[ General information ] ♞ [ Commission info ] ♞ [ Open slots and commission status ] ♞ [ About me ] Dear friends, patrons, and watchers!
Last time I told you that skyrocketing food prices and our government's decision to significantly increase electricity and gas bills put me in a very bad financial situation. This has also led to a lot of anxiety and a relapse in my depression.
After increasing my antidepressant dose and thinking through my options, here is what I concluded: I need money one way or another, but I don't want to start growing my commission backlog when I already have several illustrations in it. So the only option I see is that I will try to constantly pick up small jobs like busts and portraits (and perhaps raise prices first). 3-4 of those a month should, for the moment, give me some safety.
Of course, this sadly means my illustration backlog will take longer, and I'll have even less time for personal art. But I simply have no choice - unless I somehow get a decent amount of money by some miracle.
So this is what I'm going to do now.
Also, any bit of support is greatly appreciated. You can donate through KoFi or the Shinies, or you can join my Patreon for ongoing support (occasionally has extra content like sketches and WIPs). Thank you for considering! And of course, thank you to my existing Patrons, your help means a lot and makes a difference!
