Thanks for 10,000 Views! :)

I just wanted to say thanks to those who have taken the time to view my work! You have no idea how much that means to me. Thank you to my new watchers as well, and the kind comments I have received.
I will get around to responding - but I'm having one of those quarter life crises. You know - college, music professors, being an adult, new responsibilities, feeling generally lost.
Anyways!
I've been doing a lot of heavy colored pencil work recently. I recently took advantage of a Black Friday sale and finally got these (I know, I know ... but they were $50 off - and I use them constantly.) :

It was well worth it. There are so many shades I've never used. And, I need them to make Christmas presents for family and friends.
This is the first year I've tried to make a number of large drawings in such a short time for gifts. It's been a task - but I really think my family will appreciate it. I'm doing larger wildlife portraits in the style of this one:
They're getting done, but the speed I have to move at has my brain crawling. I've done so much coloring this past week, I think I'm starting to lose it. I've had to step back today because I realized I was rushing and making mistakes that (literally) cannot be erased with ease.
(Maybe I've been inhaling the prisma dust? I can seriously taste it on my tongue right now. No exaggeration. I've had dry mouth this whole week and I swear that's why.)
So! Hopefully, I'll be submitting again once again soon.
I'm going to take a break now and do some digital art.
Or, you know, practice violin. Because we haven't picked that up until today since two weeks ago (but, hey, I DID play piano for one-too-many-hours). I feel like I lost a part of myself. It felt great to play again today.

Portrait Commissions Open!
3 min read
Hello!
I am opening commissions for the first time today!
The first I will offer are digitally painted portraits from the bust-up.
Examples (More will be added):
I can do stylized (left), photo realistic (middle), and sketch portraits (right).
Sketch portraits can be of either real or fictional people.
If you are asking for a portrait of a real person, I ask you to please provide quality reference photos! This will help me out a lot. Small blurry images will only make the process harder.
When drawing a fictional character's portrait, especially if it is your own OC, I will ask you to provide character sheet references (if possible) and a good, physical description.
If there are certain aspects you want, such as a particular composition or color scheme, I ask you to tell me about this as well. The more information, the better! I want your commission to come as close to your vision as possible.
Pricing is as follows:
Sketch Portrait: $15
Stylized Portrait: $20
Photo Portrait: $25
Please privately message me first to discuss your commission if you are interested. Don't be afraid to ask any questions!
Once the commission is set, I will ask for payment upfront via PayPal. From this point, it will be completed within 2 weeks time. You will receive a copy of the full file via email.
[I am sorry, but I am not able to negotiate prices. Given that each piece (even a sketch portrait) takes an average of 5 - 10 hours, I believe I am asking for reasonable payment. I am a still a student, and I need the support.)

Complete!
Human Portrait (Realism)*: (0%)
Digital:
Fictional Female Portrait, Front Bust: Complete!
Fiction Female Portait, 3/4 Bust: 50%)
Fictional Male Portrait: (45%)

Hey guys! So, I just made a Facebook page a few days back. I'd love the support if you could provide it! I'll be posting current work there, as well as studies and older things. I'm not sure how it will compare to my page on DA, but it's still developing. Thanks!
