Buy Art, Help Good People

I’m reposting this for an artist I know, Amelia Royce Leonards, whose fiance was diagnosed with a brain mass. Her art is gorgeous; I bought a piece years ago and have just ordered some more. If you want to support a good cause and have beautiful work in your home, consider supporting her (or her artist fiance, Max).

Hey everybody-

I’ve been told I’m at my best when I’m “hysterically blunt”, so I’m just going to go for it. My wonderful fiancé, @maxmartelliart, is in the hospital with a brain tumor/cystic mass/unidentified object. Sadly, they refuse to let us take it home and put it in a jar. Yes, of course we asked.

Things aren’t going great, but we’re hopeful it can be removed successfully and that he’ll be just fine. And that he can soon be rescued from hospital food. (Ask me anything about the signature bran muffin- personally I think it’s weird to tout a bran muffin as the signature dish of any dining establishment, but hey.)

This is going to be a multiple week ordeal, so my posting may be a bit spotty for a bit as we figure things out. If you’ve been staring at a blank space on your wall and thinking “wow this needs a Bast print or a Frankenstein monster,” then please take this opportunity to wander over to www.Etsy.com/shop/maxmartelliartorwww.Etsy.com/shop/ameluria to fulfill that need. (Max muttered “hospital bills” to me this morning and suggested we remind people that we sell art.) Usually I’m more subtle with my salesmanship, but this is kind of a desperate situation, and I’m less subtle when others are involved and I’m worried.

I hear there’s some kind of Etsy strike happening soon- unfortunately it’s my only income stream and we’re dealing with major brain surgery and hospital bills in America, so while I support those taking part, I cannot. Now, if you’d like to buy something from us directly and avoid Etsy on principle, that’s totally fine, just let us know.

Max ALSO has a Patreon,
Www.patreon.com/maxmartelliart , and it’s a delight.

Thank you everybody for being here and supporting what I do- following and liking and commenting may seem like small actions, but they’re not. If you all hadn’t shown interest in my work, I’d have never tried to do this professionally and gotten to sample the odd and joyful life of a full time artist. Max would also like to do the same one day, so we need him to get better so he too can follow his dreams. Also get married. We’d like to get married this summer as planned, with a lot of chocolate chips.

Thank you.

Medical Expenses for Max Martelli, organized by Amelia Leonards

They’ve since started a GoFundMe—but art is definitely still available for purchase!!

I’ve never made one of these so I found it fitting to do one with my recent piece.
