I am from NY, now living in Guatemala for the last 7 years. I remember clearly 5 years ago when I started having financial trouble, starving eating a can of tuna a day thinking I am 41, time is passing, I need to get myself out of this situation. I was working at a hostel for $2 an hour. My only real skills were my art. Working 6 days a week, I woke up at 3 am...created my art until my hostel shift started. When I returned home, I would continue my work. I did have suicidal thoughts, but there was a thought that got me through it. I really like who I am, I don't want to die. I just want things to get better...

This motivation paid off. My Instagram grew to 7k followers. I had commissions, which meant no more starving on a can of tuna a day. Like, everyone, I know Covid hit. I found myself out of work, and no commissions for my art. I had to ask my father who has stage 4 cancer to lend me money where he could. That was and still is horrible for me!

When I go to take a shower cockroaches to fall on my head. I wear my clothes a few times to save money washing them. I am back eating a can of tuna a day. I would be thankful to wash dishes in a restaurant, or any job, but I live in a small town. There are no opportunities.

Please really look at my art. If you like it, press like. It means the world to me. Maybe I am not a good enough artist to provide food for myself, I might be delusional. OR I am not. I am coming to you from my soul. If I can get featured here on Bored Panda, maybe I can pay back my father, and have food on my table. Let’s see what we can accomplish together. Please help me if you believe my art is worthy to support me. I am not asking for a handout. Only a like if you feel my art is deserving.
