Help me keep drawing!

Hi! I really hate making posts like this, but I have realized that my ability to continue drawing in the medium I’ve used for years might not be able to happen anymore. Why? Well, i use a marker system to draw known as Copic markers. (They’re amazing). The problem with markers is that they run dry eventually; and I’ve had most of my Copics for years now. In the past, i would do artwork for the company and they would pay me in product. (One of their main office branches is in my town). However, they no longer need teen art and that arrangement is now null.

Each drawing takes anywhere between 20-100 markers; even a simple portrait takes at least 30 different colors to complete. (I currently own 174 markers that i have amassed over a period of about five years).

But many of my markers are running dry, or have already run dry, which makes drawing much harder then it should be, as i am unable to use my main colors.

I can’t continue traditional art or commissions without my markers; which means i can’t make money through my art anymore. (my digital skills are not very good). And i simply don’t have the money for refills. So, i have made an amazon wishlist with the refills that i need the most. Most of them cost around $7 and can refill a marker up to eight times. I have a few refills i bought years ago that are only half empty. Here’s the link: http://a.co/7DqAP0b

I dont want to make you feel pressured into buying, but i really need refills. The beige and blues are the top priority, as they are the colors i use the most. If you do buy something for me, message me and i will be more then happy to do a free commission!! You’ll also have my eternal gratitude.

My commissions are still open, and my etsy shop is PieFanart if you would rather help support me that way. Again, i really dont want to make anyone feel pressured or uncomfortable ^^”

Reblogs and signal boosts are amazing as well!!!!!!

Thanks, Pie <3
