Big changes for me and art next year [Life update]
4 months ago
General
Firstly I wanted to say a massive thank you to all those that have shared, commented, and donated to me in the last couple of months regarding my bill and tax problem I'm happy to announce I'm all tax free now and I could not have done it without you guys, I appreciate every single one of you for helping in whatever way you could as I know it's very tough at the moment for a lot of us. But something big is happening next year which may help me avoid such problems..
As some of you may be aware I've been job searching for most of last year, I've noticed the drop in commission interests due to soooo many reasons that are just out of my control and just seeing that this won't work full time anymore sadly, I've been building my art business for nearly 10 years now which is incredible as I never thought I would be able to make a living out of it especially for this long! But I think it's time to shut that door for now or at least leave a small gap open, meaning, yes, I finally got a job!
What does this mean for art???
Stuff like patreon rewards will be unaffected (or at least I'm hoping) , commission openings however will most likely be rarer or less common compared to before as this role is full time and I want to take this opportunity to get some well needed rest and even focus back on what made me fall in love with drawing and doing my own thing like I used to and show off more of my interests. I have alot of goals and hobbies and such I want to catch up on plus this is going to be rather taxing on me for the first month or so as I get settled in. I'm very excited regardless though plus I'll still be posting art. ;)
Basically any owned art is going to be done before I start my induction (which is near the end of Jan') then commissions will be closed unless I announce otherwise which I will do on here, X, Bsky, or my patreon server and when open, very limited.
This is honestly a huge step for me as the last time I had an actual physical job was back before lockdown so I'm both nervous and excited to take this big step but it will be so worth it and I can stop stressing about if I can make ends meet. ^^
Again thank you for all the years of support and encouragement and just every little comment, like, share, etc you guys really rock and like I said, I'm not gonna straight up disappear I will be around just here and there and probably collapsed on my bed whilst the cats sit on me.
❤️🐺
I look forward to when you do open up here and there, as it is always lovely seeing your work and having a chance to commission ya! Just be sure to keep that work-life balance, you're the priority ❤️
Glad you got your tax situation sorted out, I think I speak for most when I say; fuck taxes XD
yeah taxes can eat my ass honestly.
Happy new year and all the best!
