LILY’S HUGEASS I-USED-TO-BE-AN-ART-STUDENT-BUT-NOW-I’M-NOT GIVEAWAY

yoooooooo so here’s the deal. Once upon a time, I got a master’s degree in fine art. But a bunch of shit has happened since then… namely me becoming permanently disabled……. and because of that, I’m not really able to make art the way I could when I was a student. (I mostly work digitally now; it’s just easier on me.) Anyway, this means that I’ve had a shitton of fine art supplies just sitting around collecting dust! AND I want them the fuck out of my space already… so I am going to give them away! One winner will get everything listed below.

Pictured:

  • 3 new or nearly new watercolor sketchpads 
  • 2 new or nearly new oil/acrylic sketchpads 
  • apx. 25 partially used tubes of acrylic paint (almost all liquitex brand) in assorted colors
  • 1 partial bottle of liquitex gesso 
  • 3 partial bottles of liquitex acrylic mediums (one slow-dri and two gloss medium) 
  • 6 gesso brushes 
  • a shitton of oil/acrylic brushes (assortment of natural bristle, soft natural fiber, and synthetic) plus 1 canvas brush holder. they are used but I took pretty good care of them and they are decent quality. (also sorry for the shitty blurry pic) 
  • 1 palette/paint mixing knife (pictured with the brushes) 
  • 1 set of partially used color conte crayons 
  • 1 large tub of brush cleaner (I know it looks beat up but it’s actually barely used… sigh oil paint makes everything so dirty) 
  • assortment of willow charcoal
  • canvasmaking tools (2 pairs of scissors, staple gun and staples, paint scrapers and canvas pliers)

Not pictured:

  • 5 new or nearly new paperbound sketchbooks 
  • 2 new or nearly new wirebound sketchbooks 
  • apx. 12-15 small canvas boards (they’re kind of scuffed up but still very usable)
  • 3 small premade canvases 
  • 3 sets of small assembled stretcher strips (12 strips total) 
  • 4 unassembled small stretcher strips 
  • small amount of unprimed/unstretched canvas fabric
  • 1 small container of brush cleaner
  • assortment of graphite drawing pencils

Rules:

  • you do not need to follow me
  • likes count as one entry
  • reblogs count as one extra entry
  • winner will be chosen at random
  • I will pay for shipping to anywhere in the US
  • I will not pay for shipping outside the US (sorry about this but I just can’t afford it right now… however if you would be willing to pay your own shipping, you can still enter)
  • you must have your askbox open
  • you must be willing to share your address with me (hopefully that goes without saying but just in case!)
  • I would strongly prefer that these things go to someone who needs them, as in either a.) a current/future/recent art student, or b.) someone who otherwise has a strong interest in art but has trouble affording it. But since I have no way of verifying that, I’m not going to worry too much about who enters.

Even if you don’t want these yourself, I’d appreciate any reblogs you could spare so that more people can see it! The giveaway will end on May 1st, 2015, so good luck until then and thanks for reading!

omg

Not an entry – just a boost! Here ya go kids.

Reblog because it’s STILL IMPORTANT

we care about humanity, we should care about our planet too. 

if you don’t care about anything…well, shame on you. Because even the most selfish person should care about the environment and water scarcity, since all life depend on Earth, and need water to survive.

Be considerate for the sake of your own future

Thank you for reading this long post. 

…and because days are getting hot. Fresh water scarcity is global issue, but now especially for California still under mega-drought, a severe drought yet so few actually care or worry about because we SEEM to have plenty of water. The fountains, the lakes, and with a turn of faucet… but the source is running out FAST.   So let’s make it a habit to conserve and use it wisely.  Avoid unnecessary wasting of water, such as…using water for entertainment.  Doing this is for everyone and for yourself.

The first time he calls you holy, you laugh it back so hard your sides hurt. The second time, you moan gospel around his fingers between your teeth. He has always surprised you into surprising yourself. Because he’s an angel hiding his halo behind his back and nothing has ever felt so filthy as plucking the wings from his shoulders— undressing his softness one feather at a time. God, if you’re out there, if you’re listening, he fucks like a seraphim, and there’s no part of scripture that ever prepared you for his hands. Hands that map a communion in the cradle of your hips. Hands that kiss hymns up your sides. He confesses how long he’s looked for a place to worship and,oh, you put him on his knees. When he sinks to the floor and moans like he can’t help himself, you wonder if the other angels fell so sweet. He says his prayers between your thighs and you dig your heels into the base of his spine until he blushes the color of your filthy tongue. You will ruin him and he will thank you; he will say please. No damnation ever looked as cozy as this, but you fit over his hips like they were made for you.You fit, you fit, you fit. On top of him, you are an ancient god that only he remembers and he offers up his skin. And you take it. Who knew sacrifice was so profane? And once you’ve taught him how to hold your throat in one hand and your heart in the other, you will have forgotten every other word, except his name.
