They're a disabled NB transmasc whose insurance denied them a couple months ago, and they've been selling their art prints to raise money. I think they said something around 20k for the whole thing but with luck we can knock that down with sliding pay scales and financial aid, and make up the difference in the next year or two!

If they have a way to sell prints online, I’d love to buy one.

I'm sure we can figure something out! I think they're still asleep right now, the drag show went until midnight and they went to a bar with a few of the groupsupport group, but they live about 5min away from me and have expressed interest in setting up a web page or even just a Tumblr where people can see their artwork, we just haven't had much time recently to meet and work something out..

Their supernatural fan art sold in about an hour (unsurprisingly lol), and they ended up going around to various artsy booths and trading for things close to the end of pride.

They're a good artist and yet were surprised they sold anything. They're too hard on themselves.

Also commenting so I can check out their art later, if they get something set up!

Commenting so I can check out (and maybe purchase) some art later.
