Support a Young Starving Artist

Donation protected

DONATIONS ARE WELCOMED, PROMOTION AND/OR BUYING MY ARTWORK WOULD BE BETTER FOR ME AND YOU! :)

Hey everybody! My name is Tanaé and I'm a 22 year old portrait artist living on the south side of Chicago. For the past year and a half, I've been trying to really get my business going and build up my brand. After three years of college, I dropped out because it worsened my depression and anxiety and I was getting nowhere. The only thing I learned in college is that I could draw! Since discovering my new talent in March of 2013, I've taught myself and grown so much as an artist. I've been much happier since leaving school, but still very broke. Selling my art has been my only source of income for a while, as none of the countless jobs I've applied for has made the decision to hire me yet.

Art [in many forms] is my passion, and one day I would like to be able to live off my art. Nothing would make me happier than to make a living and support myself by just doing what I love. However, because of my long-time unemployment and my debt, I have no funds to really take off. Donations are welcomed, but you and I would both benefit if you decided to buy an original piece of artwork from me instead! Below is the link to my website, my email address, and a link to the Amazon eBook I wrote last year [My eBook is titled "Carousel" and tells the story of a young Black woman dealing with the depression and meeting the love of her life, who is her polar opposite. Urban/Romance/Fiction].

Also, the original Bob & Damian Marley portrait that I'm holding [original is 14x17 inches] is on sale for $2200. Email [email redacted] to purchase it or any other original artwork, or for any other art inquiries.

As you can see, my goal is not to simply take your money, but to get the word out about my work and help decorate your walls! Hopefully we can do business! Thank you in advance :) Please share.
