RECENT UPDATES

March 1st, 2022
it's MINIPRINT MARCH! pick two bonus miniprints when you join my ko-fi this month! all tiers, international shipping available! details here!February 20th, 2022
i have to move! it's going to be very expensive! i have a gofundme! also, my ko-fi has been updated with new features... :3c

As a toddler, I once ate half a jumbo orange crayon. As a child I never believed in Santa but was fairly convinced I might be able figure out how to either float with umbrellas or slow my descent from jumps by kicking my legs like Luigi, who I had a crush on at the age of 7. If you combine my western zodiac sign with my eastern zodiac sign, I'm two sheep. My body collects chronic ailments and pains with the same enthusiasm a child in a park might collect fallen pine cones. I am disabled, but not in a way the US government cares about.I've always drawn and written stories and stuff, but I didn't get serious until I was 12 and just discovering that fan art was a thing people did and that there was a word (anime) for the specific kind of animation I was becoming very interested in. I took some figure drawing classes in community college; that's the greatest extent of my formal training. I am decidedly Not A Professional and have no intention of becoming one.I am currently living in Oregon with a chaotic neutral entity that demands to watch me shower so she can lick the water off my feet when I get out.

WHAT'S DOODLEMANCY. WHAT DOES THAT MEAN??
It’s doodle + mancy as in the suffix used to denote specialized magic (ex. pyromancy, necromancy).WILL YOU DRAW ME SOMETHING?
I am too dang busy/exhausted for requests or commissions most of the time. Sorry! Sometimes I open them on Ko-Fi, but it's like... real random.WHAT TOOLS DO YOU USE TO MAKE YOUR ART?
2012: Pencil, colored in Paint Too tool SAI with a Wacom Bamboo.
2013: Figured out how to draw with the Bamboo.
2014-19: SAI + an Intuos 4 that a friend generously passed to me.
2020-present: XP-PEN artist 15.6 and Clip Studio Paint.
I make heavy use of poseable 3D models, which I find helps my ADHD-Dyscalculia lil brain with stuff it can't otherwise process very well.

NFTs, Crypto, & Other Web3/Blockchain/Metaverse Garbage
Nope! Go away.Can I Use Your Art To Train An AI?
Nope! Go away.I've developed an amazing and wildly unethical new technology not named above! Can I exploit you with it somehow?
JESUS, NO. GO AWAY.Copying, Tracing, and Edits
Copying, tracing, and editing are perfectly valid and fun ways to learn art skills, just please don't try to pass off copies/traces/edits of my work as your own, it's rude! (Also at the risk of sounding too-self deprecating... I am not one of the artists you should Learn From, probably. ;D)Personal Use
You can use my artwork* as your icons etc. on social media sites as long as you link back to me somewhere visible on your profile. I don't mind if you use my artwork as a wallpaper or even print it out yourself, but do consider buying prints from my shop or supporting me in other ways if you can afford it. !(*Please not drawings I did of myself though, like my comics. That's weird. That's me. You aren't me.)Please also note that using my artwork as, say, your branding for a youtube channel or a shop or something else that makes you money is not "personal use."Sharing on Social Media✦ Pretty please try not to re-post my artwork on platforms I already exist on. Share the posts I've already made! I've tried to make things easy via my tumblr archive/tags and my twitter moments (linked under my pinned tweet). If you can't find the thing you want, please contact me, I can find it or repost it for you.✦ If you're gonna repost: post the artwork UNALTERED, and link back directly to my website. Don't crop or edit out my signature, and don't add your own watermarks.✦ If you use Pinterest or a similar site, make sure you are DIRECTLY linking to the source of the artwork-- a post rather than a page of a blog or something.✦ If you are a news/entertainment site and you want to use my art, contact me with your EXTREMELY GENEROUS offer of legal United States currency! :)✦ Do not feed my art to content aggregators, ex 9GAG, Cheezburger, FunnyJunk, and so on. If I see my artwork all crunched up with someone else's ugly logo slapped across the bottom I will become a supervillain.✦ If you slice up my art and distribute it as "free transparent pngs" or "clipart" or "renders" on your low-rent PNG website, I won't stop at the takedown notice; I'll make sure to track down other artists you've stolen from too. :)✦ Purchasing physical copies of my artwork or obtaining a hi-res copy through my patreon or ko-fi does NOT grant you a commercial license!✦ Contrary to popular belief, the phrases "fair use" and "no copyright intended", and "I found it on Google" are not viable excuses for theft.Why so picky? Don't you want exposure?
Even well-intentioned reposts usually benefit the account that does the reposting more than they help artists! Reposting also divorces artwork further from its source, and that's how you end up finding your own art being sold on Redbubble without your permission... which sucks! It's much better better to just find our posts and share them. Sharing/retweeting/reblogging the original artist's post is more likely to net them new follows. Building our audience = more opportunities to make money off our art = more cool stuff for you to enjoy!

contact email: doodlemancy@gmail.com✦ commissions are closed, sorry!
✦ i do not have time for any kind of long-term work! but MAYBE a zine... wink wonk ;3c
✦ NO UNSOLICTED MARKETING/SALES OF ANY KIND.
✦ do NOT contact me about NFT/blockchain/crypto bullshit, or AI projects. piss off with all of that.

i wrote her a real sad backstory

STORY
It’s been just over a century since the Rift– a cataclysmic event during which a barrier between dimensions tore open, spilling demons into the world and turning much of the planet into barren wasteland.At the climax of a desperate war for arable land, John Sykes and Petra Raskoph fought a duel to the death. Sykes stabbed Raskoph in the eye. Raskoph burned Sykes.

Dragged away to safety by their comrades, both of them survived. A year after the end of the war, they meet again by chance; Sykes, directionless and running low on cash, and Raskoph with a dangerous but lucrative job offer that neither of them can afford to turn down.

Despite her erratic nature, she seems to have a masterful command of magic, and a lot of secrets she's keeping a lid on.She has forgotten something.NON-PLAYABLE CHARACTERS

it is not in my best interests to annoy my audience. i promise i will not email you every day like fucking Best Buy; i'm currently using Mailchimp's free plan anyway so i literally cannot spam you.PLEASE REMEMBER TO CHECK YOUR SPAM FOLDER for a while and mark my messages as "not spam" if they end up there!OK here's the form!

seriously though check your spam folder. set a calendar reminder to do it every week or something. not just for me. i missed a very important hot topic sale once and it was traumatic.

In May 2019, a licensed medical professional wrote me a letter to give to my landlord that says I need a cat for the sake of my mental health. Two days later I adopted Tia, a rescued stray who my boyfriend had bonded with through the pet store he worked at. This page is a shrine to the only antidepressant I've ever tried that didn't make me barf (although she herself is an adept barfer). I also post a lot about her on my personal twitter (if you can tolerate all the kvetching and rambling).

PREMIUM TIA FEATURES:

The envelopes coincide with my typical shop updates: New Year, Valentine's Day, Spring Equinox, Pride, and Halloween. There's currently no set-in-stone schedule! You might get surprise ones once in a while. That's part of the fun!!HOW DO PAYMENTS WORK ON KO-FI?
You can pay with PayPal or Stripe! You'll be charged monthly on the same day you signed up.HOW DO I CHANGE TIERS?
You have to cancel and re-pledge, since Ko-Fi allows you to subscribe to more than one tier at a time. More info here!CAN I SUPPORT YOU AT HIGHER AMOUNTS WITHOUT SIGNING UP FOR MAIL STUFF?
Yes! All you have to do is sign up at the Cool Kid tier and raise your pledge!I'M NOT IN THE USA, CAN I STILL GET MAIL GOODIES?
Heck yeah you can! If you can receive USPS First-Class Mail International you can get my mail rewards! Here is a handy list of countries I can send them to.

If you can't commit to a monthly pledge, a one-time donation gets you 30 days of access to my news/gallery posts! If you're supporting me monthly and want/need to cancel for whatever reason, that's fine; people come and go and it's cool.CAN I SIGN UP JUST TO GET ONE MAIL REWARD I WANT?
If you just want to sign up once for digital downloads, that's fine, but mail goodies are intended as a thank-you for ongoing support, so I ask that people please not sign up with explicit intent to dip before the next payment cycle. I'm not Ipsy or Netflix, I'm a struggling disabled artist who can't work a full-time job. Please be kind! ( ;w; )CAN KO-FI PAYMENTS BE COUNTED TOWARD ETSY PURCHASES/VICE VERSA?
No, sorry!I GOT NO MONEY! IS THERE STILL GOOD STUFF THERE FOR ME?
Yes! I do make public posts, and it's a good place to follow me in case social media websites collapse or something. Also, every once in a while, I go back and make some private posts public, ex. once some new merch is live you can see the old sketches.THIS SOUNDS RAD, WHERE DO I GO??
