[Image description: A list of commission info with examples of my work displayed beside prices. In the top left corner is a humoid raccoon in orange suspenders and khaki pants Will Smith posing at a title that reads “Theo Grifalinas’ Pay Me Money To Draw Things”, with contact information below this. (Note: all text information is listed in the body of the post.)

The bottom half is several different types of work I offer. First from the left is a man posing with a staff. His right side is full color, while his left has been whited out. Prices are listed for color and no color headshot, upper body, and fully boddy. Next is backgrounds; the top half of this is two figure drawings with abstract colorful backgrounds behind them. Below is a forest backdrop.

The right hand side features animal prices on top, with a cartoon raccoon and a more refined drawing of a cat. Below are book covers. One is square with the words ‘Warm Waters’ in fancy cursive lettering on a backdrop of the sun setting over the sea. The second is a book cover format, with the silhouette of a castle over a backdrop of rolling hills, and the title “The Witch and the Unicorn”.

The background of the sheet is a static visual in varying shades of orange and teal. End image description.]

New year, new commission sheet!

Hey guys, I’m Theo Grifalinas and you, yes YOU, have the ability to pay me money to draw things! Price listings below, I know the text is kinda hard to see on the commission sheet.

I offer headshots, upper body, and full body, color and no color, basic and complex backgrounds, and book covers both full cover front and back and small album-style covers.

Price listing:

Headshot: No color 15$ || color 2o$ Upper body: No color 25$ || color 3o$ Full body: No color 35$ || color 4o$

Add a background: Basic 5$ || Complex 2o$

Animals: Cartoony (very stylized, best described as “not what the animal IS, but what it BE”) 2o$ || Refined (still stylized, but considers the actual anatomy and shape of the animal in question) 35$

(If you’re wondering about the disparity: With basic backgrounds and cartoon animals, I don’t spend that long getting them right. Complex backgrounds and refined animals take a lot more work and attention to detail, and thus need higher payment.)

Want a cover for your book or fanfic?

Album-style: 15$ Book cover: Front cover 2o$ || Front and Back 25$

(Back cover will require you to provide a short 3-8 sentence summary. I can offer both standard digital and wattpad cover sizes. There is no difference in price between the sizes.)

I am willing to take on nonhuman figures; prices may be higher for a figure type I have less/no experience with. This will be negotiated at the time of request.

I do not offer nsfw or gore. I reserve the right to refuse any commission based on factors I have no previously considered.

If you have any questions or comments, feel free to contact me here, or through one of my other available channels.

Examples of my work can be found below the cut, as well as on my Pillowfort @ grifalinas, or through my art tag on tumblr pirate draws stuff.

People ask me why I’m moving to Washington and I vaguely say Oh well I got people there and they nod and wish me luck, or if we’ve been bantering a bit I’ll say a blunt I want to get as far away from here/my family as the continental US will allow and they laugh and agree, and I chew on the words I want to say, that I don’t feel welcome in this place, where all of the people like me are silent and distant and the god of my mother spites me from every brick

Last time I went to DC I had three layovers and I could tell when I was back in the south because there was Bible propaganda everywhere. It was an airport. A public space, plastered with Christianity. I get asked what church I go to, a customer invited me to go visit her church. She meant well. I’d been helpful to her the last few times and that was the kind of kindness she knew. Invite someone to your church, into your space, into the fold. But I don’t trust those kinds of things. I don’t trust people who will look at me with my rainbows and my buzzed hair and my he/him lapel pin and not think that maybe I might have some poor relationship with their god. That their god isn’t welcome to me because he isn’t welcome to me.

I’m moving to Washington because I want to go somewhere the god of my mother isn’t lurking on every street corner.

Gonna do a supernatural ya romance novel except instead of the Angsty Broody Vampire Bad Boy and the Big Friendly Good Werewolf Boy vying for the Quirky Girl’s affections, the Quirky Girl is BIG THIRSTY for her two best friends (she figures she can get ONE of them into her) and they hate each other, at least partially on the grounds of the boatloads of ust they’re spewing at each other.

“So, Quirky Girl, why did you decide to come live with your dad and transfer schools?”

“Well, it’s not so much that I ‘decided’ to as I kind of had no choice. I got in trouble for fighting at my old school.”

“Oh? What happened?”

“Ranette called me a girl so I shoved her off the bleachers.”

“…you are a girl.”

“Hey! Those are proven fighting words, mister!”

The angsty broody bad boy is her childhood friend, which is imo the only explanation for why she’s willing to put up with his angsty broody bad boy bullshit for so long.

Meanwhile the big friendly good boy is her new friend at her new school and is so easy to like because he’s so! Likeable!

Also they’re both cute as well.

i feel like the reason everyone makes fun of trans men & men-adjacents is because the face of the trans male community is an upper middle class white boy, but that doesn’t excuse the way that people relentlessly mock “kai he/they”s and like, Basic trans boys. or infantilize them. like there’s joking about common coincidences between trans men and then there’s literaly transphobic stereotyping that erases trans men of color from the conversation. what im trying to get at is if youre cis stop making jokes about how every trans guy has a galaxy binder and is named skyler and plays ukelele and is a softboy because 1) those things arent even bad, 2) the trans men you have come into contact with are majority white and they are not the only people in our community, and 3) its not your fucking place to joke about trans people. 

cis people can reblog but dont add on

Does anyone remember that post that used to go around that was like “trans women name themselves things like -list of elegant and poetic words- and trans men all name themselves like they’re drowned Victorian children” and that was supposed to be like. Some tongue-in-cheek affectionate ribbing and it feels like that kind of thing. Like how even our names are subject to ridicule and infantilization.

I remember seeing that, and it wasn’t well-intentioned. More intra-community hate a-la “trans women are goddesses, but trans men are garbage”

I don’t know how to explain this to you but someone using two different labels that you personally think are mutually exclusive is not inherently “self-erasure” or “internalized bigotry”
