks. I think my dream of being able to do pretty curlicues and whatnot is far off. XD

Though I am thinking I should have also gotten a spool of the thicker, 20g wire. I have 24g right now, which is nive for wrapping but if I want to design it bends too easily and is hard to keep still where I want it.

BUT it's an experiment. We'll see where it goes. XD

I may have jewelry to sell soon enough.

WISHLIST:

1. Art of pretty much any of my characters, including my wolf-self/persona/wtfever you want to call it. They should all be floating around in my gallery. If you like I can TRY to unlazy and make a little collection thingy of my own characters, but I'd rather be lazy. rofl

2. Legally obtained (preferrably legal to sell) animal bits - fur scraps, leather scraps, claws, fangs, bones, feathers (natural not dyed plz).... ANYTHING.

3. Pretty much anything I can use in jewelry (jeweler's wire, memory wire, silk or leather cording for necklances, clasps that can be put on the ends of said cord, pre-drilled bead stones or stones I can wrap jeweler's wire around to secure with a bit of glue). I want to start making jewelry and selling that since the dreamcatchers don't seem to be selling.

4. If somebody is so adventurous (which I doubt) a drill suitable for using in bone/stone/glass jewelry that won't shatter what I'm trying to drill (because I have NOTHING of the sort at the moment)

5. If somebody wins the lottery and wants to blow money on me, a digital camcorder. XD If somebody actually gets me one of these I will die of shock. Mostly putting it here as a lol

Message/note me for shipping info if you're actually nuts enough to buy/send me stuff. lol

If I think of more cheapish things I want/need I'll add on later I guess.

I am currently open for sketch and lineart commissions. Only kind of commission I am open for right now, because I can't seem to finish anything in color.

$3 for full-body sketches ($1 if you just want a headshot sketch since those are simple and take me like 5 seconds)
$5 for inked lineart (cleaner lines than the sketches, easier to adapt to color digitally if you want)

I take Paypal and snail-mail, but payment has to clear before I start work.

Please stop making me hit the download button in order to see my deviations at fullsize. Not every deviation has a download button. And Fullview seems to work for me only once a day for the past several days.

Your site keeps breaking.

Please fix it.

Sincerely,
Frustrated Lyrak who really doesn't have to move her gallery for a third time

Okay, so Kesame asked about wishlists from people, so:

Well, looks like the holiday season is up again. Unfortunately, I will not be doing free cards this year. It got to where I was too busy with them, I don't think I can do that to myself again. At least not until I've got a lot more free time and my muse is back up.

I am, however, open for sketch and lineart commissions. Only kind of commission I am open for right now, because I can't seem to finish anything in color.

On a personal note, I am still coughing but the illness itself seems to be gone now. I have a short week at work this week thanks to a vacation day and the holiday, so yay for extra weekend. Which should help with the recovery. Everyone I've talked to who had this mess says it does take a couple weeks after you stop feeling otherwise sick for the cough to go away completely, but I can breathe and I can sleep at night now. Just makes work at the call center a real pain because I start hacking up a lung mid-call. >.<

I was very close to needing a hospital stay. I wasn't actually taking in air properly. On lots of meds now, should be back at work tomorrow (finally!) after being out for what feels like an eternity.

A little nervous that I'll go into fits again but that's what the doctor gave me an inhaler for. If I feel like my chest is getting tight again I can use that.
