How long have you been a freelance artist : D
And what Pros and cons do you find doing it

I've done freelance on and off for years now. I was just a teen when I started taking commissions in the form of DeviantART points and I got a couple of IRL commissions too. Nothing major and we're talking, like, a few bucks, lol. I started taking commissioning more seriously as I developed my work and skill along with growing up~

Pros is that you are your own boss, make your own time for work, work wherever and whenever you want, control what clients you want to work with more directly, and of course doing what you love!

Cons is that you are not guaranteed clients and for me, clients are far and few in between at times. On top of that, for me at least, it's not a very stable job, so I do have supplementary income as well.
