Hi Folks!
Some of you who know me long enough know that I have been Gothic/Metalhead for a long time. But for a few years (mid 2018-2022) I had this weird phase of self discovery that made me lose myself and find my true self again.
Now in 2022 I slowly went back to that lifestyle I love, the gothic/metalhead style. (Ever since I was a teen I dyed my hair black (and later even purple). )
Newsflash: I recently dyed my hair red and a while later black again. I just feel more comfy that way. This was after I created this sonic FC look:
Now that I dyed my hair and embraced my inner darkness again, I am thinking about changing this a bit to an older design, these two:
I will probably mix these three designs in a way I like it
I hope you like the design I will come up with and I think this one is going to stay the same for a long long time :D
Hello everyone!
I'm an official company and from today on I can finally earn some money,
had to arrange some business stuff for that here in the Netherlands ;)
I'm glad to finally be able to do commissions again! I'm going to make some awesome stuff for you guys! I will be busy doing Webtoon as well but I have enough time to finish enough commissions ^.^
So here's the info you need:
- Send me a note if you want a commission Please don't commission me in this journal.
- Give me as many details about your idea as possible, with links to the characters and maybe a photo of an idea for the background if you choose to add one (or let me use my imagination on it)
- As many characters together as you want, but you will pay extra per character.
- Any extra additions can be asked, but it may influence on the price, depending on what it is.
- I may refuse any commission if I don't want to do it. (there will be a good reason then)
- Pay only before commission, I can't guarantee that you will pay me after I have done all this hard work. Paypal only
- No refunds or changes to the artwork. If you give me all the info I need, that won't be necessary :)
- Prices are calculated from Euros to US dollars.
Just ask me what you would like in a DA note and I will calculate a price for you based on the commission sheet ^^
Any questions can be asked in the comment section of this journal :D

Hey guys!
Here is a follow up journal to the one I wrote a month ago ->>>>
A LOT has happened in the past weeks, and I mean life changing stuff.
I said in my previous journal that I am to be a full-time artist in the future, but guess what?
That future is in a month.
I will explain the whole journey in this journal
It all started when I was still looking for what I wanted to do with my life. I now know that I never believed in myself in the first place, thinking that I wasn't good at anything.
I wanted to quit my job for a long time, but the question was always: what then? what else can I do besides this? This is what made me stay put at the job I don't like. Money was also an issue.
A month ago I thought I could combine my art journey with a random part-time job and I did search for one endlessly. I applied for many jobs and got rejected every time.
And I didn't need just any job, I needed one with at least 24 hours a week so I could make enough money to sustain myself, so I thought.
I finally found a really nice job 3-4 weeks ago, a really creative one (handy work) with perfect work hours and not too far away, and I did everything I could to get it (even talking to my boss about quitting earlier to get the job) and still got rejected.
This got me thinking: Is the universe telling me that this is just not it? That I am wrong about finding any random job will make me happier? Yes, the universe was right.
I made one final (test) move by talking to my boss about working less hours, 2 days instead of 4 a week. I would make comics for him (he wanted that for some reason) and explained I would be able to work much better and more efficient. I thought he'd have little reason to disagree... well I was wrong again! He said he did not see the use of it for the company.
This made me a little mad and disappointed. So I had to see it coming. I was pretty down and felt like crap (for weeks already but this was my breaking point).
This was the point where it all made sense, I was avoiding my biggest hobby and dream, all because of money and fear of the unknown. The thing that held me back was not knowing if I could live as an artist or depending on my boyfriend financially (for a while).
From this moment on everything just felt so much better and natural, I got my first traditional commission already and now I'll be making my first digital commission!
My boss had no issue with me quitting my job and wished me luck
Everyone is very happy for me and believes in me I think I found my place in this world!
I also hope that our folkmetal band Annrys will get famous one day, that would be really cool!
Money shouldn't be the issue, I have enough savings to go on for a while, but I think that enough money to live on will come eventually. As long as you do what you love and believe in yourself you can achieve anything
I also wrote this as a little inspiration for others that are dealing with the same things <3
Now I just have to finish up my work at my current job that is ending July 31st.
And I also have a holiday coming up in a week Going to Italy <3
So I won't be uploading much till then, but after I'll make art everyday
Hope you're also doing fine! Let me know in the comments
Hey guys! This is my first time writing a journal on the new DeviantArt (I have to get used to this )
It took me a lot of time to figure my life out and find my dreams, and it turns out they were always there. I just didn't believe in myself and thought I could never be who I wanted to be.
Always making excuses because I was confused, sad and depressed. I'm sorry for this you guys! You have been so patient and kind to me and I appreciate all of it very much!
So I was actually struggling with depression for a long time and I did not realize this until recently. This is why I wasn't online much and kept switching from offline and online very fast. I do not like admitting that I was struggling since I always want to be strong ^_^'
I always told myself I could never make a living as an artist, believing in failure. But truth is, if you believe you are going to fail then you will. If you believe in your dreams and in yourself then anything is possible! And I always ignored this fact.
For a change I also changed my username to Nyoko-Wolf (can you believe NyokoWolf was already taken???)
debsie911 was just a name I came up with in 2011, meaning I was about 14 years old... Oof.
I think this new name will be good for me and I will continue to be a core member of Deviant.
Hope you will still be here with me as well for the next years! And I hope there will be lots of new people!
So some other information:
I will be making lots of #commissions (commission sheet will be online soon)
I aim to make a living out of art one day, this is my dream.
I will make #digitalart too ( I bought a nice new tablet - Wacom Cintiq 16 )
I will have a new part time job to support myself as long as it takes (I want to leave my current job) I'm still looking for one at the moment.
I will invest a lot of time in drawing <3
