Hey everyone, I just wanted to let you all know that I've got a Ko-Fi set up. In addition, I have opened up sketch commissions.

My father passed very suddenly late last year, and since I had been taking care of him full time because of his poor health for about five years, my savings have been completely depleted after making funeral arrangements and moving out of an apartment I could no longer afford. Unfortunately, my father had no insurance in place for these events, so things have been very dire for my younger sister and I.

I know almost everyone is going through some tough times right now, and a lot of us are in a hard place, but anything that can be thrown my way would be an enormous help. Thanks for your time.

I just want to say thank you for all the birthday wishes :] It's been a pretty rough year for me, so it all means a lot. <3 I appreciate all the lovely thoughts you've been sending me!

I've noticed that much of the time, my art is being reposted on tumblr with a link to the deviantart post - despite the fact that I say explicitly in nearly every post NOT to reupload my art on any other website, and have for a couple years now been providing a direct link to my own tumblr post of the art in question for reblogging purposes. While it's better to be sourced than reuploaded without my name attached at all, I still go out of my way to say not to do so, and make it really easy to just reblog it from tumblr, so it's really aggravating to see people reposting my work who clearly haven't actually bothered to read and respect my simple wishes.

What I'm asking is that if anyone comes to my deviantart page via a repost of my art with a link to this page or to the deviantart post, PLEASE LET ME KNOW. Either in a message here or in an ask on tumblr, PLEASE give me a link to the post that brought you here so I can have it removed and point the reposter in the direction of my original tumblr post.

I know it seems ridiculous, but it's something that means a lot to me, and I'd really appreciate it if people would do this. Thanks so much.

<3 Katya
