Commissions closed indefinitely [some explainations]
2 years ago
Hey everyone
Sorry for the last journal, I wrote it in a rush because I could not follow the flow of messages and requests I was receiving and I felt the need to do a quick update.
Finally I have some time now to explain what is happening.
First of all I want to thank all of you for your support in these years.
Your love and care for my art made me so happy.
But as we say, everything comes to an end.
Who follows my Discord channel, probably remember how a couple of years ago I started having some health troubles related to my eyes.
It's almost 3 years now that I try different cures and did many tests to discover what it was, and I finally got my diagnosis.
I have an autoimmune disease that is causing me bad vision with the conseguence of slight vision loss (ocular sarcoidosis).
Currently I see all blurred from one eye and both hurts terribly and get inflamed every week.
I started some new meds, and while that will contain the vision loss, my sight is permanently ruined.
As you surely noticed, I started changing things around with commission some months ago. I tried to put some limited slot, to make less tedious and burocratic the whole commission process, because my workflow is way slower now and I really needed a change of peace.
But what I realized is that I can't go on this way.
Aside from the risk of not being able to work on commissions anymore in the future, the longer process times and the frustration of not seeing and not being able to draw how I want are disheartening.
I changed profession completely.
I found a new job and I'm dedicating myself to it: don't worry, I'm pretty good at it! :D
I won't stop drawing, I'll just keep art as my hobby and dedicate my free time to draw something I like, doodles and personal projects.
I got another name, and it's completely different from everything that it's related to QuillMoon. Maybe one day you'll find me around again and you'll like that other side of me too! :)
Thank you all again.

I hope you'll be safe out there.
Hope everything goes well with the new job and your vision as well ^^
I'm happy I managed to get something from you ^^
Good luck and take care Quill!
