Artist In Need - Tumblr Posts
Please Read And Share
I know it may not seem like it sometimes, but I'm really not a fan of asking for help so this is a big deal for me. But my job is currently only giving me 8 hours a week and with nobody to ask for help, I have to turn to you guys.
I can't afford my rent and other monthly costs of living. My commissions are open and eagerly accepting, but even so, I can only write so fast. For anyone willing to help my commissions, kofi, and gofundme will be linked below

PLEASE HELP: SIGNAL B*OST, D*NATE, OR C*MMISSION ME!!
Listed below are the TL;DR, How to Help, and Full story/Context. I’m sorry I had to resort to this but i have no other choice.
TL;DR version
Please help a mentally disabled fan artist’s family to pay for medical debts for c*ncer, insulin, maintenance meds (for depression, anxiety, etc), and cat food
How to Help
D*nations!!! - I only have P*yPal (also thru K*-fi) and GC*sh! Please dm me for the link or QR code
C*mmission me!!! - I really hate asking for help with nothing to give in return, so preferably please c*mmission me. I havent updated my new set of c*mmission sheet samples BUT heres a short, quick version attached on my post as a pic.
B*y my let-go collection of merchandise!!! (PH-based only please and sorry) - In order to try and make up for the em*tional ab*se me and my mom have to go thru on a daily basis just by living with dad, I ended up in a downward spiral and tried to buy things impulsively since 2020. So, now, we’re paying the price and I have been deeply regretting it ever since. So, plsase please please help buy my palugi (selling for a loss) let-go merchandise, theyre mostly official and am selling for a loss, we badly need the space and especially the funds. Weve only sold less than a half of my stock and it doesnt help that my dad keeps mocking me about it.
Share and S*gnal boost!!! - Tumblr is the only site where i have somewhat of an audience. Please please please help reblog, share, and signal boost.
Full Story/Context
Hi, I’m Theresivy (Teh-reese-ivy), I have been depressed and mentally impaired (among other things) who draws art as a multifandom self-taught fan artist, As of 2020 my mom’s tumor has turned into cancer that has only been given medical attention to in 2022 onwards. And as of then, i have indefinitely become a N,E.E.T for my mom and our finance’s sake while being there by her side. As of now she has gone through FOUR surgeries because more and more unexpected complications keep popping up. She doesnt deserve this, why couldnt it have been me,
We live with my emotionally abusive and manipulative dad (her husband) and our two fur daughters Pancake and Waffles (of which my cats and mom mean more than the world to me) while being forced to live in one of the countless apartment complexes my equally abuse maternal uncle (and his wife, my maternal A-I-L) as we have no other choice. And as such, my dad has been kissing their asses since we were forced to move here more than five years ago.
Both my uncle and my A-I-L took it upon themselves to become the defacto head of my maternal family ever since my maternal grandmother passed just because he became rich thru the means of evil entrepreneur practices. We cant do anything lest we want to get kicked and live on the streets. He is a real-life mastermind as he is always a few steps ahead of us, even making it so that his eldest daughter became his perfect pawn of being his personal lawyer. He always has connections and to them we are merely insects.
My parents and the rest of our family dont really see “artist” as anything that could get money rolling in (and day by day my failed attemptes have been proving them right), and on top of that, they see me being depressed and such as being the “freeloading couch potato”. So they keep bringing up how much of a failure I am. Weve been living in such toxic conditions that my mom has developed this sort of stockholm syndrome type relationship with my dad, and her younger brother (my uncle), and his wife (my A-I-L, her S-I-L). At first i thought i could try and save mom but shes too far gone that she strictly forbids me from fending for myself whenever either of the three try to berate me and drive me to tears and breaking down for the fifth time every week.
All i wish now is to be able to pay back at least some of the debt, for my mom and my fur daughters’ sake, and hopefully my own. I have been in a downwards spiral ever since i have been tolerating being the “odd one out” kid from school. in general, and even in the family, its been literal years and my entire life, im tired of being used and tossed to the side, im tired of being the punching bag of a cosmic joke, and im tired of my disabilities. im tired of being useless to the people i care for the most. so please. help us.
My wish now is to be able to help mom and our fur daughters move away from our domestic ab*sers. everything is an endless spiral of dead ends and im sick of it. ive been self sabotaging for years but a small part of me still has hope, please. i dont want to believe that this is where it ends for us. in this world of darkness and cruelty that spits on our faces, only my mom and our fur daughters have shown me the smallest glimpse of happiness. and even then ive failed them by becoming a barely functioning patient of depression. so, please, dont take my sunshines away.
Emergency $5 chibi sketches (open)
Hiiii my account is getting low and I have meds to buy, as well as a small medical bill that needs to be paid, so I'm temporarily opening these up!

hi I hate to do this especially in the midst of a global crisis but I'm currently away from home on a trip and I was just notified today that I'm not getting my (very measly) monthly allowance by the government that was expected in by Friday.
i am in no high danger or urgency and have money for now however i will be extremely low on funds by the time i would've gotten this payment and have concerns about needing to book extra nights and a train home. if you can spare anything or even reblog it is always heavily appreciated.
thank you

Anyone recommend a type of glue to stick this drawing onto the black background?
ATTENTION PLEASE
I am writing this a second time because the first I just got so frustrated. I hate asking for help like this but I don’t have much other choice.
I am running short on money for my rent this month, rent I can’t afford to not pay. I just started a new job and I won’t get any pay in time. Please. If you enjoy ANY of my content and have something to spare, please I could really use your help. I hate making posts like this. But damn i need it.
So please, if you could please spare anything on my Ko-Fi or my RedBubble, anything is appreciated.
IMPORTANT NOTICE!!!
Hello everybody, as you may be aware of, I have a second job that is stressing me out and draining a lot of my time… I know this might sound like I’m whining or complaining again but bear with me.
This job has been draining most of my energy since the past year and as you might know my drawings are less frequent then usual. Things I usually loved are getting me depressed as I have to rush through my project to get it done. It’s not a chore, but it is pressuring me quite a lot with the situation I’m in at the moment. I WANT to keep the quality of my content and I want to bring smiles and emotional reaction to those who read my work.
Paper Crane’s comic have been a project I’ve loved since day one and I’ve been looking forward to do a weekly update and produce more content… but with my second job, it’s been harder and harder to even produce a page in time.
I do not want it to feel like a chore when it’s something I used to love a lot… My time interacting with you guys or anyone else that matters has drastically decreased as well… and it breaks my heart to not be able to emotionally be attached or want to spend more time with the people I care about. I’ve been working to move out of my situation, but I’m being forced to work a job I hate because my living situation has been an over-complicated mess for far too long, and now I have two options - keep working the way I am and be miserable, or do what I like and be kicked out of my house, where I won’t be able to save for my move like I’ve planned.
I’m super thankful to all the Patrons who have stuck with me so far, though it’s far from sustainable. I wouldn’t mind to do 2/3 commissions a month to compensate from the lack of money, but it wouldn’t be enough even then, because of how things are right now. I know I’ve talked about it a little bit here and there, but I really prefer to not burden everyone with the details.
So… I hate to ask for this… but I need your help… I love drawing, it’s been my life since I was little, and I would hate it if it turned into something that I cannot enjoy anymore because my second job drains the life out of me. I would be more than grateful if you could help me enjoy working on my things again and remove that pressure my family had imposed me for the past year…
I would highly appreciate it if you could share this, I don’t think I ask much but for you to share the words that I need help, that I have a Patreon available with private contents.
If my goal is reached, I’ll do a weekly update of my comic, if it’s reached, I’ll do some commission on the side… please consider my PATREON.
Unable to support myself, but going to spread awareness for this!
Hi! 💖 I am opening emergency commissions because I have to pay rent tomorrow and I have no money! We are really struggling. My partner’s bank account may be compromised because of phishing, a family member I love very much is in hospice care so I can’t work, my partner needs dental work we can’t afford, we don’t qualify for rent assistance, and a million other things are happening all at once.
So let me draw your guy! I would love to draw your little guy. I can draw OC, fan art, IRL ppl, etc., and I’m really good at tabletop rpg characters. I can draw any body type, skin tone, or outfit. Whatever you want! Full payment up front through any of the following:
cashapp: https://cash.app/$klaarg
venmo: https://venmo.com/nkraepel
paypal: https://paypal.me/klaarg
message me here or email [email protected] for your inquiry! Donations of any kind would be very helpful. please reblog!! thank you so much 🙏💖
